Kung Fu movies for foreigners

At the movie theater on the weekend, the tickets for Iron Man were only after 9 o'clock. In order to live up to the ten-meter long queue, I had to watch the King of Kung Fu.
I don't know how the King of Kung Fu's box office is in the United States. It seems that it only made the third film this week. The question is, is it really bothered by people who have been selling such metaphysical things for so many years? I'm getting sick of watching it. . . I suddenly remembered that the current vice dean of the School of Architecture had commented on a few Chinese-American planning professors in the United States and Canada in the first few weeks (for the sake of courtesy, I will not name them), saying that they were just talking about the situation in China and then returning to China. Talking about Western problems, if you really discuss China at home or go to the devil to evaluate the local situation, I am afraid that it will not come to the point at all. Forever half-hearted, you can only be an expert on the other side. . . Kung Fu is such a film, Jackie Chan can even tell that his mouth is in English, and after watching it in ten minutes, he knows that it is a Kung Fu film for foreigners, and then he talks about pseudo-myths that people don't understand at all. All the plot changes that make no sense are used. To cover up the past with legends, it really takes the audience for fools. . . Moreover, it is enough to copy the big story Journey to the West, anyway, foreigners have never seen it. Don't you blush when you copy The Chronicles of Narnia, Li Bingbing is the bad queen of ice and snow. . . Except for two or three fight scenes, there is almost nothing to watch, but it is a pity that the two kings of kung fu. Just looking at the movements, Jackie Chan's Hong Kong style martial arts moves are fancy and the movements are more exaggerated. Jet Li was neat and tidy, not sloppy at all, and even the movements of the sleeves were minimal. I'm a techie, so naturally I prefer Jet Li's realm, but I also admire Jackie Chan's sincerity. In short, the two of them fight very well. Maybe considering that the plot was too bad, several fight scenes were deliberately emphasized. As a result, the fights in the two-hour film were too long and tedious at the end. The husband even slept for a while during the fight, can't be counted Fail. . . snowy. . In short, it is not a question of whether to go to the cinema, or it is not worth watching at all. . . Ugh. . .

The Forbidden Kingdom quotes

  • Lu Yan: A musician can have Kung Fu, or the poet who paints pictures with words and makes emperors weep, this too is Kung Fu.

  • The Silent Monk: Learn the form, but seek the formless. Hear the soundless. Learn it all, then forget it all. Learn The Way, then find your own way.
