Just look at the back

Because I had seen too many negative reviews before, my expectations were very low at the beginning. When I saw that Jackie Chan could actually speak English, I was sprayed. Then I saw that the officer who came to grab the stick (Tianbing?) also spoke English. fell to the ground. The screenwriter is so pitiful, he must hope that this is the world of robot cats, he can arrange for a translation konjac or something to solve the problem of language barriers, but unfortunately this is not the case, so he can only use sturdy foreign languages. Such attitudes need to be explained to deal with language problems.
Jason is a typical fake. He watches kung fu movies all day, but he doesn't even understand a word or two of basic Chinese. Too ignorant. I just watched some Japanese animations and learned a lot of Japanese.
The battle in the Double J Temple is very enjoyable. Yes, both of them are old, and they don't have the style they used to be. I can’t go back to the era when every move and every style of Jingwu heroes revealed martial arts wisdom, and I can’t go back to the era when every punch and foot in Drunken Fist was filled with martial arts humor, but I’m content. In my lifetime, I can see the battle between the two of them, enough, enough. If you pursue too much and pursue too high, people will live very tired.
There is a line that I like very much. Jackie Chan said that if a person can achieve no desire and no desire, then he is an immortal. But, if that's the case, has he ever lived?
In terms of plot, I think it can be completely ignored. In fact, if the plot is eliminated, it will be much better. The most bloody thing is that at the end, it was obvious that Sun Wukong was resurrected, and the screenwriter seemed to suddenly remember that in order to create a love tragedy that the audience likes to hear, they should arrange for Jin Yanzi to die. The screenwriter definitely slapped his thigh and scolded himself why he didn't kill Jin Yanzi before Sun Wukong was resurrected, and racked his brains to figure out how to kill her in a one-sided battle situation. Finally, the sturdy screenwriter who didn't need to explain let the equally sturdy Jin Yanzi do it. Useless duels were successfully eliminated. congratulations. If I were a screenwriter, after writing such an unforgettable script, I would consciously apply for a boxing gym to be a voluntary man's sandbag to atone for my sins.
Finally, for the ending of a love affair that is not uncommon for any movie audience, I can only look in the direction of the other side of the ocean and sigh, because there are too many perfect love stories, and I am so embarrassed today.

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.
