Opening this Friday is the first pairing of martial arts superstars Jet Li and Jackie Chan. The movie is called “The Forbidden Kingdom,” here’s the synopsis:

While hunting down bootleg kung-fu DVDs in a Chinatown pawnshop, Jason Tripitikas (Michael Angarano) makes an extraordinary discovery that sends him hurtling back in time to ancient

China. There, Jason is charged with a monumental task: he must free the fabled warrior the Monkey King, who has been imprisoned by the powerful Jade War Lord. Jason is joined in his quest by wise kung fu master Lu Yan (Jackie Chan) and a band of misfit warriors including Silent Monk (Jet Li). But only by learning the true precepts of kung fu can Jason hope to succeed - and find a way to get back home.

Directed by Rob Minkoff, the film stars martial arts superstars Jackie Chan and Jet Li. The original screenplay by John Fusco is based on the traditional Chinese legend of the Monkey King.Also, the action choreography was done by Woo-Ping Yuen.

Anyway, to help promote the movie we’ve been provided with 7 movie clips and the trailer. Take a look.

IMPORTANT – for some reason the clips (not the trailer) only have half the audio. When you watch you’ll understand. Just know this is not our fault…it’s on the original tape that was sent to us.
