The first real look at the upcoming kung fu extravaganza, THE FORBIDDEN KINGDOM has arrived online and you can check it out BELOW:
Yeah, this thing is like the HEAT of Hong Kong kung fu movies; Jet Li and Jackie Chan! I love how the title card reads ‘A Band of Unlikely Heroes’ and then cuts to Jet Li is his standard pre-fuck-you-up meditation pose.

The film is about a bullied New York teenager (Michael Angarano) who is obsessed with Hong Kong cinema and classic Kung Fu movies.
