为<<功夫之王>>写一篇简短的影评
The Forbidden Kingdom(功夫之王)
The Forbidden Kingdom (Chinese: 功夫之王) is a 2008 Hollywood martial arts-adventure film from Lionsgate and The Weinstein Company directed by Rob Minkoff. It is the first film to star together two of the best-known names in the martial arts film genre, Jackie Chan and Jet Li. The action sequences were choreographed by Yuen Woo-ping.
The movie is distributed in the United States through Lionsgate and The Weinstein Company,[4] and through The Huayi Brothers Film & Taihe Investment Company in the People's Republic of China.
Plot
The film opens during a battle between Sun Wukong, the Monkey King (Jet Li), and heavenly soldiers amongst the clouds. It is then revealed the sequence was a dream when a young teenager, Jason Tripitikas (Michael Angarano), awakens in his room plastered with vintage kung fu movie posters. After getting dressed, he makes his way to a pawn shop in Boston's China town to buy some new Kung fu DVDs. There, he converses with Hop (a prosthetics-laden Jackie Chan), the shop's elderly owner, and, while thumbing through some DVDs, he is drawn to a room full of antiques and notices a golden staff. Hop tells him that the staff is to be delivered to its rightful owner and then closes the door. On his way back home, Jason is attacked by local bully Lupo (Morgan Benoit) and his cronies who force him to take them to the store so they can steal some money from the old man. Feeling betrayed, Hop tries to attack the thieves with the staff, but is shot by Lupo (much to both Jason and Lupo's cronies' shock). He tells Jason that he must deliver the staff to its rightful owner. Jason takes the staff and runs from the thieves. On top of a building, he is surrounded by the bullies, with Lupo warning Jason that he "saw nothing" (out of fear Jason may turn them in to police). Before Lupo can shoot Jason, he is suddenly pulled off the roof by the staff and travels back through time.
When Jason wakes up he has been transported back to ancient China, dressed in old-century clothing. There he is attacked by Jade Warriors who try to take the staff away from him. He is helped by the Drunken Immortal, Lu Yan (Jackie Chan). Later that night, seated in a restaurant, Lu tells Jason a story of how the Monkey King caused havoc at the banquet celebrating the Jade Emperor's forthcoming 500 year period of meditation and drank of the elixir of immortality. The Emperor took a liking to the Monkey King and decided to award him a heavenly title, much to the chagrin of the Jade Warlord (Collin Chou), a heavenly general. The Emperor then left the Jade Warlord in charge of heaven before retreating to his period of seclusion. The Jade Warlord later challenged the Monkey King to a duel, and turned him into stone by tricking the Monkey King to set aside his magic staff. But before he was fully immobilized, the Monkey King cast his staff into the mundane world. Lu ends the tale by stating a person known as the "Seeker" will be the person to find the staff and free the Monkey King. Lu and Jason then get into a fight with the Jade Warriors who track them to the restaurant and are saved by a mysterious woman, who turns out to be the Orphaned Warrior, Golden Sparrow (Liu Yi Fei). Golden Sparrow's family was killed by the Jade Warlord, and she has vowed vengeance against him.
The Jade Warlord is notified by his men that they have seen the magical staff. The Jade Warlord then sends his bounty hunter, the white-haired assassin Ni-Chang (Li Bingbing), to retrieve it for him. When Jason wakes up in the morning he is attacked by a person dressed in white clothes, who takes the staff away. Jason, Lu, and Golden Sparrow follow the trail of the mysterious man. They reach upon a temple where the man is meditating. There, Lu confronts the Silent Monk (Jet Li), who was the mysterious man. There they both fight for the staff. The Silent Monk later learns that the staff is meant for the traveler. The four head towards the Five Elements Mountain in a quest to free the Monkey King and destroy the rule of the Jade Warlord.
On the way to the Mountain, Lu and the Silent Monk teach Jason Kung Fu. After crossing a great desert, they are attacked by Ni-Chang and the Jade Warriors, but the four escape on their horses with the staff intact. Ni-Chang fires an arrow into the air after them, and Lu is hit with the arrow and falls from his horse. They take refuge in a monastery where they find out that only the elixir of immortality from the Jade Warlord will heal Lu from his mortal wound. Jason wanting to help Lu, heads toward the palace with the staff to exchange it for the elixir. Once at the palace he learns that the elixir was promised to Ni-Chang if she brought back the staff, but since Jason brought it, he has to fight Ni-Chang to death, the winner getting the elixir. The Silent Monk discovers that Jason has left with the staff and pursues Jason along with Golden Sparrow. Back at the palace, Jason and Ni-Chang fight. Though Jason had developed some skill in Kung Fu, the more experienced Ni-Chang easily defeats him. But before she can kill him, the Jade Warlord orders her to stop and, instead, sets his own men on Jason. The boy's life is once again saved when the Silent Monk and Golden Sparrow arrive (with Lu Yan in the rear being carried by monks from the monastery who join in the fight with the Jade Army with their staffs) and intervene. The Silent Monk duels the Jade Warlord while Golden Sparrow fights Ni-Chang. During the fight, Jason manages to grab hold of the elixir and throw it to Lu Yan, who drinks it and regains his strength and energy. Lu then fights Ni-Chang on the balcony. The Silent Monk is mortally wounded during his battle with the Jade Warlord and throws the staff to Jason. Jason takes the staff and frees the Monkey King from his imprisoned statue form. The Silent Monk dies from injuries and reverts into a golden hair, revealing him to be a magical human familiar created by the Monkey King prior to his imprisonment. The fight between the Monkey King and the Jade Warlord commences. Golden Sparrow tries to kill The Jade Warlord, but is countered by Chi. After a long battle, Jason is able to kill the Jade Warlord while Lu Yan dispatches Ni-Chang by knocking her off the palace balcony, presumably killing her. Jason reaches Golden Sparrow, who thanks him before dying. He is then praised by the Jade Emperor for fulfilling the people's prophecy. As his reward for his bravery, Jason is transported back home to modern day Boston.
When Jason wakes up, he is lying flat on the ground below the building he supposedly fell from and is attacked by Lupo's gang, but this time he uses his newfound Kung Fu skills, fights back, and defeats Lupo single-handedly. Hop, who turns out to be an old Lu Yan because he said that he is immortal is then taken to the hospital (the medics stated that the bullet missed his heart), before Jason leaves the scene, he sees a girl who looks like Golden Sparrow. She thanks him for being brave and tells him she will see him later. She then goes into her store (Golden Sparrow). Jason, surprised but delighted to see her, leaves and goes home, where he practices his Kung Fu on the roof with a staff.

今天看新闻，《功夫之王》成功登陆上周北美电影排行榜冠军，恭喜恭喜。作为一个非港片爱好者的我，也对《功夫之王》充满期待。估计电影拍得不错，IMDB 7.7分，烂番茄63%好评，作为商业片很不错了。
下面翻译一下IMDB上面的此片花絮，原文地址http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0865556/trivia
Based on the Chinese epic story 'Journey to the West', one of the four great classic novels of Chinese Literature. The novel is a fictionalized account of the legends around the Buddhist monk Tang Sanzhuang's pilgrimage to India during the Tang dynasty in order to obtain Buddhist scriptures. Many programs have been based on this tale, such as television show "Saiyûki" (1978), and anime series _"Dragon Ball Z" (1989)_ holds a few loose facts from the same story.
改编自中国神话故事《西游记》，中国四大古典小说之一。这部小说是关于唐朝佛教和尚唐三藏去印度朝圣以取得佛教经文的虚构故事。许多节目都是基于这个故事的，比如电视剧Saiyki（不知道这个是什么），动画片《七龙珠》也是从同一个故事的一些细节扩展开的。
The characters are mostly taken from Chinese mythology and adventure pulps. Lu Yan is a famous Taoist Saint. The Jade Emperor is the ruler of the Heavens in Chinese myth. The Monkey King is from a 16th Century fantasy epic by Wu Cheng En. Golden Swallow was the name of the character played by Cheng Pei Pei in a number of Shaw Bros films like Da zui xia (1966). The White Haired Demoness is the anti-heroine of a pulp novel by Liang Yusheng (filmed twice) with the same title.
角色大多取材于中国神话和冒险故事。Lu Yan是一个著名的道士，战神是中国神话中上天的掌权者。猴王是16世纪吴承恩写的一部神话传奇。角色金燕子的名字来自程佩佩在若干邵氏电影中扮演的角色，比如大醉侠。白发魔女是梁羽生的同名武侠小说的反面人物。
This movie marks the very first collaboration between martial arts masters Jet Li and Jackie Chan.
这部电影标着了两位功夫巨星李连杰和成龙的首次合作。
This is the very first movie that Jackie Chan has made in Hollywood where he hasn't served as martial arts choreographer.
这是成龙在好莱坞制作的第一部不以武术指导身份出现的第一步电影。
This movie went through five script re-writes before it was completed, many of which were done in the middle of filming.
这部电影完成以前重写了五次故事大纲，其中很多是在拍摄过程中完成的。
Jason Tripitikas' last name is derived from Tripitaka, the monk whom Sun Wukong, the Monkey King, accompanied in "Journey To The West".
Jason的姓Tripitikas来自同名小说，僧侣也就是孙悟空，猴王，来自《西游记》。
Just before Sparrow throws the dart at the Jade Warlord, she says "Come Drink with Me" which is the English title of the old Cheng Pei Pei movie.
金燕子将飞镖投向战神之前，她说："Come Drink with Me"，这也是成陪陪电影的英文标题。
《功夫之王》全片有什么致命的硬伤或者不妥吗？没有。但正如时下众多好莱坞商业大片一样，也没有什么特别吸引人、看过之后能让人回味的地方。几个月，几年之后当我们再谈起这部电影时，唯一的话题也就是成龙和李连杰的第一次面对面PK，但从另一方面来说这正是好莱坞投拍片本最大的噱头。《功夫之王》剧情很傻很天真，一个美国年轻爱好中国武术，一次偶然机会得到了孙悟空的金箍棒，从此踏上了归还金箍棒解救孙悟空的冒险之路，一路上遇到成龙饰演的功夫高手鲁彦和刘亦菲演的金燕子，三人和李连杰饰演的默僧一起经历了诸多艰险，终于战胜邪恶势力，救出了孙悟空。（一直没有讲清来历的默僧，到最后才知道原来是孙悟空的一根猴毛逃出天界，为救孙悟空寻找金箍棒）类似剧情的电影电视想必大家都可以找出成百上千部，所以剧情不成为本片的亮点。
既然名曰《功夫之王》又以功夫片、以成龙李连杰两位功夫巨星为宣传卖点，我们再来看看片中的武打场面。《功夫之王》武打场面很多，时间给得很足，各种流派（如螳螂拳、虎拳、醉拳等等）招式多多，看得观众如数家珍，几乎很爽很过瘾。但请注意，是几乎，而不是真的很爽很过瘾，为什么呢？原因很简单：无新意，无重点。无论是前面所提到的这拳那拳，还是两大美女李冰冰、刘亦菲之间的飞镖对长鞭，这些都是我们中国观众看得不要的东西，也许美国佬还没有看够看全，所以本片最近能在北美票房排第一。前期最让人期待的成龙和李连杰的PK出现在影片四十分钟左右，做为目前华人功夫片的两位巨星级人物，成龙和李连杰让谁把谁打趴下都不妥，所以导演精心安排他们打了个平手，如果场边有拳击比赛的裁判，我敢打保票他们两位击打到对方身上的有效点数都是一模一样的！曾经，十几二十年前，成龙的特点是翻腾跳跃，有如杂耍般的搞笑打斗，李连杰动作潇洒、舒展、纯正，一招一式都显示出他是科班出身，但在这部两位巨星年龄加到一块有一百多岁的影片里，不论是成龙的特点，还是李连杰的特点都随着年龄的增大，动作不如以前敏捷而不再那么出彩了，特别是导演为了让两个巨星谁也不输给谁而特意设计的你打我一拳我挨你一掌的PK场面，确实谁也没有输给谁，但同时让观众（至少是中国观众）感觉到的是谁也不再是以前那个谁了。
本片武打场面虽然很多，但给我们的感觉却是为了打而打，没有重点，没有核心，没有真正让人心跳加速的高潮，四十分钟时成、李的PK是为了满足观众对“第一次”的好奇心，相信我们中国观众看完之后达到心理预期的很少，心里想的是：可能最精彩的在最后的在决战吧？可是，事实再一次让我们失望了，那场在玉疆战神宫殿的乱战，不论是杰森VS白发魔女、鲁彦VS玉疆战神、玉疆战神VS默僧、白发魔女VS鲁彦、金燕子VS白发魔女还是玉疆战神VS孙悟空，给人的感觉就是一个字——乱。一部好的功夫片其实并不需要有这么多的乱战PK，特别是最后最重要的终极大战，如果能简单明了的救出孙悟空，让他和玉疆战神来一场大战，突出重点，把心思更多的放在这场决战的武打动作的创新上面，肯定会更好。可惜老外和咱们想的不一样，他们要的是手手抓，手手都要硬，到头来落得个：无新意，无重点 的结果。
虽说是好莱坞制作班底，《功夫之王》的CG特效实在不能让人满意，开场山顶之战的些山峰，还有之后的宫殿、雕像也太假了点，只能说和国内的大片一个档次了。音乐还算不错，至少没有让人特别失望的地方。让人不能理解的是玉疆战神穿的竟然是黄色的龙袍，我想在中国，不管是天上的玉帝还是地下的皇帝都不会允许臣下穿这样的衣服吧？影片最后玉帝问杰森想要什么奖励，回答是：不要什么奖励，只想回家，玉帝居然长出一口气：那我就放心了。我晕！他放心什么啊？难不成怕他找自己要什么宝贝，自己又舍不得给？？这么白痴的对白完全不亚于国内某些大片
剧情上的老套，武打场面上的“两无”（无新意，无重点），再加上两位昔日功夫巨星的风光不再，注定使得《功夫之王》成为不了功夫片中的经典。再加上编剧约翰.福斯科，导演罗伯特.明可夫，这样的好莱坞阵容来拍功夫片，除了满足老外的好奇心以外，真正的中国功夫片的内涵一点都没有体现出来。正如《黄石的孩子》等外国导演所拍摄的中国题材影片一样，《功夫之王》给我的感觉也是：有如隔着一层纱。
武导虽贵为袁和平亲自出马，可是武打场面上的乏善可陈，了无新意，似乎所有的招式都被以前的电影使完了；成龙、李连杰两位功夫巨星的颠峰以过老态渐显，而年轻一代（估且用上年轻二字）打星如甄子丹在表演上的不足、吴京在个人气质及可塑性方面的弱点，都使我们不得不对未来的中国功夫片充满忧虑。我们呼唤纯正的武打电影的回归，少一些在天上飞来飞去，冲击波、火球横飞，一招一式能让观众看得清，辨得明。最近几年的武打片里我个人觉得《卧虎藏龙》里的几段对打和《英雄》里开场不久李连杰和甄子丹的枪剑之战最值得回味，而看完《功夫之王》之后我除了能说：终于看到了成龙李连杰的对打场面 之外，不知道还有什么好值得回味的东西了。
本片武打场面虽然很多，但给我们的感觉却是为了打而打，没有重点，没有核心，没有真正让人心跳加速的高潮，四十分钟时成、李的PK是为了满足观众对“第一次”的好奇心，相信我们中国观众看完之后达到心理预期的很少，心里想的是：可能最精彩的在最后的在决战吧？可是，事实再一次让我们失望了，那场在玉疆战神宫殿的乱战，不论是杰森VS白发魔女、鲁彦VS玉疆战神、玉疆战神VS默僧、白发魔女VS鲁彦、金燕子VS白发魔女还是玉疆战神VS孙悟空，给人的感觉就是一个字——乱。一部好的功夫片其实并不需要有这么多的乱战PK，特别是最后最重要的终极大战，如果能简单明了的救出孙悟空，让他和玉疆战神来一场大战，突出重点，把心思更多的放在这场决战的武打动作的创新上面，肯定会更好。可惜老外和咱们想的不一样，他们要的是手手抓，手手都要硬，到头来落得个：无新意，无重点 的结果。
妙趣横生的情节，，诙谐的小人物题材电影。
