If you don’t know what Parkour is by now, you will by the time Prince of Persia rolls out into theaters. Parkour is the art or discipline of overcoming any obstacles by adapting to the environment.

It’s a lot like some of the early chase scenes in Disney’s Aladdin, except without a monkey and of course, live-action instead of animated. Check out the first clip from Prince of Persia below:
