Warriors of Virtue

Rating:
Summary: A good movie.
Review: I wouldn't say that this is the best movie I have ever seen but it is pretty good. The story is interesting and the martial arts is great but it still needs work. If parents let their kids watch it they should be there.

Summary: After my kids rented this 3 times, I had to buy it.
Review: My daughters, age 11 and 6, and my friends 8 year old son went crazy for this when I brought it home from the video store. We rented it twice, viewed it 5 times and they still want more, so I bought it. It's very visually interesting, with a good message...but personally I don't get the attraction...the rating is based on how much the kids love it...and afterall, it's a kids' movie, isn't it?

Review: They used those EXACT SAME kangaroo-people costumes from that movie, in this movie.

Summary: Warriors of bad acting and screenwriting
Review: This DVD was a default choice for my family looking for something that my 11-year old, 4-year old and myself could all tolerate. Tolerable is about the most charitable comment I could come up with. The costumes are impressive, the fight scenes interesting though not terribly original, and the overall premise has promise. Unfortunately, horrid acting, bad script and almost incomprehensible plot ruin what could have been an interesting combination of "Legend" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles". Barely worth the ... rental if you're really desperate and a waste of good optical data media.

Summary: Imaginitive and Fun
Review: This is a fun film and fighting kung fu kangaroos actually looks really good, leaps and bounds better than any of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles films.

Summary: "Th Answer Lies in You, Ryan!"
Review: This is not a "Power Rangers"-style martial arts movie. The fight scenes are WAY more intense & better, plus they don't use corny-looking laser guns, "zords", morphers, etc. This movie is full of martial arts & deep emotion, as Ryan Jeffers struggles to help the Roo warriors & deal with the shocking betrayal of a good friend. The villain, Komodo, is a bit..."eccentric". He launches into confusing dialogue which often seems irrelevant to the matter @ hand. But Komodo is deadly with his wicked-looking butcher knife of a sword! In the end, most of the villains are redeemed & turn good, like when Elysia saves Ryan from Komodo's wrath before being stabbed by the sharp, poisonous claws of Barbarocious, a vicious witch of a woman.This film takes place in the magical world of Tao, a world of wonderful magic & danger (I know that sounds really cliched!) I recommend this movie to fans of matial arts films, or maybe kangaroo lovers!

Rating:
Summary: Great premise, lots of action, no gratuitous killing
Review: This movie will never be as moving as Schinlers List but it has a place as a good action movie. It sneaks in the values we all want to teach or have. It also shows the shortcomings we all have to live with. The "good guys" win but not at the expense of the "bad guys".

Summary: MGM ARE YOU NUTS?
Review: Why did MGM deliver this in a Non-Box format!!! The laser disc is in widescreen why not the DVD. IT was shot in a 2.35.1 ratio and seeing in in 1.33.1 really is a pitty. I bought the disc but as soon as it was placed in my machine I wish I never bought it. Should have bought the laser disc. I WILL NEVER BY MGM again as long as they continue this stupid practice.

On the movie side I liked it very much Ronnie Yu is a great director who can mix action and beauty in the same frame
