Warriors of Virtue (1997):Dir: Ronny Yu / Cast: Angus MacFadgen, Mario Yedidia, Marley Shelton, Jack Tate, Doug Jones: Represents the doing of good and prevention of evil but its violence is aimed at those poor folks who enjoyed Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Both films resemble each other tremendously with the exception that this junk never caught on. That is due largely in part that this is eye candy crap. Children attending were introduced to such terms as "sh*t happens." A boy is sucked into a strange world and encounters the warriors of virtue. They resemble kangaroos and each gain power from nature via earth, wood, metal, fire, and water. Trained by their master to protect their village but the kid obtains a book that can render total power to the enemy. Overburdened with flaws including no plot. The violence is over the top and glorified to the delight of its young viewers. Director Ronny Yu is backed by fine production but the cast overact horribly. Among those who were suckered into starring in this crap are Angus MacFadgen, Mario Yedidia, Marley Shelton, Doug Jones, and Jack Tate. They provide no personalities to these kangaroo looking creatures and it is likely that their contribution will go unnoticed. The Ninja Turtles are slightly more entertaining and have personalities where these creatures do not. The result is a big pointless mess containing no virtue. Score: 2 / 10

I absolutely adore this movie! It's a wonderful family film, it has a great storyline, and the fight sequences aren't all that bad. The only bad thing is when they slow the camera down slightly for effect (and that's not even terrible in itself). The characters are lovable, there are several quite funny parts, and it leaves you with a warm feeling in your heart. Warriors of Virtue is a masterpiece. PS - in case anyone didn't know, the poster at the top of the page is not the poster for this Warriors of Virtue movie. That's the poster for the other version, from either Japan or China (can't remember). The actual poster has Mario Yedidia on it. You can find it on Google :)

So many people are saying that this movie is not worth their time. I am a movie fanatic, and this movie is a perfect movie for people of all ages. It is similar to the Dark Crystal, and many others like it. But what makes this one different is that actual little kids or people with disabilities that have never fit in with the crowd can watch this movie and get some confidence from it. I sure that we all need something or other to show us that we're all right for who we are and maybe that the real message this movie was sending. Go on and think that this movie is horrible, but no matter what I'll show it to my kid and my grandkids, because I enjoyed this movie.

This movie was a riot! A laugh riot at that cause it totally sucked. The movie tried to capitalize on the animals-turned-human-turned-kung fu-masters-turned-heroes trend that was started in 1990 by Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. The animals that were chosen were kangaroos. Kangaroos do not make interesting characters in life and least in the movie.The martial Arts were o.k. but the rest of the movie was bad. so bad that I was asked to quiet down at the theater I went to see because I laughed out hysterically when I saw it. I'm telling you, not even Monty Python made me laugh as hard as the blokes that made this flick. It is awful. From one to ten, I rate it a ten-ten being the worst.
