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
