Product Description
Summon your courage, unleash your imagination and prepare for an adventure beyond your wildest dreams. Featuring incredible special effects, thrilling martial-arts action and nonstop adventure, Warriors of Virtue is a dazzling film and "excellent family entertainment" (Paul Wunder, WBAI)! The journey begins when young Ryan (Mario Yedidia), a typical teen, is swept into very unusual circumstances. After an innocent dare goes wrong, Ryan is magically transported to Tao, a beautiful fantasy land whose sole lifespring is defended by the brave, kangaroo-like, kung fu-fighting Warriors of Virtue. But the Warriors may have met their match in an evil warlord named Komodo (Angus MacFadyen) who wants Tao's lifespring for his very own. Can the Warriors stop him before Tao is lost forever? Only if Ryan can find the power within himself to put an end to all the evil.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent movie!, October 17, 2004

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Warriors of Virtue [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The story of WOV is about a boy who always wished he was something more. Ryan is a boy who has a crippled knee, and has always dreamed of playing football and just being normal. His friend gives him a book, telling him it is his way to "finding himself." Ryan scoffs at it, but takes it. But when he is sucked into a churning water pool in a freak accident, it transports him to a world unlike any other. There, he must aid the Warriors of Virtue, a band of Roos who command the forces of nature. In the end, it becomes a quest to defeat the forces of evil, and a journey to find his way back home.

This movie greatly focuses on the idea of not what you have on the outside, but what is inside. Ryan's quest to become stronger on the outside becomes a quest to get home, which can only be done by understanding what was inside him.

5.0 out of 5 stars Imagination, July 20, 2003

By	Crystal (Woodbridge, Va United States) - See all my reviews

I have seen this movie several times, and I still rewatch it. After seeing it the first time rented; I immediately went ut and bought it. This movie is not for some because it takes an imagination to truly enjoy. If you truly enjoy fantasy and a movie that makes you think about the message, this may be one for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars After my kids rented this 3 times, I had to buy it., July 2, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Warriors of Virtue [VHS] (VHS Tape)

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?
