A kung fu fantasy directed by Ronny Yu and Michael Vickerman, starring Elijah Wood (first film).
A boy is transported to a fantasy world where 5 warriors are supposed to defend the land from evil, using kung fu and the elements of nature.
These films use every kung fu faux pas ever invented. There is tons of Hong Kong wire and shady camera shots. In the first film, the 5 warriors are in Tank Girl style kangaroo suits/makeup. Both films are way over-produced. The plot and characters are cheesy, as is the style. There is some entertainment value, so I'm rating it poor instead of shit.
