1. Quality

2. Summary

   Barely OK 2.0

   Pretty much what you’d expect from a martial arts film. A straight forward story-line of a 20th century boy saddled with the daunting task of learning Kung Fu and using a found magical weapon to battle his way through ancient China in order to defeat an evil warlord and save a mystical ancient king.

4. Acting

   Barely OK 2.0

   Jackie Chan and Jet Li are maintstays in this film, but Michael Angarano holds his own. Jackie puts in his requisite campy humor which everyone comes to expect, but acting? well… lets not go that far.

8. Male Costars Barely OK 2.0
