Warriors Of Virtue (1997)

Announcement

Let’s just go right to the important stuff here. Starring Angus McFadden, fresh off his role as Robert the Bruce in Braveheart. Special makeup f/x by Academy award nominee Tony Gardner, who not only designed the Daft Punk helmets, but also worked on Zombieland, the Adaams Family, and also designed the GEICO caveman. Score by the Irish band Clannad. Produced by the Law brothers, four physicians with no filmmaking experience, who put up much of the $35m shooting budget themselves. Based on the Tao Te Ching. The first English language film by Ronnie Yu, who went on to direct Bride of Chucky and Freddy vs Jason. Do me a favor and don’t Google it, let’s allow it to work its magic on us. I don’t want to spoil anything, but it’s called Warriors of Virtue, its total budget was $65m and supposedly made a film critic barf at the premiere. Oh, and it’s a kids movie! It leaves Prime tonight at 9pm, so it’s our last chance to see it for free, so let’s do this. 6:30pm Tonight! BE THERE! Again, streaming for free on Prime!
