there be several thing wrong with this movie brenda song character be one of them . i do not believe that the girl be a lousy actor i honestly do not . i believe she be give poor line . she be just suppose to be and that vain and rich girl and and while it be funny in the tv show she play in and it can not even get a dry laugh from me here . either way and i really should have know what to expect when i sit down to watch this film . the movie be not that terrible . initially . wendy reaction to shen be completely natural . i mean and how would you feel if a man and claiming to be a reincarnated monk and chase you around command you to wear a medallion and insisting that you be need to fight the great evil and save the world . which bring me to another point . i know this movie be entirely fiction and but it be still have a founding in chinese culture . it seem like all of the warrior in wendy family line be woman . correct me if i be wrong and but i doubt that the monk would have just be okay with that . sure and maybe they could have work it in somehow and but they offer no explanation whatsoever . by do so and they just contribute to the many cheesy attempt at female empowerment make by hollywood and the medium . nevermind that and however let u continue . wendy character become more unbearable a the film go on . yes and she be a teenager and and it be near homecoming i mean and who want to fight evil during homecoming . the problem be and when the evil start to manifest himself and wendy do not seem a freak out a she should be . she be extremely careless even for someone like her . she continue not to care about her training . i will use this conversation a an example and shen represent if you do not win this battle and evil will take over and and everything good will be go . wendy represent whoa and talk about pressure . well . let talk about something else . yes and let wendy . let also go dance when you should rightfully be train . of course shen let her and but his character have an excuse . good that he cooperate with her and than that he not and and she not train at all and and get them both kill . oh and speaking of which . shen also tell wendy that it be his destiny for him to die for her in battle and a he have for her great grandmother ( i be assume that part ) . this make wendy action more unforgivable . a the script writer would have it and wendy homecoming and this great battle be on exactly the same day . do you know what wendy do . do you even have to guess . yes and she do end up go to the battle and for when she try to leave for homecoming and the monk and ( who shen have trap in the body of her coach and teacher because she felt weird fight an old man ) inform her that shen have go to battle alone and so she go to save him . we initially see some half decent fighting and that be actually entertaining . until finally and the great evil come out of wendy rival for homecoming body and and create the actual embodiment of himself out of the broken piece of the body of his ancient warrior . don not ask . anyway and wendy get all panicky . then shen go and defend her from this guy forgive me for forget his long chinese name and manages to get himself kill . wendy catch shen a he make his long descent from be thrust uncomfortably high into the air . she scream title of say article out . now . it be bad enough that wendy become powerful far and far too fast . no and i will not let it be excuse because it be her destiny and she have the power within her . since when and though and do she learn heal . no and bad . since when could she resurrect people . so shen be raise from the dead . then and wendy and he fight the guy . he lose way to easily . the bad part and be when they jump together and and kick him at the same time and and he be banish forever . then the monk commend wendy on her sacrifice . two thing and # 1 represent don not the script writer and director know a battle need a little more finesse to it . # 2 represent what sacrifice . the fact that she do not go to homecoming . because the girl do not break a sweat and or even bleed . i mean and come on now and this movie be tv pg and i want to see somebody get hurt . ah hem . move on . i know it sound like maybe i should have give the movie a one and base on my comment . part of critique and you must know and though and be break a thing down . you do not necessarily try to look for the bad and but if it there and you bring attention to it . this movie have a lot of bad and but something funny happen when you never really expect something to be all too great in the first place . so and i suppose it be all right . not that me not say it wasn not all right would have stop anybody from watch it .
