A young boy discovers some magical stick.. and goes into the asian craziness of the forbidden kingdom.. it looks as if he went back in time or to an alternate universe sortof deal.. it reminds of teenage mutant ninja turtles III alot.. but it also reminds me of karate kid, and all of the crazy 90s movies that were based on ninja flippin' awesomeness and the normal people being dragged in to it..
It's extremely like a 90's movie.. i mean extremely.. yet the fact that it's being made now put's a cool twist into it, cuz now all the stuff they couldn't do back then, we can do easily now..
it looks really neat.. not cheesey, but full of action.. but still has the funny homey feel that movies lately have been lacking.

Lost in solipsism
he then slowly pulls a lever
which sets off a mechanism
which does nothing whatsoever
but the nothing that it does
negates the everything we know
because it's screaming "Just because!"
because it's neither friend or foe
and so we label it a menace
or a grandiose work of art.
From its finale to its genesis
we slowly pull it all apart.
That's the beauty of it--
It doesn't do anything.
