AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks

Tacticalin An absolute waste of money

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

navi_ivan I first discovered this show when playing an online game, with the ad for this show as a banner. I thought it looked rather impressive, so I decided to find out more. What I got was a rather entertaining, imaginative kids show that can be surprisingly witty and intelligent at times (making a good change from the slew of mediocre kids show's at the time)."Yin Yang Yo" is about 2 siblings efforts to become "Woo Foo" (a parody of Kung Fu) experts, lead by their Panda master. Along the way, several odd villains will try to thwart their efforts and steal their powers through various (and really, really, REALLY) strange means.One of the many impressive things about the show is it's art style. While it may not be strikingly beautiful (in fact at times its pretty basic, even for student level), you have to remember that the entire thing was composed in Adobe Flash- and that takes quite a lot of skill to do, for a 10 minute episode.Another thing I like is how much effort has been placed into each character. While some are made to represent stereotypes (such as the self-obsessed, gross, violent Yang), others are made to have their own unique personality, which adds to the charm this show has to offer.There are a couple of niggles I have with this show. One of which is the varying quality of voice acting: some characters are voiced extremely well, others not so much (for example, Yang doesn't even sound like he's 11 years old like he's supposed to). Another thing is the show sometimes becomes so crude it may put some people off, or it may incite many "what the hell?" moments.Still, with all that said, this show is very entertaining, but it reached it's peak too early; the show,in my opinion, declined massively in quality after episode 12. If you must watch "Yin Yang Yo", try the first 12 episodes for a great laugh!

Ron Manahan After countless broadcasts of poorly-conceived shows, I had doubts on this one. But after one reluctant viewing of one episode, I began to favor the show... Yin Yang Yo! excels each one of my expectations - Plot, Presentation and Audio.Plot - The plot line follows a pair of twin rabbits, Yin and Yang, who display the main aesthetics of the typical brother/sister pair: often competing and disagreeing with each other, yet caring for one another and helping each other when the need arises. However, unlike normal rabbits, they are trained in the ancient "Woo Foo" martial arts by the sole-surviving master practitioner, a grumpy panda named Yo. The story's combination of the action/adventure and comedy genre is remarkable; humor is attainable by all-ages, fighting scenes grab the interest of the audience and show lessons of morality, plus they aren't very preachy, are quite subtle and often relate to the everyday lives of viewers.Presentation - Bob Boyle's use of Flash technology for the animation seemed kind of unconventional at first, but really pushed the limitations of Western animations and is presented beautifully with great results in return.Audio - The music (the theme song to be more specific) was the only weak-point (a minor one at that) that I could detect for the show. Yin Yang Yo!'s theme song is yet another commercially-inspired hip-hop song that shows how the very idea of this kind of music is really losing its appeal. Kyle Massey's performance was the disappointment in this one. On the other hand, Michael Tavera's (known for his compositional work for music from "The Land Before Time"; not the original one, but the following sequels) overall score composition perfectly fits with the mood that the scenes exhibit.Overall, I enjoy the show for two reasons. The first reason - Yin Yang Yo!'s inspiration is drawn from a plethora of ideas such as the mystic and close-quarters-combat-based fighting popularized from Street Fighter and its writing style is similar to Metal Gear Solid - it is the combination of its disarming humor (not taking itself too seriously) and an epic and intriguing storyline that viewers draw interest on. The second reason is the fact that I can completely relate to this show. I have a sister, and almost every episode of this show makes me realize how fortunate I am to have a sibling and how much I want to have a closer relationship with her...Yin Yang Yo! gets a 10/10 from me. Impressive, Disney Channel... I mean, Jetix!

ultramatt2000-1 When I saw the previews on Jetix, I thought it was created by Butch "Fairly OddParents" Hartman, but it was created by Bob Boyle, who worked with Hartman on that Nicktoon. I was surprised that it was not only animated by Flash, but it had better jokes and dialogue, not to mention really good story-telling. When I first saw Yin and Yang, they looked like a butt- kicking version of Buster and Babs Bunny from TINY TOON ADVENTURES. When I first saw the grumpy panda Master Yo, I was thinking cool. But cool turned to nice when he spoke. He sounded like Bubs from Homestar Runner dot com. The jokes and gags are beyond hilarious. This show broke the scale. In the episode, "Finding Hershel" the screen split into three parts. You first see the middle part. Then comes the upper part. Yang looks up and he says, "Wow!". Then comes the lower part, and he looks down and says, "Hey, neat!" Woo-Foo is a sort of like a combination between magic and marital arts. The villains are also funny. Apart from the fruity Carl the Evil Cockroach Wizard, who makes characters like Brother Herman (an ant with a Scottish accent, who is allergic to pandas) look normal. The Night Master is modeled after Jigsaw from the SAW films, Fastidious is modeled after a James Bond villain from YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE. Ultimoose is modeled after Steven Segall mixed with a shade of Mr. Crocker's spazziness, Yuck is modeled after Oscar the Grouch, and the Chung-Pow Kitties are modeled after Hello Kitty and the Powerpuff Girls. Now let me tell you why I give this a 9.5 out of 10. It is because of the following: Ultimoose and Saranoya. One is a chauvinist moose, who not only thinks of himself but also thinks of the male gender. The other one (boy do I hate her) is the cat/devil character who uses her magic to use Yin to be on her side and wipe out the male gender. Plus, she has a gnome sidekick who is a male and is on her side, but in the TV-movie WOO-FOOGEDDEN, he quits working for her. Going back, Saranoya is a sexist! Did you see the way she behaved in front of men and boys, such as Yang? Nasty with a capital N! So YING YANG YO or YYY is such a wacky show that fun for the entire family. Rated TV- Y7 for fantasy and comedic violence, mischief, crude humor and all manner of wacky going- ons.

Morgan C. Goat Just when I thought Toon Disney was going down the drain with Dragon Booster marathons, new (and terrible) seasons of Power Rangers, and, as I like to call it, "Rerun Central"--where they play a selection of already-seen episodes from original Disney Channel cartoons (and some that once were there since, like, the 90's but then canceled and revived) and seen-way-too-much movies, a new show came along: Yin Yang Yo! It came off to a rather bad start--it premiered with a marathon that repeated the first two-to-four episodes for what was literally the whole day (twenty-four hours!)--but once it found its rightful spot on Mondays at 7:30 Eastern time (and occasionally repeating from time to time), all peace had returned to the hours-long cartoon block that was Jetix.But after watching the trailers, some might ask, "What is this show about? Bunnies doing Kung-Fu and magic?" Really, it pretty much is what it's about, once you strip it down to the basics. But believe me, it's actually much more than that. Much, MUCH more. The story starts with two eleven-year-old rabbits, respectively named Yin and Yang for their opposite sexes and personalities, who are not only twins, but are two of the last "Woo-Foo" warriors--the third being an old and grouchy panda named Yo. Carrying on: the twins are still learning, though their skills gradually grow faster by the day, and in the meantime, they (though mostly Yang, the aggressive, sword-wielding brother) learn moral lessons to carry on in life. Yo, their mentor, despite appearances, was actually a very adroit and powerful Woo-Foo warrior in his days. But Yo's days were long gone since Yo's last climatic battle years ago, and now the trio's style of martial arts are taunted and laughed at. And as if all this wasn't enough of an impact on Yin and Yang, they also have to fight various--and hilariously eccentric--bad guys, from the threatening alter-ego Yuck to their arch-nemesis, Carl the evil cockroach. But no matter what the situation, their adventures (and misadventures?) are guaranteed to make you laugh out loud or raise an eyebrow and say, "Huh?"! As for flaws, there are barely any, except for maybe Carl's and the Night Master's (?) jokes--most of them just aren't that funny. In addition, a number of the remaining in general might come off as crude or offensive (can you say, "Hot-looking Feminist", anyone?). And some of the audience might have mixed feelings about Kyle Massey singing the theme song.But despite all (minor?) flaws, Yin Yang Yo! is actually a show WORTH watching.My Rating: 9.5/10 (rounded to the nearest whole number)
