Wendy Wu: Homecoming Warrior (Kickin' Edition)
To her friends, Wendy Wu (Brenda Song) is an average teenager with an almost perfect life and a dream of becoming homecoming queen.  Chinese legend, on the other hand, declares that Wendy is first and foremost the reincarnation of a powerful woman warrior from the Wei Dynasty who is destined to fight the newly-awakened, evil Yan Lo.  When Shen (Shin Koyamada), a most untraditional Buddhist monk, arrives in Fair Springs, California to begin training Wendy in the art of Kung Fu, Wendy is skeptical and uncooperative until a series of strange events involving her family, friends, and teachers force her to consider her priorities from a whole new perspective.  Some serious Kung Fu training whips Wendy's body into shape, but it is her state and strength of mind that will ultimately determine her path and the destiny of the larger world.  Disney star Brenda Song (The Suite Life of Zack and Cody)  shows true martial arts prowess in this action-packed film as does Shin Koyamada (Constellation).  Ashley Tisdale (High School Musical)  also plays a supporting role.  Bonus features include an exclusive alternate ending, a look at the intensive martial arts training that predated the film, a cast connections segment that is basically a television biography of Brenda Song, and an episode ofThe Suite Life of Zach and Codyin which London (Brenda Song) is disastrously enrolled in parochial school and Zach and Cody learn a lesson about spying.
