The Adventures Of Johnny Tao- a Ken Scott film

I was dreading watching this movie because it’s not my style or something I would of chosen for myself to view. Johnny lives in a dirty little town and makes his living by charging tourists or who ever else is interested to see the famous electric guitar that his deceased father had a one hit wonder with. Business isn’t over flowing but it is managing to keep him a float for now.

The guitar has it’s own legend that says it’s actually partially made out of an ancient spear that Tao’s father had found in the crater of a shooting star. So when Johnny’s friend Eddie finds the other half of the spear an evil angry demon is released and it is hell bent on causing as much chaos and destruction as it possibly can with powers of the mind that will make a person do whatever he commands.

My son loves martial arts of any kind and was flabbergasted by this flick. He loved the effects, storyline and all the complex fighting scenes. I liked how Tao’s way of training was the wax on wax off kind of way that Ralph Macchio had in The Karate Kid. Mika shows up to help out Johnny with his quest to save his town from complete and utter destruction. 

Mika is a martial artist genius and feels bad enough to help him improve his moves in between kicking some major demon tush! This flick was fun to watch and holds your interest with it’s low dose humor and silly synopsis. It’s almost like a fairytale or urban legend you might of heard about when you were a kid. People of all age ranges will slide into The Adventures Of Johnny Tao with ease.
