Tom Lee discovers he's part of a long lineage of magical protectors known as the Guardians. With guidance from a mythical tiger and other animal warriors, he trains to take on an evil force that threatens humanity.

Critics Consensus

Though offering polished animation and appealing voice work, The Tiger's Apprentice can't prevent its patchwork of familiar tropes and sluggish plotting from dulling its vibrant mythology.

I admit we've seen this story a million times in a million forms, but I thought it was nicely done and funny when it meant to be.

2/4

A movie that has a couple of amusing moments and nice visual flourishes but not nearly enough to combat the resounding mediocrity of the storytelling.

3/4

The animation is less surefooted at the start in a prologue set in Hong Kong, but it quickly improves when the action shifts to San Francisco, gloriously re-created. The vocal cast is mighty impressive and includes the ever-busy Michelle Yeoh.

2.5/5

The animation is sincerely stunning — the fight choreography, intricate transitions, and animation style are visually exciting. However, the rest of the production is a letdown.

The action can be well done but the story and characters aren't compelling

2.5/5

The Tiger's Apprentice is so obviously assembled from ideas from other, better films that even the occasional visual flourish isn't enough to elevate the finished product into anything you'll ever be particularly happy you saw.
