As cheesy as this film is, it does at least accomplish the basic stuff an action movie should. Characters have clear motives, a sympathetic protagonist, information is revealed over time and there is that satisfying sense of justice when the bad guys are killed in the end.
Hollywood today cannot seem to even make films of this quality, and that's bad.
Jesus, there are ninjas chasing after them: is she completely incapable of keeping quiet or does she WANT them to get caught?? God save us from pampered airheads.
even though its cheesy i love it because as a kid watching this it seems real and stuff of how they fought and got hurt but we all know its a cool movie who cares!!! 80's 90's movies ROcked man!
lmao im in the same boat as you man i have 3 broken down vcrs at home :( i cant even bring myself to buying a shitty 10 dollar piece of obslete technology
i remember watching this as a kid and thinking this was the best movie ever made.lol! funny what we find as "great" when we re kids. brings back memories.
@guitarsamurai1 hey dont feel bad these movies were great.just imagine 10 or 15 years from now and how this gen is gonna feel about how they worshiped movies like twilight.lol
@JACKOTACO haha.. true true, director was probably pulling his hair out but thinking ya know what nobody will notice cause theyll be too busy looking at the ninjas hehe.. and around the 3:30 mark hes just lying there all over again
Ninja's are so freaking cool, their stealthiness are awesome, this is what to expect from a 80's movie, but it brings back memories..thanks for posting
Anybody speak Japanese here? What does the Black Star Ninja say? It sounds like "Sue-Muh-Dee" and he says it when jumping off the truck, a little before "He possess great skills."
GGGgirl, I'm an 80's action movie specialist and American ninja was made during a time when women werent allowed to shoot guns or drive in action movies.
well you think when you were 16 everyone knew you were 16 so shut your hole this is the best movie everthe old man knew how old he was so you take it from there moron
ya she's so annoying, she's treating him like he's the enemy...hello doesn't she realize he's from her side? oh well, maybe she's one of those daddy's girls who havent been exposed enough to men, or maybe alll daughters or military personnel are like this, who knows
thanks to that bitch all them poor soldiers died!
