Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Ezmae Chang This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
HaemovoreRex Released in Europe under the alternative title of Ninja Project Daredevils, this cut and splice ninja outing has the rather unfortunate distinction of featuring a frankly interminable tale into which the newer ninja themed segments have been added and one which in addition seems to drag on for a merciless eternity!The meandering story concerns a young lad who is seized by the army after he attempts to instigate a rebellion. It transpires (slowly and excruciatingly) that the boy gradually comes to the realisation that his former enemies are anything but as they show him great compassion and teach him new values etc etc….yawn.Whilst the above plot is pretty much unbearable to endure (bar one brief but unforgettable scene where our young protagonist is seen manually inflating a condom!!!), the ninja segments are, I'm pleased to say, as usual, hilarious stuff (albeit sadly too few and far between) The final battle especially proves to be a laugh riot beyond belief and includes some missile firing nunchaku and flame throwing sai!!!! Wow!!!! Not only that but check out some of the priceless dialogue on offer including in a scene near the start when Michael, the evil leader of the Gold ninja (whose members dress in black! – eh?!) says to George (leader of the purple ninja 'gang' whose members dress in white! – eh?!) that he is sorry to hear of the purple ninja groups economic problems……eh?!?!?!? Who the hell writes these scripts?!
tlzimbelman I found a VHS copy of this movie at a thrift store for $2, and it looked absolutely ridiculous.I was right-it is absolutely ridiculous. It's everything you would expect from a 1985 low budget ninja film (cheesy effects, bad voice overs, lack of plot, cheesy dialog, and a soundtrack full of Synth and wailing guitar solo's).However, I was disappointed with the movie box. The cover features pictures of a ninja riding a dirt bike. No such thing was in the movie. Also, the narrative on the back of the box referenced "The Black Ninja Gang," infiltration "of the government's headquarters" to hold the members hostage, "The White Ninja," and an "evil that has plagued the city." Unfortunately, not one of these elements are in the movie.However, I have recently watched this movie a second time, as it is a sure-fire way to provide a few cheesy-movie chuckles.
apostatebuddha This movie is about white ninjas in- maybe- China? The opening scene has a ninja in baggy purple pajamas fighting a ninja in baggy golden pajamas. These ninjas are deciding the role of ninja-kind in the anonymous politics of wherever they are. The golden ninja and purple ninja fight for a bit, and pooof smoke they're gone.So apparently something like "Interninja Club" infighting. Neat.But now there's quite randomly also a subplot w/ a kid, this woman, and some conflicted Asian army officer, who want to start a family together. It's all very cheesy- the army officer teaches the value of chores; the woman woman cries and promises to wait for him. The ninjas killed the kid's parents or something.And then back to random ninja fighting.This is the single weirdest movie I've seen in a long time. It just makes no sense. But it's worth watching for...I don't know.
