For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
The movie really just wants to entertain people.
I remember I loved this movie as 7 year old karate kid wannabe back in 92. While not as timeless as other movies in this genre such as Home Alone, it's a good, safe (for content) movie for kids to enjoy. It's no Oscar winner, but it wasn't trying to be (obviously). Yes, the dialog is stupid, the plot is amateurish, and if you're over the age of 11, you'll be unamused by most of the humor. Everyone knows that three kids outnumbered 10 to 1 by professional criminals with extensive martial arts training AND who have guns wouldn't stand a chance, but this is a kids' fantasy movie. Every little boy dreams of fighting bad guys and kicking their butts; 3 Ninjas just plays it out on screen. I find it funny that so many find THAT aspect of the movie to be its "downfall." If you're planning on having a sleepover party for you 6-10 year old son, this is a good movie for him and his friends.
It's too bad I can't rate this at a .5 because I would. Movies like this and surf ninjas are playing a huge role in continuing to make our children dumber. The acting is just gruesomely terrible, the story line is just as bad and if I had a chance to play in a movie like this, I would think about how much I would be regretting it for the rest of my life. Even back when this movie first came out and I was in the second grade, I knew this movie was stupid then. This movie is so sad, if you love your children and have a hope of them turning out to be something some day, don't let them see this, it will only damage their minds rather than inspire them.
Oh my gosh, as a kid I watched this movie EVERY day with my best friend!!!! We loved Colt and Rocky so much!! It was by far our favorite movie. I was looking for it today because I used to own it, but I can't find it. I will probably buy it along with the two sequels, 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up and 3 Ninjas Kick Back. I have not seen the sequels but I imagine that they are just as good as the first one. It's a great movie for kids, however adults might find it childish. I am 13 now and I still want to watch it. It is a humorous movie with lots of ninja action. "Tum Tum" was funny. These movies are similar to The Ninja Turtles movies except with kids instead of turtles. And I would much rather watch this series than the Ninja Turtles series.
well a few days ago me and my sister came over a old time favorite movie and we were SO excited!! i love this movie it has comedy and action!! it is an old movie but when you watch the movie it looks like a very high tech movie!! and all the fighting parts look SO real i think the were actually fighting!! and the boys were just so cute!! my fav. is colt!! he is the cutest and funniest!!! if you have not seen this movie.... you HAVE to rent it!!!!
