In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

3 NINJAS: HIGH NOON AT MEGA MOUNTAIN is an ultra-cheesy addition to the 3 NINJAS series of kid's martial arts flicks. These come across as low-rent KARATE KID clones, with a trio of dim-looking kids battling evil adults and generally kicking their backsides. The ridiculous plot has a heavily made-up Loni Anderson playing a villain called Medusa (don't ask), who terrorises a popular star (a typically wooden and amusing Hulk Hogan). The kids step in and lots of low rent action ensues. Generally this is a below par production, filled with exceptionally cheesy action sequences, loud hits, and stunt men getting thrown around the sets. Victor Wong (TREMORS) shows up in his last role, but this is very basic - and very dated - stuff.

I'm a fan of the 3 Ninjas, but the sequels that followed weren't required. Four movies were just too many. The first movie was a classic! It remains a childhood favourite, and I would watch it all the time. The same cannot be said with the other movies, and that includes High Noon at Mega Mountain. I remember this movie appearing on television on a Sunday, and it was a fine movie to watch ahead of school. It was still a fun movie despite the weak plot. You could tell the 3 Ninjas series is finally going to be over, and this movie actually did a good job of that. 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain wasn't meant to be taken too seriously. It looked like a decent movie to end the series. That's why I give it a slightly higher rating than most people would for this movie.

Another wonderful addition into the 3 Ninjas series. 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain. Some audiences did like this addition, but it was amazing film like the other 3 Ninjas movies. 3 Ninjas are awesome totally. Great selection on bring the legend Hulk Hogan into the picture he was cool.3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain was also a classic and really good kids family film. A kick-butt action-comedy-family film. The boys, Mathew Botuchis, Michael J. O'Laskey II, and J.P. Roeske II were so awesome in this addition. 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain was so funny and full of true Martial Arts. Victor Wong who starred as Grandpa he did great and connected very well with the boys in this addition. Sean McNamara who directed film. Great work! Sean McNamara and Jeff Phillips thanks for writing such a amazing kick-butt story. 3 Ninjas: High Noon at Mega Mountain rocks!We all remember watching the 3 Ninjas films as a kid and watching them via Television whenever they showed. 3 Ninjas was always a joy to watch because they kick-butt. There's nothing negative about the films itself. I recommend them for everyone and you should check them out if you haven't today. If you love them you'll love this one too. 3 Ninjas will forever rock your world. These boys are cool.

Rocky and Colt are probably getting a bit too old to be spending their summers practising their ninja skills and Grandpa Mori knows he will soon loose them to the appeal of girls and probably inexpensive soft drugs. Young Tum Tum skill shows heart though, but is that enough? Anyway, for Tom Tom's birthday, they all go to theme park Mega Mountain to see television star Dave Dragon in a live appearance. However when terrorists seize control of the park and demand $10 million or they will start causing accidents among the customers. With the gates locked down and no help on the way, the boys find themselves calling on their ninja skills after all.OK, I wasn't expecting this to be Die Hard but I was genuinely surprised to find out what passes as kids' entertainment in the eyes of some makers. I had to check IMDb during it to find out if it was a TVM or not and again was shocked to learn that this made it into cinemas, yes, cinemas. It actually got released and was shown to a paying public as opposed to just let out on television. Personally I do not have an issue with the idea behind the film because kids will always love to see their peers beating adults. I'm sure many parents will have concerns about letting their children watch something with lots of fighting and kicking in case they imitate it, but I'll leave those concerns to them (even if I do agree with them). So in theory this should be a silly and fun martial arts film for children.However this is so cheap - lacking originality, effort and fun that I did wonder if the audience didn't deserve something better than this. The mixed group watching this on a lazy afternoon hardly let out a chuckle or any sign of enjoyment. The martial arts action did show that the movement is well done but that is about it. I expected the plot to be daft but it is daft to the point of being painful and it just felt churned out like a bad panto – the basics with little for kids and nothing at all for adults.The cast are roundly poor although this was almost always going to be a given. The kids can't act to save their lives even if they move well. Botuchis is unconvincing, Roeske is unbearably saccharine while O'Laskey looks absurd with one of the worse haircuts I have ever seen. Hogan looks so cheap that his wrestling days look like Shakespeare in the Park as a result – he is terrible and really should have more dignity about him than this. Anderson is poor and given little support by Jim Varney. Wong's last film on earth? Shame. McNamara's direction is TVM standard at best and the cheap incidental music just makes it all feel worse still.Overall, a popular one for inclusion in the bottom 100 on this site and it is indeed rubbish but it didn't have to be. The idea could have been fun if done properly but it is cheaply delivered in every regard and lacks any sense of fun, wit or imagination, leaving it feeling like it has been churned out as part of a money making process without a care for the audience (which, on this evidence, it exactly what happened).
