A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

This must be one of the worst movies i've seen, and I've seen quit a lot of movies and also quit a lot of really bad movies. Actually, you can call me a fan of bad movies, so you shouldn't be surprised to read that this is like some kind of masterpiece to me! I'm not going to talk about the story, because it's a real mess and doesn't make any sense at all. The actors are all terrible, but I certainly need to mention Stuart Smith as Sydney who is one of the worst in the job. Watching him is painfully funny. There are 3 scenes with him (only with him, you see him hardly interact with other actors, the reason for that is explained in "Trivia") which are trill "great": * Him running in the streets on "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" by Genesis, * the scene with the little bird and his sword (you have to see this to believe it, it's hilarious) * and his phone-conversation towards the end of the movie.The dubbing and the sound-effects are lousy, the camera-work is shitty, well I can go on and on, but fans of "worst of the worst"-movies have by now understood that this is a must-have for their collection.I should give it 0/10 for obvious reasons, but also a 10/10 for entertainment value, so my final figure is a 5/10. A must see!!

Holy crap, this is the greatest thing ever. Ninjas, titties and bad overdubbing. This movie is so amazing. I'm watching it right now. Ninja action scenes are A++. The ninjas are everywhere and they're awesome and ruthless and they're either spying on someone or killing them or being killed by a more skilled ninja. Every ninja in this movie is 23 times better then Jackie Chan in every way.Everyone needs to see this movie. EVERYONE. I got it cheap from some bargain bin. I can't believe someone would sell something this fantastic for two dollars. Man, even the white guys have bad overdubbing. There are regular ninjas, there's a red ninja and a white ninja and a big boss ninja at the head of an evil organization. Evil organizations are the greatest. Especially when they're run by ninjas that laugh manically way too often. This movie wins. Wins everything.

This movie is SO impressive, I have watched it two times today. With no plot line or appropriate ending, I have to say I have found the best lousy ninja movie ever made. To match the caliber of the movie, I will summarize it really badly. It's for some reason about ninjas and then there is an American agent for some reason that ends up being a red ninja for whatever reason, and apparently it's important to be a red ninja. Then he fights and they use stop frame to make the ninjas vanish really poorly. Then there are ninjas blowing up and then the red ninja does his kuji-in hand movements and explodes or something then the movie is over.I bought it for 5 cents at a thrift store. I would have payed two, maybe even three times that much for a movie this good.

This is the greatest movie ever made. See it. If you can't find it, go to Canada and buy it for 99 cents (Canadian). It will change your life forever. It's good because there is no plot, but there are ninjas jumping around trees and stuff. Jesus likes this movie, why don't you?
