Absolutely Fantastic

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

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.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Another so-bad-it's-classic from Taiwan, from the same team who bought us MAFIA VS. NINJA. This one is along the same lines, with tons of low budget but highly entertaining martial arts bouts, although it's not quite as crazy-classic as that other film. It's still bloody weird though! This time around, Alexander Lou is a US cop who ends up being framed by his own department, and who has to escape from jail in a scene that's been clearly creatively inspired by FIRST BLOOD! What follows is one of the longest, most gratuitous and most repulsive sex scenes in movie history, and then the real story starts: yep, it turns out to be a rip-off of SUPER NINJAS, the Shaw Brothers film, complete with a gang of Five Element Ninjas out to wreak havoc! Elsewhere, other weird stuff going on includes a black policeman-cum-boxer who's pretty good at whupping backside, and some ninja training sequences that reminded me of KICKBOXER.Like 99% of these films, the longest and most elaborate fight scenes are saved for the climax, and it's in the last half hour that the fun really starts here. Things culminate in a great beach battle at the climax, one of the best I've seen, but before then there's a ton of ninja action in the woods and elsewhere. Being a Taiwanese flick, there's plenty of weirdness, with a highlight being a water ninja jet-skiing on a length of bamboo! Lou uses a block of wood and a spring (!) to jump on top of buildings, and fighters are once again spitting water when they get struck. What's best of all, though, is that the action is decent throughout, engaging and exciting in equal measure. Only fans of cheesy kung fu flicks need apply, but this is one of the funniest...

Imagine a movie that took the worst clichés of 70's gangster movies, 70's kung fu movies, 70's porn, 70's cop movies, and Power Rangers, and rolled all into one absurd mess that looked as though it had been scripted by a kindergartener. This movie was easily ten times worse than that. That being said, this is every reason to see it. From the opening scene on, I don't think I stopped laughing once. Nothing made any sense, there was not a transition to be found in the movie, and the number of rape scenes per girl (5 rape scenes, only two females in the entire movie) was quite staggering. I pulled "The Super Ninja" off the rental shelf expecting to watch a hilariously bad movie, but nothing prepared me for the jaw-droppingly awful spectacle that was the Super Ninja. It was amazing.

Brace yourself, for this is undoubtedly one of the very best and most entertaining ninja-fests ever made! This movie has it all - dubbing that seems to be perpetually about 2 seconds out of sync with the characters flapping mouths, one of, if not THE most un-erotic lovemaking scene ever committed to celluloid, a ninja surfing on a piece of bamboo(!!!) a soundtrack that liberally borrows i.e steals snippets from other movie scores such as Psycho and Star Wars and some really nifty martial arts action to boot! Simply put, if you're at all into ninja movies or for that matter B-Movies in general, then you really NEED to see this - it's a veritable classic!

But probably not intentionally so.The fighting is outrageous. Well choreographed usually, but sped up ridiculously, with the occasional completely inexplicable effect shot thrown in the middle. It looked like a high school student film. But in a good way.Oh, and the racial politics in this film will stun you. The white guy villain is hilariously over-the-top, and his dialogue (not to mention his bizarre pawing of the lead's girlfriend) will leave you scratching your head and laughing, possibly at the same time.Still, the best part of this kung fu masterpiece was the dubbing. It all sounded like it was dubbed by one or two guys. The dubbing of the black sidekick was priceless! It completely failed to sound like the man playing the part.Worth a watch for all the laughs. Not a great film, not even a good one, but a funny one!
