Review of American Ninja (1985) by Tony P — 15 May 2015
Pretty much any ninja flick from Cannon FIlms directed by Sam Firstenberg is sure to be a winner for anyone that likes simply 80's ninja action flicks that are hollow on original stories but kick-ass on the action.
Michael Dudikoff hardly has any character, and his amnesia backstory seems to be a poor excuse for that! But these kind of movies aren't meant to have much depth or thought put into viewing them, which of course makes them lazy and not very good films in general.
With this kind of movie, the story is there to drive the action, and of course its a typical deal with stoppping an arms trade with corrupt US military, but if all you're looking for is lots of ridiculous ninja action nonsense, you'll get it right here.
