Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?

Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Fulke Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Red-Barracuda Ninja Death is the first in a series of three films that seem to have been made at the same time. It begins as it means to go on with a truly crazed fight between three good guys defending a baby and a princess against a gang of ninja assassins and their evil overlord. It's a demented affair with an eye gouging, a suicide and men being kicked several metres along the ground. It gives a pretty good indication of the film we are about to see, as Ninja Death is quite clearly a very committedly ridiculous film, with characters such as a man in a gold all-in-one suit armed with a couple of hammers and another sporting a demon mask who pirouettes through the air. It's chock full of entertaining fights that are sometimes camped up to the max. Events seem to revolve around a bouncer at a brothel who is at one point attacked by a man disguised as a female prostitute.Essentially, this is a markedly better than average slice of chopsocky action. Its entertainment level is much better because it is more fearlessly ridiculous than most others and doesn't get bogged down with tedium like most in the genre do at some stage. Fast, frenetic and daft as a brush – that's this film.

Bezenby This review is for Ninja Death parts 1,2 and 3, as I think this is the only way you can get to see Ninja Death anyway (or Ninja Tiger, as its also called). Hopefully this review will give you an idea of the insanity that's on display.As you've no doubt read elsewhere, Ninja Death literally starts off with a ninja being killed, as a battle breaks out between a load of ninjas led by the grandmaster, and three brothers trying to protect a baby and a princess. After much fighting, the grandmaster steps in an tears one of the brother's eyes out. He beats another one into submission (and kicks him about 60 feet across the ground), whereupon the princess kills herself and the other brother escapes with the baby (or rather, a dummy is thrown off a cliff). Cue the creditless opening sequence, which can cause brain damage to those not used to these crazy films. This is only the first five minutes of Part One! Years later, Tiger runs a brothel, under the watchful eye of his pretend beggar master. We see Tiger touting for business and getting into a conversation with some hookers that wouldn't be out of place in a porno. There's also loads of nudity here for all you nudity fans out there. The whole point of this seems to be to introduce a Japanese brother and sister, who are working for the grandmaster and trying to strip Tiger of his clothes to see if he has a certain tattoo. This involves tricking Tiger into a room where the brother tries to strip him. Tiger gets the wrong end of the stick here: "Not the backdoor!" and his master soon gets wind of what's happening. Cue much training footage.Meanwhile, the grandmaster (who makes a dramatic entrance that must be seen to be believed) preps his ninjas and we get to see the devil mask ninja, who usually runs about at high speed, going especially mental every time the grandmaster plays a flute.The master sends Tiger to see a blind fortune teller and it's around this time the dubbing switches from American to English, just in time for Tiger to say 'plum flower' over and over again. The Japanese sister becomes his lover and everyone in the brothel is killed by ninjas. Tiger's master (who is a ninja) pays the grandmaster a visit, finds out the devil mask guy is his brother, and gets his arse kicked. End of part one.Part Two spends the first forty minutes explaining what happened in the first film and training up Tiger for his big battle. Turns out he's a Japanese prince, his master was his uncle, and devil mask is his dad. Also, his mum isn't dead after all. The dubbing is back to American again and truly becomes surreal, as if the dubbing crew might have watched the film once before dubbing. Part 2 picks up again as various battles break out, most notably Devil Mask guy going berserk and pulling a guy's head off with his bare hands before rampaging through the countryside, pulling people's guts out. Also, most of this part of Ninja Death takes place beside waterfalls for some reason, and the Princess sounds like Lady Diana.Part Three is where everyone gears up for the big battle. On one side you have the blind fortune teller and his crew, Tiger and the Japanese brother and sister, and on the other side you've got the grandmaster, devil mask, and infinite ninjas. There's a battle every minute and wait till you see a) The grandmaster's hammers, which detach themselves and fly at his opponents, b) Tiger's entrance to the big battle which involves him flying up into the air and things exploding c) Devil Mask's entrance to the last battle which involves him flying 400 yards horizontally through a forest and d) Loads of wire work, people flying about and a good pay off.Ninja Death really is up there as one of the most demented films I've watched. The dubbing is insane and gets worse as the film progresses. The fights are bizarre and even gory in parts (one guy gets one of the grandmaster's hammers straight to the face and its bloody as hell). One guy punches himself in the head to death and Tiger has a little adventure with some peasants that's completely pointless and mental at the same time. I'd recommend this one to fans of obscure, weird and bad films. Be warned though – watch it only in instalments. It took me about a week to get through them all and I was glad I did.

cs_weaver This film is a masterpiece. It is possibly the most ridiculous film ever made yet appears to take itself seriously throughout. Its the only kung fu film I've ever seen with lots of naked women and sexual references which makes it even more funny. The trick-or-treat style costumes, crazy editing and voice overs all make it a non-stop laugh riot if you like bad films.I don't recommend this film for dull minded people who need everything to make sense or be easy to understand. This film is for people who know how much fun the absurdity of Kung Fu can be.This is now my second favorite kung fu movie, my first is still "Wheels on Meals" with Jackie Chan, its not quite as absurd as this one though.Both of those films (and many others including Ninja Death 2) are available for free, legally, online with Joost. Download their player and go to the "Tokyo Pulp" channel and you can view them for free.

rottingcarrot I've seen parts II and III of the ninja death series and as far as I can tell I haven't missed anything essential from the plot. The plot has something to do with a guy named tiger played by the always exciting Alexander lou who is fighting ninjas. I'm not sure why he's fighting them but there are three guys from a different time period who were taught ninja arts in japan since they were kids and then they fight. One gets his eyes gouged out. Another teaches tiger kung fu and then he punches himself in the head and he dies. This was a very dramatic scene which had me in tears.But I was soon cheered up by some of the best ninja fight scenes i've ever witnessed! The fight choreography in this film is absolutely top notch, fast and accurate fighting! THe head evil ninja with the twin hammers wearing the gold suit should win every award at the academy awards. His kung fu is fabulous and His acting (along with the poorest quality English dubbing i've ever heard) is hilarious! In fact everyones acting in this is hilarious. Alexander lou shows just how bad an actor he can be in nonsensical love scenes that make them very funny to watch! If you like crazy Chinese kung fu movies you'll love this, if not, the fight scenes are still worth the admission.
