The always excellent Alexander Lou once again dons full ninja regalia and fights for justice in this rather enjoyable ninja outing, brought to us by the same director who gave us the classic 'The Super Ninja' aka 'Killers Invincible'
The plot here is a nice and straight forward 'hero must rescue girlfriend in peril from someone who once saved his life' affair. The 'someone' in question is played by big George Nicholas who ninja fans will instantly recognise as one of the ninja good guys in the hugely enjoyable 'Sakura Killers'
Of course as you might expect our hero must firstly battle his way through legions of his nemesis' ninja minions in some superbly choreographed (but mostly hideously sped up!) fight scenes which fill out the majority of the movies running time.
Yes it's somewhat formulaic stuff but is still nonetheless a fun one and a half hour ride if you like this sort of thing.
One point to watch out for though......the dubbing is particularly horrendous in this although to be fair...such an aspect in my opinion actually serves to raise the enjoyment bar as it provides some amusing comic relief in a film which actually seems to take itself deadly seriously(!!!)
