Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Sienna-Rose Mclaughlin The movie really just wants to entertain people.

lemon_magic If I hadn't known about Godfrey Ho's penchant for cobbling together parts of disparate movies to make new product, the experience of watching "Ninja Champion" would have made me question my sanity. Even with that useful bit of foreknowledge, my critical consciousness could barely withstand the drubbing this move inflicted on it. Movie number one is an amazingly turgid and incoherent story about a young woman who is raped while on a camping trip and decides to avenge herself by infiltrating the diamond smuggling gang the three rapists work for and killing them one by one. (BTW, one of her attackers is "the boxing champion of all Asia", yet he is brought to his knees when he is whipped with what appears to be...a shoelace.Admittedly, he had just been poisoned.) Movie number two appears to be about 7 scenes (and a total of maybe 15 minutes) which feature a series of confrontations between a good ninja in white and some bad ninjas in red. These scenes are violently jammed at random into movie number 1, with only a few unconvincing and contrived lines of dialog to link them in any way to the far longer and more involved events of movie number one. The good news about these scenes is that three of the red ninjas appear to have some pretty good acrobatic and wu-shu skills, so they each put on a nice little exhibition before the white ninja suddenly shows up and attacks them. (We get no explanation about how the white ninja found them.) The bad news is that both the white ninja and the head "red" ninja wear huge headbands that actually say "ninja" on them...you know, the kind of headbands that a 12 year old might buy from a Times Square shop because he thought they were cool. Movie number one might have actually been watchable if seen in its original language with subtitles. But the translation and voice work here are so wrong-headed and silly that the dialog keeps yanking you out of the picture. I think that variations of the phrase "kill the damn bastards (who) raped me/you" were used almost 100 times. It's as if high school junior plotted the thing and a middle school student who saw "Death Wish" once wrote the dialog. Further reinforcing this feeling is the fact that none of the characters in the screenplay are given last names; so a typical line of dialog goes like this: "I'm glad you killed those bastards. My name is Larry." (Yes, a Chinese importer and underworld figure named "Larry".) You can imagine 9 year boys on a school playground saying stuff like this with no difficulty.Anyway, the first movie comes to a (tragic) end, and then the 2nd movie tacks on another scene where the head red ninja explains (and explains and explains) to the white ninja how he (the red ninja) was actually responsible for all of it. Then he laughs maniacally. No, really, he does. Then they both teleport (!) to a playground, and they have on their headbands (that say "ninja" on them), and the red ninja jumps up on a jungle gym and the white ninja skewers him. The end. I find it almost impossible to believe that the people who put this movie together thought that anyone above the age of 10 would be able to watch this thing without getting a splitting headache. (And why would a 10 year old be interested in the plot of the "main" movie?) And yet, they did; not once, but several times. I know this because my "50 Martial Arts Classics" collection has not only this movie by Ho, but also "Ninja the Protector" (which is slightly better) and "Ninja Empire" (which is even goofier.) It's amazing (and distressing) to think that two decades ago you could apparently put out anything with "Ninja" in the title at make at least a little money off it...because these movies are Ur-Cheese.The only reason "Ninja Champion" gets more than one star is that some of the countryside and urban scenery are quite nice, and there are those nice little circus demonstrations by the three red ninja before they get turned into sushi.

Mike Reynolds Whenever I sit down and watch Ninja Champion, I wonder to myself. "Did team of people that actually collaborated to make this movie actually think it was good?" There's just a mistake after another that even the least skilled film watcher could point out. The third generation film and audio, the quotes! When the boxer is dying on her bed, he claims the wine they drank was poisoned, she corrects him:"No not the wine...my nipples, you jerk!"She actually calls him a jerk! The guy raped her and the only thing she can come up with is "jerk"!? Touché! Then she proceeds to whip him to death with a SHOE LACE!?BRILLIANCE!myfriend_mikeps:If anyone knows the name of the track that plays when the bald guy is leading the tampon cigarette guy and the short guy to their boat base, I will give them 10 bucks.

HaemovoreRex This is one of the very best of the many cut and splice ninja outings as cobbled together by those legendary cinematic rascals Joseph Lai and Godfrey Ho.What can I say? This is absolutely mental!!!!!!!!! It truly has to be one of the most unfathomable, illogical and downright demented films I have ever had the pleasure (and confusion) to sit through! The plot in this is without doubt the most bizarrely complex and muddled I have ever witnessed in any film! The ending especially, when Maurice the evil ninja explains 'the beauty' of his plan (complete with a maniacal laugh!) is completely and utterly baffling and I frankly defy anyone to follow it without rewinding the scene a good few times in order to take it in! Needless to say, Donald, our ninja hero played by always welcome genre regular Bruce Baron, is mightily peeved upon learning the villain's evil scheme (and no doubt also by his bewildering recounting of it!) and challenges him to a climatic battle which just has to be seen to be believed! This film is about as crazy as they come and is all the more fun for it although be warned, it may well induce severe brain damage!!!

kimble_bobby Ninja Champion is a collage of martial arts movies glued together by a ridiculous plot. But that's what Godfrey Ho is known for. In the 80's Mr. Ho discovered you could take a bunch of cheap crappy movies and edit their fight scenes together to make a new movie!The plot for Ninja Champion is as follows; three men rape a woman. The men turn out to be part of a diamond smuggling ring. The woman's ex-husband is an Interpol agent who wants to stop the diamond smugglers and help his ex-wife kill the three men that raped her.Throughout this movie there are random scenes of nameless guys beating each other up for no reason. Nothing is ever explained. In one fight scene, one of the men changes from a guy with no shirt into a ninja dressed in a red suit. This is never explained, but then again the reason these people were fighting in the first place was never explained either.If this movie were intentionally made as a comedy it would be the work of a genius. However, I don't think that was the case.
