Caught the ass-end of "American Ninja 2"...have recently grabbed all of those films on a whim.
Wow...I used to love these movies, and while the first was not bad, I felt like this one was terrible.
Will still watch the rest though.
Too bad about Michael Dudikoff never really taking off too much, have only seen him in maybe 3 movies aside from AN 1, 2, and 4.
I hear the fifth one isn't even part of the series, rather a cash-in rename of another film starring one of the guys from the latter part of the series...as a different character.
Looks almost like a kids film from what I've seen.
Will get around to all of it though, I suppose.
Still love seeing ninjas getting projectiles thrown at them.
...Never really seen a "serious" ninja movie, is there any?
I know there were quite a few ninja themed movies in the 80's, though I never really saw any.
The last "modern" ninja movie I saw was "ninja assassin" which was fun but really pointless.
Does Azumi count? That one I could dig, even if it was a living manga.
