Movie Reviews

User Review - 10/10 by Shawn MThis movie was subpar but a giant step down from the films before it. It was weird hearing Pat Morita talk in normal English & not his typical Miyagi tone. The best part of this movie was when the little karate kid wanted to trade his blue Sega Game Gear for directions to the American embassy in some South American country. For that, it gets 5 stars automatically.
User Review - 8/10 by Shane JMore humour in this one than the others. a fun film just not really an American Ninja film.
User Review - 6/10 by Sam DA watered-down part for the last in the series, and that makes it the worst overall. I would give it two stars except that little kid in the movie is really funny so it gets a three.
User Review - 6/10 by ace menough already would someone kill this guy.
User Review - 6/10 by Stuart KThis one actually has less ninja action, but more ineptitude than previous entries, it's like a retarded mish mash of the Karate Kid with previous American Ninja movies. Enough entertainment to warrant watching with like minded ninja enthusiasts. Also David Bradley kinda sucks a lot in this one, in the others he's passable, but here, ouch. bonus points for the stupid annoying kid ninja, just retarded enough at the end to earn some goodwill from me.
User Review - 6/10 by Jesse RHiro (Lee Reys) is a boy transformed by friendship and skills learned from the American Ninja (David Bradley). Plunged into a fight to stop a madman from devastating the world with a vile new poison, the boy and his Ninja Master have only each other to rely on as they face the evildoer's countless guns and goons. also stars Anne Dupont, Pat Morita, James Lew, Clement von Franckenstein, Marc Fiorini, Ron Ipale, Norman Burton, Tadashi Yamashita, Jose Guanchez, Vincente Perez, Jose Salvado, Carlos Ruiz, Tommy Arias, Rufino Perez, Vicente Vasquez, Fabrizio Mummolo, Tony Morey, Francisco Moreno, Julio Mujica, Freddy Alvarado, Alfredo Sandoval and Víctor Cárdenas. directed by Bobby Gene Leonard.
User Review - 4/10 by Shaeffer CBetter than the others, but he wishes he was Chuck Norris too.
User Review - 4/10 by Duperret JDu mal à le finir le film, David Bradley a du mal à remplacer le véritable Ninja Blanc Michael Dudikoff Ca reste un film à la hauteur de la Cannon
User Review - 2/10 by Martha AThey should have killed this concept after #1. I think I was high when I rented this.
User Review - 2/10 by Eric RI will state right off the bat that I have always been a fan of the American Ninja series. Yes I know they aren't art but I enjoy the cheesball action and bad performances. After viewing American Ninja 4, which was rather entertaining in its own B-grade way, I was looking forward to viewing American Ninja 5. The hooky cover art through me for a loop at first. It's just a lame picture of the characters in the film in stupid poses and mist added in to make it look "mystic". I was hoping the movie would be more entertaining than the cover art led on. Sadly it wasn't. Here we get the "PG-13/Karate Kid wanna-be" version of American Ninja. David Bradley (American Ninja 3 & 4) returns but this time he plays a different character. He plays Joe Castle and not Sean Davidson from American Ninja 3 & 4. I found that very strange like this wasn't originally going to be an American Ninja sequel (which would explain a lot!). One of his friends (the guy from the Karate Kid series no less) drops off his grandson (named Hiro) for Bradley to look after. Bradley reluctantly agrees and even takes the kid on a date he has that night. His date gets kidnapped by, take a wild guess, a bunch of ninja and he and the annoying Hiro kid go off to South America to rescue her. This is where the story rips-off American Ninja 2. The Ninja are using Bradley's 'girlfriend' (even though he only new her for a day) as blackmail so her father will create a deadly gas. Snore, been there, done that, and better. Another bummer is that now the great fight sequences are gone. The fights from the previous Ninja installments are more tamed down, kid friendly battle scenes with Hiro making stupid comments every now and then. It's as if the filmmakers were targeting fans of the Karate Kid series instead of fans the violent R-Rated American Ninja franchise. Mistake. To top it off, the music is some of the worst I have ever heard and belongs more to a made for cable Disney movie than a martial arts film. If you can't tell, this is the Disney version of an American Ninja film. Hell I thought any minute I would see Herbie the Love Bug driving down the street to great our heroes. Only buy this DVD if your a completist. Otherwise your better off buying American Samurai, which would have been a far better American Ninja "sequel" than this tame junk.
