Ninja Avengers (1987)
I do not like yellow...
I have seen this film under the title "Operation Ninja-6. Champion on fire". And what can i say about this movie? A machine gun in a cross - not bad, really not bad. And it is single positive thing that i can say about no-ninja part of this movie. About ninja... This film is not so good as "Ninja-squad" or "Ninja-terminator". Why? Becourse... Firstly... the fighting scenes with Ricard Harrison against private ninjas of opposing gang are short and not interesting. Bad ninjas do not demonstrate a high level of skill in martial arts (no acrobatic tricks etc). Secondaly... The evil chief-ninja (Ringo)is only a pale shadow of such charismatic and collocate characters as Ivan the Red (Dave Wheeler in "Ninja-squad") or Baron (Jonathan Wattis in "Ninja-terminator"}. Even Pierre Tremblay in "Ninja champion" is more impressive. And finally... I do not like a yellow ninja suit! I like camouflage, black... well white ninja suit. I do not understand a choice of Richard Harrison in this not too impressive movie.
Challenge of the Ninja (1986)
Camouflage ninja - is the best ninja. (it is tradition of genre)
Great, great movie! Really great! The brilliant masterpiece of martial arts ninja movie. Classical plot - a one good ninja versus a gang bad ninjas. Five fights between ninjas - four against private members of ninja gang and a final duel versus chief-ninja. The last combat is a really good. Yes, the fighting scenes are not very long, but you must understand, if you fight with swords your first successful attack will be a last attack too. About Philippo part of movie - i am not a philippo. I do not understand their mentality... Watch only ninja part of this movie. You will get a good moody. Yes, Bruce Baron is not so cool as Richard Harrison but Richard Harrison is a professional actor (italian school) and a cool man, but Bruce... is only a cool guy. I'm sorry for my English.
