 Absolutley Terrible August 25, 2008
J. Lin
After watching Flight of the Conchords, I thought I would give this a try. Jemaine Clement was painful to watch in this... maybe one funny scene in the entire movie. Now, I am one who loves terrible movies... but i realized they are usually the ones that are supposed to be serious... Steven Segal, Chuck Norris, etc... This movie was not funny at all and I felt ashamed for having bought it.

A bit disappointing that Jemaine is not in this movie as much as we had hoped, but overall its pretty entertaining especially if you can allow yourself to take it for what it is- a spoof on old ninja flicks with silly overdub and sweet moves :-)
A Great Mockery May 27, 2008
Daniel B. Whitaker (Champaign, IL USA)
This movie is hilarious if you enjoy stupid humor. A great mockery of martial arts films and old school dubbed Asian imports. As long as you expect it to be bad, and realize it is bad for a reason, you will enjoy this!

OK, I am admittedly an unabashed Jemaine Clement fan and think that Flight of the Conchords is one of the best comedy shows on TV right now. But in all honesty, I really didn't have high expectations for this film at the beginning. I thought it was likely to be a low-budget, testosterone-drenched, comedic tribute/spoof of Kung Fu movies. And...well...yes, that's exactly what it turned out to be. But to my surprise, it also turned out to be an amazingly entertaining film and one that had me in stitches at several points. And it's OK if you're like me and aren't really that familiar with all the ninja stuff that's being alluded to throughout the plot. All you need to appreciate this film is a sense of humor and an appreciation of the absurd.
The best part was... March 27, 2008
Kelly M. Jones (Portland, OR USA)
I enjoyed this martial arts spoof film, but the best part was the "Making of Tongan Ninja" featurette in the special features. The movie itself was quite silly with obvious overdubbing of english over english. The featurette is done very comically as well.
