Format:DVD
this is the first outing of sho kosugis famous ninja trilogy,and while not exciting as revenge of the ninja or ninja 3 the domination its still a fairly decent movie.stars franco nero and susan george.nero playing a good ninja(dressed in white)and kosugi(dressed in black)playing the bad guy.its a fairly bad storyline and the actings pretty dreadful.even some of the martial arts action is badly choreographed,but theres something about this movie that makes you forgive all the bad points.the weaponry and the ninja philosophy being a couple.ive just checked the bbfc website and it seems this film is going to have the cock fight edited out.(filmed in the Philippines where cock fighting was considered a sport)which is no bad thing,but all the rest of the movie including all the weaponry and some nasty deaths are going to be re-instated for the first time in the uk.if your going for a decent ninja movie id suggest revenge of the ninja or the octagon,but if you own them and looking for a fix of ninja action then enter the ninja maybe what your looking for.

Watched this on tv this morning and it is hilarious. The fight scenes are comical and the acting is dire which makes it all the better. Whoever did the casting with the short man with the hook must have been blind or a comic genius.
I don't think it was meant to be a comedy but if you want a good laugh with your mates watch this one

This remains my favorite Ninja movie!
90% of the movies in this genre are absolutely awful. The acting in this one isn't exactly Oscar-worthy either. Franco Nero, however, is amazing as the white Ninja causing trouble to the local crime lord...leading him to call in an equally skilled ninja from Japan. This movie contains the greatest ninja showdown ever filmed as the white and black ninja (the awesome Sho Kosugi) face off at the end. This ranks just behind the Bruce Lee classics. Essential to your collection if you are a martial arts fan.

Brilliant!
I loved this film! The acting and some of the dialogue is incredibly cheesy but it all adds to the overall effect. Read more

Amusingly bad movie
I bought this film for 50p and when I started watching it I thought I had wasted my money. But suddenly half hour into the film a waster comments that rather than fight for his... Read more
