“Ninja Dragon” is another movie from director Godfrey Ho, known for churning out low-budget movies like there was no tomorrow. If you are expecting to see something in the same league as your average film from Jet Li (“Fearless”) then you have made a substantial miscalculation.

Like other Godfrey Ho movies, this was made by inserting scenes with ninjas into another movie and dubbing it all so the film makes pretty much no sense. If you do manage to figure out the plot of “Ninja Dragon”, you are either a genius or crazy. There is something about rival gangs competing over territory but to be honest, I had no clue what was happening most of the time.

Richard Harrison stars as Gordon. You may recognise him from other Ho movies including “Ninja Terminator” and “The Ninja Squad”. Harrison’s character is a ninja that constantly pulls down his facial covering to reveal his moustache. I assume that he does this to remind us that he has a moustache (just in case we forgot). The scenes with Harrison at least involve some martial arts. Most of the characters are from some gangster movie that he has been resurrected and mutilated by Ho. There are a few brief moments where the ninja characters interact with the gangster film characters but they are never in the same shot and it’s so pathetic that it is funny.

If you have seen any of these Godfrey Ho movies with ninjas in them then you have pretty much seen them all. The ninja scenes are mildly amusing but the majority of the film is very dull. Those that are in desperate need of seeing more low-budget martial arts movies might want to hunt this one down but most people are going to be put to sleep by this.
