“Ninja Terminator” is a title that perfectly indicates how silly the film is going to be. This is not even one movie, it’s a Frankenstein creation of two separate martial arts movies stitched together. Filmmaker Godfrey Ho would film ninja content to go alongside parts of other movies.

The plot is almost indecipherable at times, which is not surprising considering it tries to tie together two unrelated movies with bad editing and dubbing. In some scenes we see ninjas fighting and in other, we see some other people fighting. There is something about the Golden Ninja Warrior statue, which supposedly has magical powers but it’s near impossible to care about what is happening. I’m not even sure if the filmmakers could explain the plot.

The movie stars Richard Harrison, an American known in some circles for his exploitation movies in both Italy and Hong Kong. Harrison plays a ninja by the name of Harry. The other protagonist is named Jaguar Wong and he is pretty much a knock-off Bruce Lee (“Enter The Dragon”). Because of the way this film was constructing, everybody has been dubbed. The dubbing combined with the editing allows for hilarious sequences such as a phone conversation between Harry and Jaguar Wong. I was particularly amused by scenes where characters literally came out of thin air.

There a lot of action scenes in “Ninja Terminator” and while they are nothing special, they are somewhat amusing to watch. Watching a low-budget martial arts flick like this gives you a new level of appreciation for the films of Jackie Chan (“Police Story”), Jet Li (“Once Upon A Time In China”) and Donnie Yen (“Ip Man”). Those obsessed with martial arts movies might be able to get a few kicks out of this (no pun intended) but I think most people will be far too confused by the plot and the editing.
