Granted, it shall be no secret that I was harboring no expectations as I sat down to watch the 1987 action movie "Ninja Avengers". Why? Well, it being a late 1980s ninja movie, plus the cover wasn't exactly screaming top-of-the-line movie. But hey, for nostalgic reason, as I watched a lot of ninja movies back in the 1980s, then of course I opted to watch what writers Godfrey Ho and Stephen So had to offer.

Needless to say that I had never actually heard about this movie before now in 2022, as I stumbled upon it by sheer random chance.

First of all, the movie's title is insanely misleading, as this movie is a classic 1980s style Chinese martial arts movie. Not really a ninja movie here, unless you consider someone wearing a red headband with the word "ninja" printed on it as being ninja material. And secondly, the movie was an impressive display of poor dubbing into English.

The storyline in "Ninja Avengers" was pretty basic stuff and straight forward. Yeah, you're not in for a grand cinematic experience when and if you opt to watch a movie such as "Ninja Avengers". So directors Joseph Lai and Godfrey Ho didn't exactly impress with this movie.

The martial arts in the movie, however, were actually fairly good. Well, at least the choreography, because it was blatantly obvious that there was no physical contact between this throwing a punch or doing a kick and the recipient of the aforementioned attack.

"Ninja Avengers" is not a movie that I would recommend you waste your time, money or effort on, not even if you enjoyed the good, old school ninja movies of the 1980s.

My rating of "Ninja Avengers" lands on a three out of ten stars.

Just like those Thomas Tang "so-called" Ninja films that comes out on Imperial Video. This one has a tacked in plot of Richard Harrison trying to fight off European Ninjas in a footage that doesn't even match the film! The whole film is bascially a RED SUN rip-off (but this time Japanese steals a statue) that has a DJANGO like character carrying a cross that contains a gatlin gun. Boring, dull, but got some intresting scenes. Not recommended.

This movie is just ridiculous, it's fun af and if you don't think so I don't know why you seek out those movies in the first place.

I'm happy Mister Ho decided to cut Master Gordon into an actual Ninja movie, I couldn't even tell at first what was cut into it and what was the actual movie (until the Master, Richard Harrison entered the scene). In Ninja Protector for example he just edited Ninja footage into a crime-sex film, that made it hard to understand why Master Gordon was part of it all.

Ninja Avengers is pure and honest fun. Django Jesus mowing down dozens of Ninjas was the perfect and most insane finale ever. I loved it on every trashy level. The story itself is so basic level that it doesn't matter what exactly is going on.

Ninja Avengers is easily on the levels of Bionic Ninja, Ninja Squad and Ninja Challenge, don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

If you are a trash enthusiast or love underground filmmaking then please watch this piece of cinematic gold as fast as you can.

The overacting, messy editing and nonsense conclusion make this the perfect Ho&Lai experience.

Drink a few beer, smoke a good one and enjoy the adventures of Master Gordon and Co.

10/10 on a pure entertainment level, as a movie this is a 3/10.
