Episode 9 - American Ninja (1985)

  • Summary

  • This week on Revenge of the Show, we get to destroy any fond memories of Jesse's favorite movie as a kid: American Ninja! What's the plot of this fantastic film, you ask? Some white dude with a forgotten past (who happens to be a private in the US Army) suddenly becomes the most ninja-est ninja ever to walk the Earth, and he faces off against the evil "Black Ninja" and his entire army of multi-colored ninjas "Somewhere in the Philippines"...cause you know, ninjas are native to "Somewhere in the Philippines." And why does he face off against these ninjas, you ask? Because everyone else in this movie - and their mother - is corrupt and trying to sell stolen - and completely ridiculous looking - weapons taken from the US Army base "Somewhere in the Philippines..." So, does the "White Ninja" win against the evil "Black Ninja?" I'm sure he does, but I wasn't paying attention. I was so stuck on the fact that the "White Ninja" was being court-martialed (and being hated by his fellow soldiers) because he stopped a bunch of the bad ninjas and saved the Colonel's daughter, preventing them from kidnapping her as a part of their evil plot. I couldn't tell you why kidnapping her was a part of their evil plot...I really have no idea. Leverage, maybe? If you figure it out, please let me know.
