The stars of THE DEVIL SWORD return in another outrageous Indonesian adventure! An army of scumbags armed with machine guns and rocket launchers attack a magician who possesses a magic necklace. They mange to take it from him but later it proves that its not the real necklace. That's when all hell breaks loose... REVENGE OF NINJA hardly has any ninjas but is packed with non-stop trashy violence and delivers everything you can expect from an Indonesian action film: huge explosions, tortures, beatings, unbelievable fights and the usual atrocious dubbing.
Don't be fooled by the title if you're looking for some ninja action- this is just another incomprehensible mess of a movie that does not contain any actual ninjas! Good luck sorting through the motley assortment of scenes for any kind of story or characters to identify with. It's difficult to tell if this is a period piece, modern-day action movie or a post-apocalyptic flick. (Lots of people in it have archaic weapons, but occasionally someone has a gun. Also, some people drive cars, but others seem to teleport around.) One thing's for sure though- it stinks! You could find better ways to waste your time than with this turkey. Try watching fresh paint dry, for instance.
