    another piece of comedy gold, there is no way that this film can or even could be taken seriously!

    Rating reflects how much I liked these movies as a kid :-)
  • March 23, 2009
    Poor story, but acting was acceptable.
  • February 12, 2009
    A lot of stabbing. Pretty good.

    Good film. Has a strong storyline and Michael Dudikoff's martial arts have inproved a lot from the original.

    "Ninja? What the hell are ninja?"
    When Marines on a tropical paradise start disappearing, it's up to Curtis Jackson and the American Ninja, Joe Armstrong (often imitated, never duplicated) to get to the bottom of things. With a little help, Jackson and Armstrong must stop an evil...( read more) scientist from creating his own brand of genetically engineered super ninjas. SERIOUSLY.
    Alright. The skinny on this film: 'American Ninja 2' is hella fun. This is easily the second greatest movie ever made. Everything from the theme song to the fight scenes, the Val Kilmer-lookalike to the cheesy acting may not scream Oscar, but it sure screams entertaining. On top of that, the plethora of one liners generated from this masterpiece can be applied to any aspect of our daily lives: "Rangers, my son, rangers." This is truly a movie to snub the critics and entertain the masses.

    Joe Armstrong (Michael Dudikoff) & Curtis Jackson (Steve James) are US Army Rangers assigned to investigate the disappearance of American soldiers (Marines) on a small British-controlled island in the Caribbean.

    Im sure I saw this... because I saw them all. I just don't know how to decipher between any of them.
    But they are all great.

    This movie had potential, but fell through the cracks. To bad.
