A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Godfrey Ho is probably the greatest trash or b-movie director, he is notorious for his ninja movies, Ninja Thunderbolt is probably the most notorious of his Ninja movies.Usually, the "plot" on Godfrey Ho movies are confusing and sometimes he "recicles" parts of his older movies and add's them to his "new" movie (AKA: Cut and paste technique).This time, Godfrey Ho tell us the story about the Ninja Golden Idol getting stolen. Inspector Wang gets involved in the "Ninja Empire" while investigating "regular" crimes.Highlights of the film include: -a chase scene is put "on speed up", adding a comical effect - A sex scene (are you thinking that this is a kid's movie ?) - The Chase scene where a bunch of ninjas are chasing Detective Wang (while he is driving a "Bubble Car"). Recommended for who wants to get approached in the craptastic world of Godfrey Ho !

If (like me) you've ever yearned to witness a ninja make crude finger gestures at pursuing police officers whilst driving a car at break neck speeds or to witness a group of ninja on roller skates frantically battering a tiny bubble car with sticks then this my friends is surely the movie for you! Yes it could only be a Godfrey Ho monstrosity....er, I mean masterpiece.These movies were not exactly coherent plot wise at the best of times so it came as doubly baffling when I sat down to watch this one and found that it was an Italian dub with no subtitles!!!!! Nonetheless, I braved the linguistic barrier to behold what appears to be some of the most random and unconnected footage ever spliced into one movie!To be honest, I doubt had I watched the movie in an English dub it would have made much difference-this film is all over the place!The police hero seems to get into a fight every five minutes or so after which a random gratuitous sex scene between some of the other characters suddenly turns up for no particular reason which is immediately followed by our hero getting involved in yet another scuffle!Richard Harrison (playing another cop/ninja) makes a drug related arrest once in a while also and has a brief ninja duel at the films climax....Yep, all in all this is a real mess!Still, having said this, some scenes such as those mentioned at the beginning of this review, do add a not inconsiderable charm to the proceedings here and there is even an opportunity to watch a young Jackie Chan in action (for about 10 seconds!!!!!)Overall: Recommended for die hard bad ninja movie lovers and Godfrey Ho fans (yes we really exist)

I have to say that this movie contains the best chase scene ever to be filmed in the history of mankind! When the main character, Mr. Harry Wong (no joke) gets into his tiny little car and is chased by ninjas wearing white rollerskates with big pink wheels. If you manage to find this one, rent it! Just beware of the 2 absolutely random and gratuities sex scenes. They kinda pop outta nowhere.All in all, it's your typical Kung Fu type movie out of Hong Kong, but with a bizarre and puzzling twist at the end. "Ninja Death!"Watch out.

This ninja-film is extremely bad and ridiculous. Besides from the fact that it is very dull and therefore hard to follow, the only good thing about it is that it's silly in a funny way (but only sometimes). I remember (OK you don't remember bad movies you saw 10 years ago, but this one was so bad that i did remember) that I rented this movie on video in the late 80's and thought I had a really exciting ninja-film to kill the evening with, but how wrong I was. (1 out of 10)
