What? This doesn’t make any sense! I saw his head get chopped off, but I suppose this may be that ninja magic I’m always hearing about. The old man comes into the dojo holding a prosthetic head. Woah! It feels like they put the last ten minutes of the movie at the beginning, but we learn it was just some elaborate training exercise. The white ninja dives off a waterfall and fights another ninja underwater before making his way to some kind of dojo and lopping this old guy’s head off with his ninja sword. Then the movie starts and we see another ninja dressed in white start attacking all of these red ninjas and black ninjas, slicing them up with his ninja sword. We get to see a ninja donned in black against a black backdrop showing off all of his ninja moves like prepping a poison dart or twirling sihs around. So Menahem Golan got Enter the Ninja as a consolation prize.Įnter the Ninja delivers what just may be the greatest opening credit sequence ever. The scuttlebutt is that Menahem Golan wanted to direct Death Wish 2, but Charles Bronson refused to star in it unless Michael Winner was at the helm. It’s bad for the morale of the other henchmen in your organization.ġ982’s Enter the Ninja from director Menahem Golan…yeah, the same Golan of Golan & Globus (should be a David Mamet play) directed this film. If the hero is holding your number 2 guy hostage, don’t shoot him just to show how ruthless you are. I don’t understand why some super villains kill off their own henchmen. Not if, but when I realize my dreams of becoming a super villain, I want rest assure any of you potential henchmen out there that I will treat you fairly, and by fairly I mean not kill you whenever it’s convenient.
