Pocket Ninjas Trailers

Somewhere in New Jersey, a group of masked rollerblading children "save the universe" by training to fight the evil Cobra Khan through a series of action-packed montages. Along the way they hypothesize some slapstick hijinks in a balloon factory, and save the day through a hypothetical Sonic Virtual Reality battle. A real treat!

Pocket Ninjas is one of the worst movies mankind has come across. I normally like to watch bad movies just to laugh at them so when I saw this inside the bottom 5 I thought that I would nearly die in hysterical laughing while watching this movie. Yes I did laugh at it for about half of the movie. The reason I say half is because the rest of the movie are training sequences that use the same footage over and over again. By the fourth training sequence I was literally praying that these tedious sequences would come to a close but they didn't. Now to the rest of this junk. The acting was by far way worse than those cheesy commercials on TV. In fact, the acting in this "movie" made the acting in the commercials on TV look Oscar-worthy. All of the actors looked really bored on screen. The story is literally nonexistent. There are countless amounts of huge plot holes and continuity issues in Pocket Ninjas. So much that you'd think it was made to be a parody. But it isn't. Anyways, I wouldn't recommend this crap to anyone.

If you are wondering how bad this movie is to be in the bottom 100 then take it from me that this is literally the WORST movie of ALL time. Words cannot begin to describe the storyline... why are there are over 10 montages of the same footage?Worst music, dialogue, filming, acting, everything.I am lost for words to describe the awfulness of this movie, it's like 3 ninjas mixed with funniest home videos, it sucks, it's offensive and i'm pretty sure someone has vomited from simply viewing this film.0 out of 10 stars I want every copy destroyed to save the humanity from cinematography's version of Satan

Aye, aye, aye....where to begin?! This horrible movie is just terrible in just about every way...no, wait...EVERY WAY. My only questions are who was insane enough to think this sort of film would sell AND why is this movie currently only ranked the fifth worst film on IMDb?! The film looks like someone with a few dollars (not that many, actually) thought that other martial arts films are bad because they are violent, have actors with actual martial arts skills and don't star talentless kids and teens. So, they went to their nearest karate studio and recruited all the white, yellow and a few green belt kids and asked them if they wanted to star in a movie! While I saw a lot of people with black belts on here, I just assume they bought them and did nothing to earn them, as my cat knows about as much about self-defense as these knuckleheads!! The plot, not that you'll ever care, is that an evil force (led by a cute 9 year-old) can only be countered by three talentless 'ninjas'. These good ninjas consist of three kids in karate who are given special masks that allow them to have really, really below-average and SLOW fighting skills!! If these kids are the world's only hope,...then we are so royally screwed! There is nothing...nothing positive I can say about this film. Horrible writing (if they even had I writers--I honestly think they just made it up as they went along, horrible action (I hate to even use the word 'action'--this implies something more than Tai Chi speed fighting), inept direction and annoying characters--this film rates a zero in all departments. Plus, the idea of watching a film consisting mostly of obnoxious teens with their annoying dialog is NOT anyone's idea of a good time!! The only value this film might have is to use to interrogate members of Al Qaeda, however Amnesty International would be all over the President's butt if they ever did anything that cruel and inhuman!!

My favorite scene is the one where the White Dragon fights one of Cobra Khan's minions in a carnival building. Also, when Gary Daniels tries to woo the woman in the blue spandex, the outpourings of poetry from his mouth makes me wish it was I that he was speaking to. I once saw a movie called "Manos: The Hands of Fate," and thought it was pretty good. After I saw "Pocket Ninjas," I realized that "pretty good" was just not good enough. I have no wish to turn this review into a panegyric or paean to the beauty and incomprehensible, stunning visual conceptualization of this cinematic masterpiece, but truly, you need to see this if you are ever going to consider yourself a true connoisseur of film. Mmm. I think I'm going to slide it into my DVD player right now. . .
