Review of Ninja The Protector
Jackie Chan stars in this excellent ninja film as a rickshaw runner with a past
but a dream. After Chung Fun (Jackie Chan) steals a sacred scroll from the
forbidden city he finds he has no choice but to become Ninja the Protector of
the Sacred Scroll. His cohort is Cao Pi, a wisecracking but amiable fellow. As
the film continues he kidnaps the Princess, portrayed by Yvette Chang. Numerous
twists throughout the film will keep you on the edge of your seat. With a cameo
appearance by Richard Harrison, who not only writes the scroll but teaches
Jackie Chan everything he knows, this film is a definite winner.
Strong choreography adds to the excellence of this film; possibly one of the
best ever in a ninja film. Special effects, including flamethrowing and smoke
effects will leave the viewer in awe.
Ninja fans will love this film, which is destined to become a much beloved
classic, watched time and time again.
