well theres at least two ninja empires
this ninja empire has japanese boobage and no plot
the other ninja empire, which is the one i was searching for when i came across this one, is pretty good too. it has a plot but its kinda confusing, theres two rape scenes but you only really get to see one, its a REALLY good movie, i picked it up because i figured it would be poorly dubbed... and it was only 4 dollars, i was right, the dubbing is pretty bad but all in all its a good movie... at least i thought so...

Classic example of ninja porn
If your looking for plot, character development, humor, action, comprehensability this may not be your movie. On the other hand if you'ld enjoy seeing lots of tiny japenese girls doing arobics while fending off hoards of invading ninja's using only beach towels and the occational slap this is your movie. This movie is so type defining I had to watch it 3 times (there's no way you'll finish it on your first attempt). It would appear the the director took two other movies and removed all the unecessary (and necessary) plot and left us with a ample supply of jiggling. So my suggestion to you is buy this movie because no rental store in the mind will have it available to rent. ... Read more

Jackie Chan at his best
i've seen many anime in my childhood. city hunter is very popular in japan and i managed to watch a few episodes in korea. i always wandered what would it be like if an anime show was converted to a movie starring real people. to my luck, city hunter starred the legendary dragon (Jackie Chan). he's not japanese and a little old but that doesn't matter. this movie is full of anime style physical and verbal humor. i can't remember a moment i wasn't laughing. and also the action sequences are awesome. jackie chan is awesome on skateboard (wheels on meals). fight scenes are cool too using his trademark agility and stunning techniques (but no jumping off walls in this movie). jackie chan used a stunt double about 3 times but only for simple things (i don't know why). i can't describe how well the action and comedy are, you just have to see the moive, it's really that good. if you like anime and you like jackie chan, then this movie is perfect for you.

Too absurd even by the Chan standard
Even a bad Jackie Chan movie turns out to be better than most of the action/comedies available, but City Hunter is an exception.

The action is hard to follow, and the humor too childish. By example, while fighting at the game room, he turns into characthers of the "Street fighter" video game, turning even into Chun Li (with make up, dress and everything) and making some of the moves as in the videogame.

It is uncomfortable to enjoy the movie when it turns so stupid. There is a good scene in which Chan, fighting inside a movie theatre, imitates the movements of Bruce Lee on the screen. But thhat scene alone is not worth the experience of "City Hunter"

this is a must see for the anime fans
This is a completely different kind of jackie chan movie. I did not see the anime of city hunter but from what i saw in the movie i bet they tried hard to keep to the series with the kind of antics the people in the movie do. I am writing this review without finishing watching the movie, but so far the movie is excellent. The voice is not Jackie Chan's though. Its some one else just like what they did with Gorgeous.

ONE THING I MUST WARN YOU ALL THOUGH IS THAT EVEN THOUGH THE COVER SAYS WIDESCREEN THE MOVIE IS FULL SCREEN.

I bought this movie in best buy for 9.99 and was hoping for the widescreen like it says on the box. this is not a two sided dvd where one side is wide and the other normal. The DVD itself does not say if it is widescreen or full screen. it just say the movie name on it.

I hope this is a screw up on the part of 20th Century Fox where some dum guy mixed a full screen DVD in the widescreen box, but if it isn't then they SUCK real bad. STOP FALSE ADVERTISING to make movie off of Jackie Chan's name. But i didn't find a full screen dvd for sale even online. This is the only reason i give the DVD a 3 out of 5.

Worst. Jackie. Ever.
I have probably seen a dozen Jackie Chan movies and loved them all, City Hunter was the first movie of his to dissapoint me. The stunts are almost nonexistant and pretty lame when they do appear. The fight scenes are also dissapointing.

The worst part of the movie would have to be the rap video sequence. It was the most god awful thing that I have seen in my life.

The best part of the movie was when Jackie and his opponents are fighting in a video arcade and they all get transformed into different street fighter 2 characters. That part is actually really cool and if you are an old school fan of street fighter I would recommend renting this DVD just to see that. Other than that this is a movie to pass on.

STICK WITH HK IMPORTS "ALWAYS"
Why American production make HK movies look so cheap? First of all, they cut off so much scene, second of all ruin it by making look act so dumb by English Dubb. ALWAYS stick with ORIGINAL LICENSED HK RELEASE. Be careful with cheap imports, boots, and bulls though. ... Read more

the great pink ninja
This is perhaps the best/worst/funniest movie i have ever seen. The american ninja's are clad in costumes that come in varieties such as neon pink and neon yellow. The fighting is mediocre, but the cinemetography/acting/audio is perhaps the worst/best/funniest i have seen. This movie has the most amazing ending ever. Watch this movie!!!!! It will blow your mind. They have headbands with the word "ninja" screened on it. The plot is nebulous at best, but the mustaches make up for it. They totally rip off the ET theme durring the badminton scene. Seriously, stop reading this, and track down this movie and buy it.

Hiliarious Ninja action
This is a great movie to watch if you have a bunch of friends over. You will find yourself on the floor laughing your head off. The worst/funny acting and voice over-dubbs are just enough to get you started. From the crappy stop-action camera work to the cheesy explosions this movie is sure to be a hit ! Look on amazon.com for ordering and price. ... Read more
