Why is it not on the top 100 worst list?!, 22 January 2007
1/10
Author: barrytwomey-1 from Ireland

Like some of the other reviews, this movie ranked amongst my top 10 worst (maybe even the worst) I have ever seen. I saw the movie in German with no subtitles and was stunned to find that it all went exactly as I thought after seeing the first 15 minutes.

Bad acting, worse plot, awful loop holes and over used movie formulas - why does the 'crazy' guy always get the shotgun or the feuding rivals become blood-brothers before the end.

Holding an assault rifle sideways with one hand is never going to work and it made the action in American Ninja look respectable. It doesn't even offer the deliberate comedy aspect of Commando and feels like a cheap version of the 'Toy Soldiers', bad kids do something good plot.

Watch if you want to see a movie to add to your all time worst list.
