Golam-Globus jumps aboard the Ninja bandwagon. Perennial spaghetti westerner Nero exchanges rawhide and a six-shooter for a Ninja costume and Katana. George provides the eye-candy, as Nero's best mates wife. Showing that Ninja are in fact, low characters, he gives her one, while his mate is flaked out drunk, nice move, hero. Impressively poorly researched too, Kosugi rants about his ancestors being Samurai, and Nero's acceptance into Ninjahood is a disgrace. I got news for you kid, it's you who is the disgrace, Ninja were dispised by everyone, especially Samurai. Nero is totally untrained in martial arts, so although he is doubled in the suited scenes, he has to do a few moves in plain clothes, with no double. Elvis kicks are the best way to describe it ( a phrase coined by a mate)
Well worth seeing though, its not a bad film, its a good film, with a few bad points.
