mwcanadian-99023 *may have spoilers*First things first, I enjoyed the first "3 Ninja's" movie and found it a bit entertaining as a child. the sequels however stunk, but the first 2 sequels did something right that part 4 failed to do, make the children seem to age. that's the first major strike with 3 Ninja's High Noon at Mega Mountain. Rocky looks about the same age, Colt looks around the same age and looks like he lost touch with reality with that hair style (please ditch that) and the worst of them all was Tum-Tum. it's not the actor's fault because he tries hard, but when i see the first movie and then the last, Tum-Tum looks younger and more fit. Tum-Tum is supposed to be big, not slim. Another major issue with this movie is the plot. the plot of villains hi-jacking an amusement park isn't a bad idea. the bad idea though is that a lot of the things they do aren't really reality based. there's no way on Earth that a bad woman would be able to hack a roller coaster ride and turn it upside down like it occurred in the movie in that time. they should've made it more believable. also when the bad guys finally reveal themselves, it shows that some people (i guess) didn't hear that the park was hi-jacked as there are people still riding rides.and finally another issue is Hulk Hogan. He's just not a good actor and in this movie, he's just kinda there to provide a few fight scenes until the over acting Loni Anderson knocks him out or captures him. then at the end, the kids give credit to Hulk for saving the day when the best thing he did was hit a torpedo that the kids created. this movie wasn't awful though because Jim Varney at least was having fun and i DID enjoy the female characters they made. Rocky's girlfriend was fine as she was there to look pretty and depend on Rocky while the boys' new neighbor Amanda did her part well as the Velma of the group by being smart with computers. if the movie actually did better with picking actors who were older, then this movie would've been better. the biggest issues couldn't give it a better grade than 4. if you enjoy a good laugh, then watch this movie because Hulk will crack you up...i still don't understand how Jim Varney can't tell that Hulk Hogan is following him.

The_Light_Triton I reviewed this title back in November 2008, about 4 years ago, and while I still come to the conclusion that this movie still gets a rating of 1 because of how ridiculously bad it is, upon seeing it a few more times, I have to dig deeper into this movie and provide some more thoughts and ideas about it.First off, if you've seen the movie, Skip the next paragraph.In the recent years of the 3 Ninjas, They've grown older and more mature, and because of this, their interest in being ninjas has taken a backseat to more older things. While Tum-tum is still a young boy, Rocky has moved onto girlfriends, and Colt is merely stuck in the middle. Not only that, Tum-tum's Favorite Saturday morning hero, Dave Dragon, is about to cancel his 15-year long superhero show, due to low ratings and loss of interest. His final appearance will be at the Mega mountain theme park on tum-tum's birthday. So Tum-tum wants to go, and his older brothers tag along with their new friend, Amanda, who seems to be an expert on Computer Programming, hacking, and complex electronics. while at the theme park, a group of mercenary Ninjas, led by escaped convict, Mary Ann rogers, AKA Medusa, take over the theme park and threaten to harm it's people, but will let them go in exchange for a large sum of money. Will they succeed in their evildoing, or will the 3 ninjas save the day? OK, Upon seeing this movie a few more times and reading other comments left by users, There's lots to say now. First and foremost, i see 2 obvious references to mid-90s Role Playing games - First, look at Colt's hair. not only does it look ridiculous, it's a bad rip-off of Hero-class Bowie from shining force II, A sega Genesis RPG from 1994. Also, look at Amanda. Doesn't her character seem familiar to another girl from a 1995 SNES RPG? she does have thick glasses, knows her way around complex electronics and computers - Kinda like Lucca from Chrono Trigger maybe? Secondly, kids movies of the 90's can be totally remembered for kids outsmarting adults and leaving a trail of laughter in their wake. It started with Home alone, from 1990. Then it carried throughout the 90s, but around the mid-to-late 90s, the cliché got really old. this movie feeds off that cliché like Michael Moore feeds off of McDonalds.Thirdly, The aged stars of our show. First there's Hulk Hogan. Now i love wrestling, to me, it's entertainment and should not be looked at as a legitimate sport, cause it's not. Hulkamania was still running wild for the hulk at the time, he was in his 40s (if this was filmed in 1997, released in 1998, and hulk was born in 1953, he would've been 44 years old. For the most part, his acting isn't really believable, but his larger than life character in the ring more than makes up for it. then we have our other aged star, Loni Anderson. this was a few years after her divorce with Burt Reynolds, and i gotta admit, with all the leather, the make-up, lipstick, and sexy cougar voice, I was still turned on to her. How old was she around the time of filming? Well, she was born in 1945, making her 52 around the time of filming. Hot damn! But her acting skills in this film are as follows...Fourth, Loni Anderson might as well have starred in a porno, cause her acting skills, are totally unbelievable. And adding onto another user's comment, The Dialogue between Loni and Chelsey (Amanda) feels like watching a lesbian porno, about an aged beauty queen wanting to have her way with a young woman.So the bottom line, 3 Ninjas; High Noon at Mega Mountain isn't what you'd call a memorable film, i'd prefer the term "Boring Saturday afternoon fare." it's totally forgettable, the only reason i'll ever remember it is because Loni Anderson was a total cougar in it. I'd rather remember hulk hogan for his Wrestling matches.1/10

bug76 The only reason I bought this DVD is because I'm such a fan of Varney's. I wouldn't have known about this movie much less get it if he wasn't in it. While lots of people rag on Hulk Hogan, he wasn't the worst actor. By far, the most wooden performance goes to Loni Anderson. If this is a family oriented movie, why in the world did they have her dress in that skanky leather outfit that was far too short? Terrible casting as far as Loni goes. She was supposed to be the evil Medusa but I didn't buy it. She just didn't have the quality of pulling off the 'bad guy' type of role. She was much better on 'WKRP in Cinncinati'. I got a little tired of Tum Tum's 'Ay-yahs' after a while. They were too high pitched and over done. All 6 stars go to Jim Varney. I was actually rooting for Lothar to become successful in his mission for he was the only one of the bad guys with the brilliance to pull off the heist. He easily outshone all the stars, as usual. He always gives 100% to whatever role he played as you can see here. Jim and Victor were the two best actors in this movie. Maybe if Jim had cast and directed this, it would've been a bigger box office success. The man was a brilliant actor and a genius. If you're a fan of Varney's, then yes, get the movie just to watch him. Otherwise, don't bother.

TheLittleSongbird I have seen a lot of movies, old and new, good and bad. 3 Ninjas:High Noon at Mega Mountain is a really awful movie, not the all-time worst, but everything that makes a bad movie bad is in abundance in this wretched excuse of a movie. In fact, the only somewhat tolerable asset was the soundtrack, that was decent compared to how awful everything else was.What made the movie especially bad was the plot. It is incredibly lame and predictable, with one of the dumbest endings I have seen in recent memory. Production values-wise, the movie is not good either, the cinematography, sets and scenery are of shoddy quality and the editing is so slip-shod it hurts the eyes and makes the editing in a movie like The Medallion seem Oscar-worthy. The fight scenes are poorly choreographed with little or no drive or energy, while the script and direction are terrible. Same with the acting, the kids are all annoying, the villains are pathetic in both character and acting while Hulk Hogan has a poor character and is not given much to do.Overall, an awful film and not worth it. 1/10 Bethany Cox
