American Ninja: A Martial Arts Odyssey into Cinematic Absurdity

B-Movie Bliss

Get ready to embark on a martial arts odyssey with Brian on this episode of B-Movie Bliss as he takes a hilarious and thought-provoking dive into the '80s cult classic, "American Ninja." In this cinematic rollercoaster, our mullet-sporting hero, Joe Armstrong, grapples with sinister mercenaries, explosive shurikens, and a plot thinner than ninja smoke.

Brian dissects the film's unintentional humor, from Michael Dudikoff's deadpan ninja vibes to the cringe-worthy yet iconic dialogue that will leave you both scratching your head and in stitches. The absurdity of the fight sequences, complete with questionable tactics and an arsenal of weapons that defy the laws of physics, will have you questioning everything you thought you knew about martial arts.

Join B-Movie Bliss for a nostalgic journey into the neon-soaked, synth-laden landscape of "American Ninja," where bad becomes a badge of honor. Is it a guilty pleasure, a masterpiece in disguise, or just a glorious mess? Find out as Brian rates this '80s gem and invites you to revel in the blissful chaos of B-movie magic.
