Movie ends with the best line ever. Main characters (two) are zipping over war-torn scenery below, to which Cyber-Ninja just jumped off into.
"Is he...could he be...is he gonna be alright?"
Second lead:
"Just let it go."
Movie ends. Your brain leaps out of both ears.
Great movie, if you enjoy this sort of thing. The special effects were the main emphasis of the whole film.
Why do all of the ninjas in the clip run at their foes like a flock of marauding albatross'?
This movie was spectacular to say the least. I knew it was a must see when I saw that on four of the five sides of the box had the same quote about the movie on it; "Special Effects Reminiscent of Star Wars." How can you beat that. The plot has quite a few holes in it, but I've got to believe that was because the writers wanted the audience to think and become intelectually stimulated. I learned something from this movie. When I need a group of superior warriors, I will line them up and stick little meters on the side of their heads and have them scream, because that's what matters right screaming not fighting skills.
Great movie! I loved all of Keita Amemiya's movies: ZEIRAM, TAO NO TSUKI, ROBO/CYBER NINJA (MIRAI NINJA WARLORD) and the recent TV serial MIKAZUKI. ^_^
I don't care what anyone says, Cyber Ninja is AWESOME! Infact, Cyber Ninja is one of, if not, my FAVORITE movie. Sure, it has more plot holes than a block of swiss cheese, but sometimes that's not such a bad thing. I don't know why I obsess with this movie, probably because I was a kid when I first saw it. Now that I am 19 years of age, I think I am still entitled to say that this movie is kick ass. If you haven't seen it already, then what the hell are you doing wasting your time online? Walk your ass to Blockbuster and rent this movie!
Never before have oscar winning actors and amazing special effects come together like they have in Cyber Ninja. The villians make a shiver run up my spine everytime i see it and when Cyber Ninja saves the day I find myself out of my seat cheering. That is why the "flying ninja pose" the evil ninjas use will appear in the hit film "CARDBOARD GLADIATORS"
i first saw this movie when i was a wee lad with my best frieend who is Chinese, it was robo ninja too me nd has been until today, i loved this movie and i have seen it countless times, lately ive been thinking how now that im older (17) nothing is as fun as when i was a kid, so i thought about Robo ninja, the funniest best damn movie ever, people all beat on it for "Stealing ideas" like the power ranger s**t and the DBZ power level s**t, but if u look at the dates this was made in 1988 meaning IT WAS FIRST so THEY copied it!! what a classic, get it now!! i am tonight :D
this movie is a classic. If you like Zeram, anime, oldschool looking kungfu-theater kind of cheese, you'll like this. don't worry about plot -its all imagery and low-tech FX that turn out quite well. Don't let the still shots fool you - this is NOT some power-rangers-esq piece of trash.
By far the most advanced prop in this movie is the briefcase bazooka
That David Medina guy is correct. This awesome movie is actually a video game adaption. The game itself unfortunately never was released outside of Japan nor was ported to any home system. As for a DVD release, only the Japanese got it. How sad is that! We fans should start emailing ADV, Manga Entertainment, or Media Blasters and try to convince one of them to bring this little gem over to Region 1 DVD.
I remember watching this movie as a kid, and it was so AWESOME! Mind you, I watched Mirai Ninja Warlord well AFTER I saw Star Wars and other SciFi flicks. Even after I had seen those supposedly superior Western movies, I was still bawled over by the Roboninja! Really cool character, especially with those cartridge-powered swords.
Little do you guys know that this movie is based on a Japanese arcade game called Mirai Ninja. I played it today on my emulator and it rules! Now I find out that Namco made a movie based on that game? Please tell me if is on DVD!
This film is a cross, or the unholy spawn, of "Masters of the Universe" and "Star Wars," with a little "Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers" thrown in. The film was shot in Japanese, and is dubbed so badly, I thought the film makers were making a joke. The cast wears more makeup than Tammy Faye Bakker, and they act just as sincere about their script, which consists of old place names like "The Fortress of the Dark Overlord."
:hot: :cheers: Hi all, this is my 1st ever post so hope it doesnt go too disastrously. can anyone pls help me get a copy of this film cyber ninja ?? i saw it back in 89 and loved it. been tryin to get it ever since. any help wud be greatly appreciated.
Absolutely great film. B movie magic, entertaining funny and a great watch. Take it for what it is, it's not as if they spent 50 million on it.
Are you crazy (polite version) Are you retarded (real version) Your comment on the power reading and "Where have I seen that before"
This movie came out WAY before DBZ
