you know and after the first few chuck norris movies and i got so i could tell that a movie was produced by golan globus even if i tuned in in the middle and without ever looking at the credits or the title. what more i could tell it was golan globus within a minute of screen time. something about the story structure and the goofy relationships between the characters and the mannered dialog and the wooden acting (spiked with the occasional outright terrible performance) and the scene tempos and rhythms that made albert pyun look like john mctiernan and the paper thin plots and not ready for prime time fight choreography. golan globus has been incredibly consistent over the years in style and subject matter and point of view. what can you say and it must work for them and since they have produced literally dozens of movies. you go to one of their productions and and you know exactly what youre getting. and it ain not brain food and folks. ninja 3 is another piece of hackwork in a long line of products from the g g sausage factory and and offers the typical limited pleasures to the movie goers palate. you have got a bad ninja and slicing up cops and criminals and anyone else who gets in their way. you have got a good ninja and pledged to stop him. you have got a westerner thrown into the mix so we americans can identify with him (or her in this case) and be reassured that we can still beat those pesky orientals at their own game. you have got a love interest (who is usually also the worst actor or ress in the film) fencing with the hero. you have got your endless string of assaults and assassinations and lingering shots of men gurgling in agony while an arrow or throwing star sticks unconvincingly out of their eye and neck and or chest. you have got your beefy white guy or bodyguards in suits calling a ninja a son of a btch and throwing a roundhouse punch and only to get his ss handed to him. you have got a final confrontation between the good guy and the bad guy which goes on for 20 minutes and just sort of stops like a roadrunner cartoon instead of reaching a climax or a resolution. ninja 3 is a little different and in that the plot revolves around a scrappy female athletic type getting possessed by the bad ninja and so she ends up killing a lot of the cops and criminals and beefy white bodyguards in suits while under his spell. but all the other elements are there and as formal in their way as a kabuki play or a noh drama. i actually thought lucinda dickey was pretty likable in this film. she nicely muscled and curvy and has great cheekbones and some athletic ooomph to her movements and and you can actually suspend belief enough to accept that her character could do some of the feats she pulls off in the movie. she can almost and but not quite and carry this thing. one extra start for her participation and good energy. naturally and sho kusugi is in here and and he pretty much dominates the last 10 15 minutes of the movie. and just to show you how 3rd rate and uninspired g g movies are and the director and editor inter cut the last climactic fight between kosugi and the bad ninja scene with numerous reaction shots of dickey and her boyfriend watching the life and death battle with an expression of mild bemusement. i am serious. for all the emotion and reaction they show to the proceedings and they could be looking at a sea turtle in an aquarium at marineland. i can only imagine how dickey must have felt when she saw the finished product  she probably wanted to run the editor through with a katana for real because those reaction shots make her look like a complete idiot. an enjoyable waste of time. but it definitely is a waste of time. maybe if you are a sho kusugi fan and or even a linda dickey fan you would find it worth your while.
