Somewhere in New Jersey, a group of masked rollerblading children "save the universe" by training to fight the evil Cobra Khan through a series of action-packed montages. Along the way they hypothesize some slapstick hijinks in a balloon factory, and save the day through a hypothetical Sonic Virtual Reality battle. A real treat!

This movie makes the 3 Ninja's movies seem like the Lord of the Rings trilogy.There is literally nothing done right in this movie. The acting is so amateur. The sounds affects are super cartoony but not in a good way. A good third of this movie is full of lame training montages. Id try and explain the plot but I got lost while watching it. There is absolutely no back story with any of the characters so you couldn't care one bit about anybody.I can't imagine another movie quite like this. It definitely has to be considered one of the worst movies ever. It seems like they shot it all in one day.Bottom line is if your not a fan of bad movies then stay as far away as you can from this garbage. However if you do like really bad movies there is a few scenes that will have you laughing. A scene where a lady chases a coupon for 2 minutes is pretty funny how dumb it is.
I've been on a "so-bad-it's-good" movie kick lately. And this is the worst. Within 2 minutes of the movie, I noticed the movie had the worst acting, the worst writing, and awful directing.The movie is about a few kids who can't act, who fight crime. And they suck at it.The cast and crew could not be less enthusiastic about the movie. There's a twist ending in the movie. And the actor could not care at all.A lot of people watch movies on the Bottom 100 looking to be entertained by the stupidity of the movie.You will not find that here.But, if you want to torture yourself with it. It's available free on YouTube
There are low budget/direct to video movies, and then there is trash like this.Trying to follow the plot of this film can actually hurt at time with the amount of thinking that was required to follow what was going on. Was there a Cobra Khan or was he just part of the kids imagination of the white ninja. Was the white ninjas back story based on a comic or were the kids just dreaming it. What was the deal with that scene with the clown fight and the balloons. Why were they bouncing on balloons for 15 minutes?! Also the kids were trained by a Van Damn wannabe who while solidly built lacked any acting talent. Also the box art, why couldn't the box designers at least pick an honest one to give the audience an idea how ugly the costumes were which looked like was made of cheap pieces of costume purchased in Chinatown.Acting was poor at best. It was fairly obvious by the end of the film that the kids could not do any of there own stunts which was probably why the stunt kids wore the awful costumes.The film at times seemed like a bad live action cartoon. This film goes so far as to hit clichés such as fishing rods and bait to lure the one kid's mom , following the kids by hiding in a trash can.There were also subtle problems such as some of the film was not properly edited to make it feel like it fit in the movie as the lighting was off and it seemed the purpose of it was to purely drag the film on.The film director insists that to allow the film to be acceptable by foreign markets he had to put in work out scenes which could be misconstrued as intentionally trying to torture the viewers.But the worst torture by far was saved for last in the form of the "Virtual Reality fight" which consisted of random fighters fighting sped up using such weapons as silly string. I honestly question the mental health of the writers and seriously wonder if some of them were on drugs when I watch this scene, it makes me cry every time cause it hurts so very much.My advice, do not watch this movie ever, unless you go in wanting to be subjected to the worst kinds of mental torture a film can present you with. There is nothing to laugh at in the film's intended humor. Not even the mistakes are funny most of the time. You might get out a few guilty laughs at some of the dumber moments, granted they might just be a response triggered by the brain cells this film kills at speeds higher then grain alcohol.
My favorite scene is the one where the White Dragon fights one of Cobra Khan's minions in a carnival building. Also, when Gary Daniels tries to woo the woman in the blue spandex, the outpourings of poetry from his mouth makes me wish it was I that he was speaking to. I once saw a movie called "Manos: The Hands of Fate," and thought it was pretty good. After I saw "Pocket Ninjas," I realized that "pretty good" was just not good enough. I have no wish to turn this review into a panegyric or paean to the beauty and incomprehensible, stunning visual conceptualization of this cinematic masterpiece, but truly, you need to see this if you are ever going to consider yourself a true connoisseur of film. Mmm. I think I'm going to slide it into my DVD player right now. . .
