Console best movie i've ever seen.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

gavin6942 A young martial artist seeks revenge on the Ninja who kills his martial arts brothers and teacher. He finds help in the form of a new teacher (who knows Ninjitsu) and new brothers. Together the four pupils face the Five Element Ninja challenge: Wood, Earth, Gold, Water, and Fire.From retrospective reviews, AllMovie described the film as "a legend amongst fans of Asian cult fare and for once, the legend lives up to the hype." The review noted that the plot sticks to simple martial arts tropes, while noting that the "actual methods used are so off the wall that no fan will care" and that "the final twenty minutes is the kind of high-kicking bloodbath that is guaranteed to leave any fan of these films smiling and slackjawed. Thus, Five Element Ninjas is the kind of gloriously over-the-top blowout that every genre fan needs to see." Sure, we have that same shallow backdrop we have come to expect from Chang Cheh, and we can say this film is cheesy with all its camera tricks and explosive punches. Haven't we seen this a million times by now? But you know what, this may be among the best of its kind, at least since "Five Deadly Venoms". Ninjas wrapping a guy up in chains and making him explode? Oh yeah, that happens. This is a lot more than punches and kicks, and it seems more like something Troma or Cannon would do. I absolutely love it.

Bart Well, there are enough comments on this film already, so I will only say this. I saw the movie for the first time when I was a young lad, and now I am almost 30, and have yet to see a more violent action packed kung-fu movie than this one. BUT, YOU MUST FIND THE UN-CUT VERSION to really see this movie in it's true form. ALERT: THE US DVD VERSION IS CUT, YES FOLKS, CUT, SO BEWARE.

jangir99 'Superb'. 'Masterpiece'. 'King of Kung Fu'. These are just some of the superlatives used to describe this Film. Are we talking about the same film? This indeed is a 'Masterpiece'. A 'Masterpiece' in how not to make a Kung Fu film. Rubbish Actors, A Dire Plotline, Embarrassing Acting, Cringe infesting Fight Chorography and Wooden Props. So it has all the ingredients needed for a Cult Classic. You would be better of giving your hard earned £s to charity than Rent (or Buy) this time waster.

KoRnNut-2 I saw Super Ninjas years ago and it kicked butt. I especially loved the tree Ninjas and the Earth Ninjas that came out of the ground. They rule. The weapons were also cool. That other Doug guy should say where he got his copy. The best line in the movie is "Loss of a fight means loss of one's life to a samurai. Give it an action packed 10 out of 10.
