It's time for a Sam Firstenberg Cannon ninja movie. That means we get crazy gadgets, shirtless Steve James, and lots of ninjas running around in broad daylight.

I'm friends with Sam Firstenberg. One of the loveliest men to ever walk the Earth! He came to our bad movie festival in Spain as the Lifetime Achievement Award winner. We had a show that was a compilation of trailers and loose scenes. He laughed his way through the whole thing, but lost it in one scene in particular: "Oh my God, Toni, you have to tell me the name of this movie! It's so sh*t! I have to see it!" Then I told him the title, Cyborg Cop 2, and the name of the director: Sam Firstenberg. He nearly died laughing.

Thanks for reviewing on of my favorite movies from the 80's of all time. American Ninja was the movie that helped spur me into taking up martial arts and even when I watch this movie to this day it has a soft spot in my heart. When I was a kid it was just a badass movie and as an adult it just has enough entertainment and action with that touch of cheese that makes it still fun. Really love watching the reviews with you guys as you make the show feel like I get to be right there bantering along with the rest of you ( without you hearing me of course ). This one was a special watch for me, so thank you very much for that. Keep it up guys and I'll be there with you every step of the way.

@@JasonBrant I appreciate the effort - somebody tried their best. It takes a lot of chutzpah to dare to write a story, a book, a screenplay. Staring at a blank page or all white screen is daunting. And like Twain said fiction has to make sense which is damn hard to do. They did their best and hats off. Their best sucked, but they tried.

For that brief period in Western culture when everything ninja was the coolest. I "borrowed" my cousin's copy of this on VHS and rewatched it so many times that the tape was garbage in under 6 months. To a 10 year old me it was everything I needed in a film.

The guy who did the bike jump was the stunt coordinator, Steven Lambert. In an interview in the book "The Cannon Film Guide Volume II" he talks about the jump but doesn't mention anything going wrong, so I guess it wasn't as bad as it looks. He did say he was a novice at jumping motorcycles but had to do it because the Filipino guys he hired backed out at the last minute, so as the coordinator he felt he had to do it himself. He is also the guy who doubled the ninja in "Ninja III" during the helicopter scenes.

Interesting tidbit about this movie: Before training for this movie, Michael Dudikoff had no prior martial arts experience but went on to get a black belt in both Karate (I forget which style) and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. I have to say, for a guy with no prior training to this film, he seems to have taken to martial arts quite naturally. Thus is the badassitude of Michael Dudikoff I suppose. :D
