American Ninja 2: The Confrontation, 1987 – ★★★½

Haven’t seen this one since it came out on home video.  I saw the original in the movie theatre.  I only remembered the general plot going in. Comparing it to the first it’s much more over the top and it is actually a bit more fun, but it feels less like a movie about ninjas and even more of a cheesy James Bond knock off with 80s action martial arts (ie. low key silly fun fights).  I would love to see this and the first remade with more modern style fighting.
