Ok so if you are going into this movie expecting a ninja movie, boy did you not watch the trailer or even read anything about it. However if you go into it expecting to see a lot of cheese, sexual innuendos, and many over the top lame jokes with some action you may just enjoy this.
Honestly, it is worth a watch. It will take you back to the parody movies of the 90's and early 2000's in that it really smacks at the action stars of the 80s and 90s. The story is ridiculous but funny enough that i did laugh quite a bit. This is not a movie to plan to watch if you are sober or have any common sense but if you have nothing to do, your date skipped out on you, John Cena becomes WWE champion again, or nothing left to lose... ehh... then give it a watch.

It's out with the old and in with the new
Goodbye clouds of gray, hello skies of blue
A dip in the pool, a trip to the spa
Endless days in my chaise, the whole world according to moi
(Excuse me? Thank you)

Although Dancing Ninja has some amusing moments ultimately it fails to make the grade. I don't think young Lucas Grabeel has a future in martial arts films.
Grabeel is a young man who was washed up from a shipwreck as a toddler and was raised by Asian parents in some unnamed Asian land. Trying to find out his origins he travels to America where people who look like him predominate as he is sure his destiny is there.
Part of his destiny is that he is convinced he is the prophesied Dancing Ninja who was said to be from a foreign land and Occidental.
What laughs there are in this film come from David Hasselhoff who's having a great old time spoofing Steven Segall. Wonder if Hasselhoff will run for governor of some state. Not like some action star hasn't run for governor before.

I genuinely never wanna see anything again after this i need bleach for my eyeballs
So I wanted to hate this movie. I expected too, but then something happened, I payed attention and turned my brain off and started to laugh.
This isn't Citizen Kane, it's more like Plan 9 from Outer Space. Yes! It's a funny bad movie.
It's about a White Ninja, who is a bit delusional. But has a destiny to be the..well the avenge his fathers....his masters....well there is a lot of things he has to do. The cliches are borrowed from Kung Fu films of the past and it works.
Highly recommended. Old school entertainment before the era of Woke!
9 out of 10!
