American Fighter 2 – Der Auftrag: Directed by Sam Firstenberg. With Michael Dudikoff, Steve James, Larry Poindexter, Gary Conway. On a remote Caribbean island, Army Ranger Joe Armstrong investigates the disappearance of several marines, which leads him to The Lion, a super-criminal who has kidnapped a local scientist and mass-produced an army of mutant Ninja warriors.

“American Ninja 2: Ninjas in Paradise–I canu0026#39;t quite endorse it as much as the original. Itu0026#39;s still a solid bit of fun though. The American Ninja films are notorious for movie mistakes, but this one takes the cake. Michael Dudikoff is onscreen aside Steve James as they meet the C.O. of the base, then cut to behind as they leave the room and itu0026#39;s a completely different dude. Itu0026#39;s not Dudikoff at all!! Itu0026#39;s the most blatantly obvious goof Iu0026#39;ve ever seen. But it also made me laugh out loud so they score points there. Other mistakes include rubber swords, dead guys that get up and continue fighting, and guys that are supposedly stabbed in the stomach but are really just holding the sword to their side. No matter how dumb the director may be, Michael Dudikoff and Steve James still kick ass and thatu0026#39;s what the first two movies are all about. American Ninja 2, or Episode II as I like to call it, is about Joe Armstrongu0026#39;s encounter with genetically enhanced clones. Hum…sound familiar? Ninjas basically are Jedis, right? I could be wrong, but then again maybe George Lucas owes a bit of credibility to the genius behind American Ninja 2: The Confrontation. Dudikoff isnu0026#39;t in the third film so you can skip it; after all, he IS the American Ninja.”
