Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

LEOPARD FIST NINJA is one of the least entertaining of the many Godfrey Ho-made cut-and-paste ninja movies of the 1980s. That's because it pre-dates the craze and doesn't actually have any ninjas, although some masked fighters feature in a single scene. Otherwise, it's a straight kung fu thriller with unrecognisable actors and very little in the way of decent fight scenes; a bargain basement production through and through.

I'm a collector of Godfrey Ho and Joseph Lai films, and was quite disappointed that this movie was not a typical "cut & paste" movie with caucasian Ninja's in headbands, with bad special effects.Nope, this is just a kung fu movie about 2 brothers that lose their family and get adopted by a family friend. This man teaches the 2 brothers kung fu, and sends them away from the land, far away to hone their skills. 20 years later the old man that raised them summons them back, to help protect their 'family' from invaders that are taking everyones livelihood.There is one scene where they fight 'masked' men, which resemble Ninja's, but this movie is clearly BEFORE the Godfrey Ho Joseph Lai ninja craze that hit in the mid 1980's.This movie is NOT bad. it holds its own, and there are a few scenes with good/cheesy music.But if you are a collector of "cut & paste" type Ninja movies with Richard Harrison and the likes, this is not one of them.

I really can not agree with any of the others, who has commented this film. It is not a good movie, I'd rather say it is really bad. The editing is confusing. The acting is poor and the filming may be the worst I have ever witnessed. Except from that, It got some OK fight scenes, with out doing much impression. This may be one of the worst movies I have ever seen, if we look at the technical aspect of it. But it is really funny, because it is so bad. I will say it is worth a watch, if you are after a badly dubbed kung fu movie, with bad acting and terrible filming, that really makes you laugh. It was totally worth the 3£ I payed for it...(sorry my bad spelling and grammar)

This one should have remained in obscurity, and indeed for most people it hopefully will, just because of its badness. Unfortunately this is not "so bad that it's actually funny", this is more like so bad it actually hurts.Avoid at all cost...
