Private Joe Armstrong is a hard working loner, and the military doesn't like that. His own platoon hates him because he tried to protect the general's daughter from a ninja attack and members of the platoon were killed. They tell Joe he should have just let the ninjas steal the government property and next time he should just let the ninjas do what they want. When popular Corporal Curtis Jackson challenges Joe to a fight and is roundly beaten, Joe earns Jackson's respect and friendship. When they discover the ninjas have an inside man, they team up to save the general's daughter and put the ninjas out of business.
Michael Dudikoff is pretty wooden, but this is still one of the better 1980s ninja releases. I remember seeing this in the theater when it was released and it's still an enjoyable movie, although don't expect anything great from it.
