Product Description
Buckle-up for a rollercoaster ride of fun action and comedy as martial artists rocky colt and tumtum foil a kidnapping plot at their favorite amusement park. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 04/24/2007 Starring: Hulk Hogan Jim Varney Run time: 94 minutes Rating: Pg
Amazon.com
An evil gang takes over an amusement park only to be foiled by three Ninja-trained brothers and a TV action star in this smartly paced (if by-the- numbers) kiddie action flick. Medusa (Loni Anderson) and Lothar (Jim Varney) head up the gang with ransom money and mayhem on their minds. But they don't count on the young Caucasian trio, taught by their inexplicably Asian grandfather, and Dave Dragon (Hulk Hogan), making a live appearance at the park. What follows is campy humor, lots of Karate-esque action and plenty of Home Alone-type boy vs. foolish bad guy high jinks. And girls aren't left out: the brothers' neighbor, a brainy techno girl, is on hand to hack into the computer to override the gang's murderous plans, while also providing 007-style gadgets for hand-to-hand combat. While there is plenty of gunplay in the 90- minute film, no one is killed or even significantly hurt, making it appropriate for ages 5 and older. --Kimberly Heinrichs

 3 Ninjas should have ended with Knuckle Up May 22, 2008
Believe the hype. This 4th installment is terrible. You know a movie is in trouble when the highlight of it is Jim Varney of Ernest fame.
Premise: A group of idiotic thugs lead by Medusa(Loni Anderson) and Lothar(Jim Varney) hold an amusement park filled with people hostage for a ransom of 50 million dollars from the owner of Mega Mountain. Colt, Rocky, Tum Tum and their newfound friend Jessica along with the help of Dave Dragon(Hulk Hogan) try to stop them.
Opinion: This is the worst installment to the 3 Ninjas series. I grew up on 3 Ninjas and when I saw this I sighed. The original kids are replaced with 3 annoying and ugly runts. The plot is so lame its laughable. Why would anybody hijack an amusement park when there is big money eleswhere? Jim Varney is surprisingly good as Lothar. Hulk Hogan is unsurprisingly terrible as Dave Dragon, the amusement park's stunt actor. Loni Anderson wins the ham of the year award hands down as Medusa. I mean, have you ever seen a cornier villian? At least the other 3 Ninja movies had credible villains. Medusa is a cheeseball and her henchmen are about as bright as Laurel & Hardy. And you people dissed Knuckle Up? At least Knuckle Up had its moments. High Noon At Mega Mountain had none. Unless you count it being unintentionally funny as a good thing. Stick with the first 3 movies of the 3 Ninjas series and pretend this one never existed.

If there's one thing I learned over the years, it's that marketing doesn't lie, and this trend continues with the SMASH HIT movie 3 NINJAS - HIGH NOON ON MEGA MOUNTAIN. Just as the box says, THE KIDS WILL LOVE IT! First off, just look at the cast!! HULK HOGAN, LONI ANDERSON, and JIM VARNEY all one one screen together? HOLY SMOKES!!!! I'm surprised they were able to get one of these NINJAS on screen much less ALL THREE IN THE SAME ACTION PACKED MOVIE!!!11 SOMEONE CALL IMAX!!!! However these NINJA masters were matched with a very talented director, Sean McNamara, who had recent successes with blockbusters like "THE LEGEND OF GALGAMETH". He really put this ALL STAR CAST through the paces and produced a movie that represents one of the best movies in the genre of NINJA movies, not to mention the CROWN JEWEL of their illustrious careers.
LONI ANDERSON playing MEDUSA made for a wonderful villain. Her continuing role as the NINJA master in hit series WKRP really translated well to the big screen, and I definitely would have been afraid to go to HIGH NOON ON MEGA MOUNTAIN if she had taken it over. I wasn't sure if HULK HOGAN was going to be up to saving MEGA MOUNTAIN or not with such a formidable opponent, but you'll have to get the movie yourself to see how it turns out.
If you're looking for one of the best NINJA movies ever with BONE CRUSHING ACTION, GLITZY MEGA STARS and HILARIOUS HIJINKS along the way, this is a movie the whole family will love. HEY MR AMAZON, WHY WON'T YOU LET ME GIVE THIS A 6/5 STARS??? As of this review there are only 4 in stock, so snatch this classic up WHILE YOU CAN!

GET READY TO BE BLOWN AWAY! First, you get non-stop, crotch-knockin', light-up-the-eyes ninja action! Throw HULK HOGUN into the mix! That's right, I said HULK HOGUN! Then, bring Ernest into the picture! And mix it all up at MEGA FLIPPIN' MOUNTAIN!! MEGA MOUNTAIN! I used to love to go to mega mountain as a kid, and now we have a 3 NINJAS movie right there! What more could you ask for? This movie was dangerous! They had guns, and they were taking over the park, but guess who saved the day? NOt only the 3 NINJAS, but HULK HOGUN! You couldn't possibly get anything better in a movie! I was scurred, but I knew everything would turn out right with THE 3 NINJAS AND DAVE DRAGON! Nobody in their right mind would EVER mess with Dave Dragon. You'll get your eyes lighted-up! Then Tum Tum will rock your crotch! Watch out! GET THIS MOVIE!!

I bought this film for a dollar with the intention of sending it to a friend who needed some "family" entertainment. Being a connoisseur of bad movies, though, my curiosity got the best of me and I had to preview it just to see Jim Varney as the villain, Lothar Zogg, which I admit is a great name. It is a sad day when Jim Varney is the best dramatic actor in a movie, even a kid's movie. (I would say this movie would be appropriate for ages six an up; the only violence is incessant karate.) This will definitely teach me not to watch kid's movies I bought as gifts.
Again, I repeat, Varney is by far the highlight of the film, although Hulk Hogan (as "Dave Dragon") tries his best to hang in there. The undisputed low point is Loni Anderson in a black leather outfit as the evil "Medusa." Her performance is not frightening, though her evident cosmetic surgery made me scream out loud.
The plot is that three kids, Colt, Rocky, and Tum Tum (really) learn to be ninjas from their grandpa, who uses a variety of teaching methods, most of which seem to involve toilet plungers. They defend Mega Mountain from terrorists led by the "Zogg and Medusa Moronic Criminals Corporation" (apparently) via endless action sequences and contrivances that James Bond wouldn't allow out of his tool shed, furnished by brainy techno-nerd, Amanda. Eventually the tension is resolved by the least believable plot device (hint: it involves compressed gases, a bomb, and a boat) in recent memory.
Watch especially for the scene with Jim Varney brandishing a saber, and the model helicopter ransom money interception collision ploy. I had thought of titling this review "Extortion on the Log Flume," but that really didn't convey the pain that this movie inflicts. In the end, though, I gave it two stars for a couple of reasons: first, the name Lothar Zogg really is a great villain name, and second, the movie is (after all) meant for kids, so I should give it some slack.
Although I revel in bad movies for their camp value, this one is probably good for young boys, and a chore worse than cleaning out the grease trap for just about everyone else.
