 The only way to bring down a ruthless gang is with 3 kids no more then 13 years old November 7, 2009
Sid the Elf (North Pole)
Well if you ever had any thought that Sid wasn't a well rounded movie watcher this should set the record straight. You may wonder why would you ever want to watch a 90's kid's movie like this? Well at the time of this release we were kids and remember seeing the original back in 1992. Even at the age of 11 in 92 the first film titled 3 Ninjas was viewed in hysterical laughter from the concept of these young kids doing any damage. So if there were laughs to be had then, imagine 17 years later with a third installment to the series. Naturally we didn't seek this one out as it was on t.v with a bored Sid looking for something to watch. Once we saw the first few minutes where these 5th graders take out a gang at a pizza place we knew it was worth the watch.
In 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up you have the three original characters Rocky, Colt, and Tum Tum (yeah even their names are intimidating) take on a wealthy yet dangerous businessman whose dumping toxic waste in the community. Being that the mayor and cops are juiced in there is no other option then sending the elementary school ninjas to shake things up. This one has more "what the F" moments then anything we've watched since Ninja Vengeance. It's filled with so many laughs from the thought of how dangerous these kids are. Not to mention all the 90's phrases like "Psyche," "Not, and "Radical" thrown around in hopes of gaining kids respect at the time. The best/most bizarre scene would be after a big fight, that included Ninja grandpa would looks like an overweight Mr. Miyagi, where the grandpa is getting message by all three kids while they all sit in the hot tub. We were waiting for Chris Hansen to come around the corner saying "How you doing tonight?"
So despite all the jokes that can be made about 3 Ninjas Knuckle up it was actually supremely entertaining. Not by conventional means, but by the way Sid always loves it in the category of "so bad it's good." For this one to be enjoyed you probably had to grow up around the time that it came out or else it will just be terrible. See for Sid this brings back great memories of being a young kid with no responsibilities outside of doing Mrs. Anderson's (old people) homework. Even if you aren't in the same age range you may still get some great laughs just from the movie's unreal b premise and action. It's just hilariously bad in every sense. The fight scenes will leave you speechless in the best way you could ever imagine.

There were no problems with the dvd at all. I am satisfied with my purchase.
 This movie is bad. August 7, 2007

And embarrassing. It's not a total loss, no because it can be entertaining...but only once in a while. Sure, the kids will probably like it , and even worse, try to imitate it but really, if you're not 6, 7 or younger, I wouldn't waste your time. That's what this was - a BIG waste of time.
And it's so over exaggerated...Ugh.
Not recommended.
 not quite as good as the first but still entertaining June 23, 2006

Before I start reviewing the movie itself, I feel it is important to note that the first 3 Ninja movies were released out of order. 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up was in fact shot back to back with the original which also had the original three actors from the first movie. Both 3 Ninjas and Knuckle Up came out in 1992 but for some reason Knuckle Up did not get released to the public until a year after 3 Ninjas Kick Back(1994-1995). So what I'm saying is that 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up is in fact the second of the original 3 Ninjas trilogy. Moving on to the movie itself, Knuckle Up takes place the next summer after the first movie. Rocky, Colt, and Tum-Tum help defend the land of Native Americans from a greedy land lord and his goons. This movie while good did not make it to the theaters even though it has the three kid actors and the same grandfather actor from the first 3 Ninjas. I'll admit that it was a bit weak with over-the-top humor from time to time but the large amount of action/fight scenes make up for it. Still, if you are a fan of the original 3 Ninjas trilogy like myself then you will pretty much find Knuckle Up to be worthwhile. Like the first 3 Ninjas, the DVD has no bonus features to offer.
 this is sucked June 3, 2006

I thought it was dumb and so did everyone I know. The fighting was not realistic and the acting was horribel.
