Thunder Kids 2: Wonderful Mission (1990) User Reviews

Ridiculous

[Leofwine_draca · 4/10 · 31 October 2019]

WONDERFUL MISSION is another entry in the ridiculous cut and paste franchise from the IFD Film & Arts studio. Don't go in expecting much in the way of sense, although at least there's entertainment value here from the bad dubbing and silly fight scenes. The fighting kid in this one appears to be a different kid to the one seen in another in the series I watched. As usual, there's very little in the way of sense, but lots in the way of action, so it's a little better than some of the studio's other cut-and-paste features.

the burter?

Could have been filmed in 1990 or 1980 or even 1970. There's no relation to anything from any of those decades visible to me. The dubbing is wonderfully absurd. Everyone calls the buddha "the booder" or something like that?? Basically, it's just a really crappy kung fu flick with some ninjas thrown in here and there. The other THUNDER NINJA KIDS movie I've seen, THE HUNT FOR THE DEVIL BOXER, at least has some horror elements thrown into it with those hopping vampires and all that silliness. This one doesn't even have that to amuse you. Joseph Lai produces, Godfrey Ho directs under the name Charles Lee. The kings of splicing movies together and ending up with a mess. 2 names you never hear involved in anything good. Great movie to put on if you need to take a nap.

Pure Comic Gold!!!

This film was absolutely Ed Wood esquire! The historical mistakes! The abrupt cuts! The Hilariouly bad dialogue! What was with the voice of that kid? He sounded like a dying elf? And what about the stupidly abrupt ending... I wanted to rip off those stupid rugby helmets! Why a 10/10 you ask? This is the funniest film I have ever seen! HAHAHAHAHALOLHAHAJHA!!... the bhudda... My favourite character was the master of the White Guys, first he doesn't leave with them for no particular reason, then at the VERY end of the film he reappears. He's so creepy and so not a ninja master like! The plot revolves around 3 different clans searching for a golden budda. Some random kid follows them and acts like a comic hero... I guess... Do I sense like a Hidden Fortress, Yojimbo reference here? I wouldn't expect the director to be that smart. HAhahahaha! I didn't understand the Thunder Kids aspect, who were these random kids? (who talk like elves from hell). You know it says a lot that I found this DVD at a dollar store!! However, it greatly made my day...
