"I don't think it's true that Joe has "little respect" for anything other than martial arts, so that puts me off, but the plot was intriguing. Definitely suffers from some common weaknesses of the time (why do these old movies have to make women so whiny? death noises so repetitive? enemies so hard, yet easy, to kill?), and most likely not watched because of its age, but I did like watching it (although only once). #family_friendly #action #romance #ninja #plottwist"
