How to Become a Ninja

About This Movie

So, 'How to Become a Ninja'—it’s a curious piece, really. It’s not your typical documentary. I mean, it’s Ron D. White, who’s a karate guy, trying to give us the lowdown on ninja skills. The pacing is a bit uneven; it goes from serious training tips to these almost absurd demonstrations. The atmosphere? A blend of earnestness and a bit of camp, which makes it oddly charming. You’ll find some practical effects as Ron showcases some moves and techniques that range from interesting to laugh-out-loud. There’s a rawness to the performances that feel very authentic, even if it’s not what you’d expect from a ninja documentary. Definitely stands out in the genre for its unique take and execution.
