Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops

Pure action film that is all!

Zombie purists will not like this film. Actually they"ll hate it as you see with the previous comments. If you like a movie with lots of gun shootouts and martial arts action through out than this movie is for you.

The action is done very well with tonnes of energy in them. The film definitely lives up to its title! The FX are really good and the zombie eyes are done well.

The biggest let down was the acting cause its not great at all but what do you expect with a movie called Zombie Ninjas vs Black ops. Overall a good fun action flick with an OK story and excellent action sequences. Worth a watch for the intense action.

What I envisioned, and what the filmaker probably envisioned from a title like Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops was way more awesome than this film had the budget to create. It was nothing at all like what's depicted on the cover.

They needed more dudes, more pyrotechniques, and a lot less dialogue.

On the other hand, it was clearly a labour of love made by a small group of people on very little money, and I did watch the whole thing.

While its performance's won't be studied by aspiring actors and it's unlikely to feature at next year's Academy Awards, with a title like Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops these were never really goals for this low budget privately financed Australian effort and at the end of the day, Rody Claude's film delivers on its title promise.

Showing aspiring filmmakers that all it takes is some determination and willingness to follow your dreams, Claude and his willing cast and crew have crafted a fun and in many ways original zombie tale that doesn't rely on endless blood spraying zombie kills or one liners to get it through the hordes of undead and in reality Zombie Ninja's doesn't even really have zombies in it, a fact that ear marks it as something more original than many other recent undead movie entries.

The "zombies" here are more like red eyed one man armies, ninjas chopping and fly kicking their way through the unsuspecting contingent of human survivors and it's here that Claude delivers the films best scenes.

The action that takes place through Zombie Ninjas; it must be said, this is an action film over a horror film so those wanting to get their scares on will be disappointed, is of the highest order and there's a frenetic and energetic nature to what takes place when the hits start flying. With the zombie ninja warriors led by UFC fighter Soa 'The Hulk' Palelei. Claude and his stunt team really get things moving and it helps overcome the films less proficient elements.

The films script work and acting leaves much to be desired here and while films of this nature aren't won or lost on this alone, delivery in Zombie Ninjas sometimes remains far too flat to engage and some of the performances here are barely above High School production level. It wouldn't have taken much for a performer here to take hold of the situation and carry the team but not one of human team nails a home run.

Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops is a fun and in many ways original Australian production that's worth tracking down. With the potential for this idea to grow into the future we can only hope that Claude and his team can match their skills behind camera with people's skill in front of camera and then we'll be treated to what could well be an Australian cult classic.

3 unfortunate office cleaners out of 5

Granted, with a title such as "Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops", I must admit that my expectations to the movie were slim to none. Needless to say that I hadn't even heard about this 2015 movie prior to now in 2021 when I sat down to watch it.

Right from the very start, this movie had cards stacked against it. I mean, that sound they opted for having the zombie ninjas making was just laughably bad. Even a lion would tremble if it heard that sound. So yeah, the movie was definitely not off to a great start.

And believe you me, it didn't get better as the movie trotted on. The storyline and script in the movie was just rubbish. But then again, I hadn't really put my hopes up for much from the movie. I had hoped though, on some level, that the movie would be so awkward and goofy that it would be fun to watch. But "Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops" wasn't one such movie; nay, it was just a downright bad movie.

Sure, the production level was fairly good for a movie of this type, and they definitely seemed to know what they were aiming for. But the movie concept just didn't work out for me, not even in the least bit.

I am sure that there is an audience out there for a movie such as the 2015 "Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops", I just wasn't in that particular audience.

My rating of "Zombie Ninjas vs Black Ops" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

My quick rating 2,1/10. Bad acting, bad fight scenes, no zombies, no horror elements. No entertainment. The fights are terrible minus the one guy who apparently is in the UFC as the head "zombie" but you wouldn't know it aside from landing a few knee lifts. Don't bother, there was no plot, the other zombie ninjas just kicked around for no reason and the good guys were pathetic. I am all for a martial arts school of young adults pooling there money together to make a film which is what this mess had to be but at least give us some semblance of a plot. I get the flashbacks of "his happened, that happened" but when they don't explain anything?
