Despite failing to impress critics,3 Ninjasended up making its way to thetop of the box officein 1992.

You’d think a movie with giant kung-fu kangaroos would be more memorable.

Its safe to say that3 Ninjaswasbottled catharsis.

The movie also managed to combine fantasy and accessibility in a way that drew its target audience in.

Lets not forget the three kids who constantly defeat actual criminals using high kicks and homemade traps.

In all the chaos, people managed to latch on to the charm.

In one scene, the boys would be riding bikes and dodging bullies at school.

Viewers were too busy roundhouse kickingtheir bulliesin their minds.
