This is my forth copy of this one......I keep giving these away ,and getting another for myself......The younger Norris does a great gob in this film.......The fight scene at the end won some awards I guess........This is a keeper.

one of Chuck norris's best films has been given special edition treatment courtesy of Scorpion releasing
i am a big of Chuck's early films mainly Good guys wear black, A Force of one, Forced vengeance, An eye for an eye
one film i havn't seen yet was the Octagon,
i knew the only way to check the film out was to buy it
i wanted the blu-ray version cause i knew a HD transfer would look excellent for a very old film like this one
well apparently the blu-ray version of this classic film is out of print now, amazon.com are totally out of stock of the blu-ray
but the Scorpion DVD version is still available

being a DVD version i knew the picture quality would only be Digital remaster not a High Definition transfer
man was i amazed & surprised how Good the widescreen transfer looks on this DVD release
Scorpion releasing made a big effort to clean up the picture quality for sure
i must admit the new transfer does look excellent in 1:78:1 ratio
an extremely Good Digital remaster, very nice sharp & clear picture i was very impressed
the blu-ray version probably has an even better transfer but the blu-ray is out of print tragically
plus scorpion also add a brand new 5.

I like all Chuck Norris films from his earlier days.

Not an Academy Award Winner but I like the martial arts! Granted, his acting is a bit weak but what the heck, he has gotten better over the years!

Recommended for Chuck Norris fans!

Very good and enjoyable movie. I had seen this way back when I was a kid and remembered it well. Just recently watched it again and although the film moves like a video game and comes off as complete fantasy, I still never the less really enjoyed the Ninja-Martial Art themes and this one, along with "Silent Rage", "Return of the Dragon",and "Delta Force" I honestly consider to be one of Chuck Norris's absolute best action adventure movies. I had seen all of those movies as a kid and this "Ninja" one sticks out as being the most entertaining.

Real life Japanese fighter and martial arts expert Tadashi Yamashita had played the role of the leading villain.

The plot itself is pretty ridiculous & has no baring on reality; Chuck Norris is a Martial Arts athlete & I assume former Ninja fighter who runs into this clan of Terrorist Ninjas who try to assassinate his girlfriend, and later a few other people where Chuck then springs into action. The scene where he is with a woman in the house, that just happens to get attacked by Ninjas is fun, but sometimes almost laughable too. Chuck Norris has a personal beef with the leader of this death clan and after he infiltrates their command base, he has to fight a series of warriors in a "video game" like fashion until he finally squares off against the big boss man himself Yamashita.

In either case as a action adventure film I still think this is a good movie so I give it an A with two thumbs up. Age range I would say maybe 12 & above. This film sticks out because it has a fairly good presentation of Ninja Fighters vs other films like "Power Rangers" or "Ninja Turtles" which featured them in a fantasy kid setting.

I've always loved ninjitsu as a martial art and the movies too, this version of the octagon is really good very crisp visuals in hd....much better than standard definition dvd version of the movie.

I always like me some Chuck Norris, but he talks to himself (we hear his thoughts) throughout the film and it becomes aggravating after a while. The fights in the Octagon are good, but whomever came up with the device of us hearing Norris' thoughts shoud be shot. Scorpion Releasing does its regular excellent job of giving us the best possible presentation of the film in its original aspect ratio.

This movie comes at me a few different ways: When the action is happening, its a really good movie. When 'characters' (and I use the term loosely) are speaking, they utter some of the stiffest, most painful dialogue ever committed to celluloid. The little segments with the echoing 'whisper' are the worst; what was the point of the voice effect? 1980 movies don't have high-quality sountracks anyway, and this only serves to make it barely intelligible at times. There's many characters and plot threads brought up and dropped almost at random, and the acting is mediocre at best.

The only time it shines is the well-done martial arts sequences (many done with a minimum of cutting), which almost make it worth suffering through. The ending fight in particular is very nice, almost balletic in spots. A shame they couldn't have hired a screenwriter without a tin ear and possessing a sense of pace and structure.
