Customer Reviews

A Chris Farley classic

The title is “Beverly Hills Ninja,” and part of the filming location is really in Beverly Hills. Some of the filming was done at The Hindu Temple - 1600 Las Virgenes, Calabasas, California, USA Joseph Campbell would be proud of this “coming of age” hero story. Haru (Chris Farley) is a ninja school dropout. He still maintains a positive attitude. He gets an opportunity to help Sally, a lady in distress (Nicollette Sheridan). His mission will eventually take him to the hills of Beverly. Sensei (Soon Tek Oh) is like a father to him. Sensei, realizing he cannot sway Haru from his mission, sends another ninja, Gobei (Robin Shou), who is Haru’s spiritual brother, to quietly help. On this mission, Haru, Gobei, and Sensei learn more about themselves.
