3 Ninjas is a 1992 American martial arts comedy film directed by Jon Turteltaub and starring Victor Wong, Michael Treanor, Max Elliott Slade and Chad Power.

Meanwhile, the boys' father, Sam Douglas, is an FBI agent who stages a sting operation to entrap a master criminal named Hugo Snyder in the sale of warheads.

Snyder's consigliere Nigel Brown contacts his irresponsible nephew Fester, a petty criminal surf punk, as well as his buddies Hammer and Marcus, to kidnap the brothers, but their plans are put on hold due to the FBI's presence.

Despite the bullies' dirty tactics, the brothers score ten consecutive points and win back Emily's bike.

Believing it to be a home invasion, the brothers suit up in their ninja gi's and fight back using their surroundings and numerous household items.

Additionally, in the international version the boys lose the basketball challenge and their bikes, so the film ends with a scene in which Rocky fights one of the bullies to get them back.

The site's consensus reads: "3 Ninjas might be exciting enough for younger action enthusiasts, but they deserve better -- and there's no shortage of superior options to choose from".
