The film is about three young brothers who learn martial arts from their Japanese grandfather. ==Plot== Every year, Samuel, Jeffrey and Michael Douglas visit their Japanese grandfather, Mori Tanaka at his cabin. Mori trains his grandchildren in the art of Ninjitsu of which he is a master. As the summer comes to an end, Mori gives each of them a new "ninja" name based on their personalities: Samuel, the oldest who is solid and cool under pressure is named 'Rocky'. Free spirited and wild, he gives Jeffrey the name 'Colt' based off the animal, The youngest Michael earns the name 'Tum-Tum' due to his energy beginning and ending with his tummy. Meanwhile; their father Sam Douglas, is an FBI agent who stages a sting operation to entrap Hugo Snyder in the sale of warheads. Snyder escapes the trap with the use of his own ninja henchmen. Checking out his money he received, he finds it was all blank cut sizes of paper shape like money. Sam Douglas catches Snyder on the roof but a helicopter appears out of nowhere piloted by ninjas and start firing at him and Snyder escapes on a rope ladder. On the second-to-last day of his grandsons' visit, Snyder decides to test Mori's fighting skill. The boys ignore Mori's orders to stay in the house and aid by defeating two ninjas on their own. Snyder threatens Mori's family if he doesn't get Douglas off his back and Mori chides the boys briefly for interfereing in his personal affairs. When they return home, they find their father with his partner Jerry and he is unenthusiastic to see what they had learned during their visit, and more annoyed at their new names. He leaves in a hurry and their mother comforts them. Emily, a friend of Rocky's, compliments his new name and agrees to ride with them to school the next day. Snyder develops a plan to kidnap the boys to use them as leverage to get Douglas to back off. Since the FBI watches them, his assistant Brown contacts his nephew Fester and his buddies Hammer and Marcus, in the midst of a convenience store robbery, to kidnap the boys and they agree. But due to Douglas and his FBI crew's presence, they are unable to capture them. The next day, Fester and his friends attempt to follow the boys to school, but are side-tracked by a fender bender with a police car. Emily becomes separated from the boys and encounters a group of bullies who steal her bike. Emily becomes upset with Rocky for showing off and walks to school alone. At recess, the boys challenge the bullies to a two-on-two basketball game and they spot the bullies nine out of ten points before effortlessly humiliating and defeating them, winning back Emily's favor. That night, Colt learns that Snyder, who they assumed was a friend of Mori's is actually the criminal their father is after and they begin to suspect Mori is involved in crime. They are left with a babysitter when Jessica leaves to pick up Sam and Fester and his friends break into the house with a fake pizza order, subduing the babysitter. A series of intricate household traps keep the bumbling would-be kidnappers off of them, and they use a device in Rocky's bed to call Emily over and use her as a hostage. Due to an earlier trap, Hammer and Marcus run to the bathrooms sick to their stomach as they have food poisoning and the boys (and mainly Emily) defeat the alone Fester. After freeing the babysitter though, they are overpowered by Brown and Snyder's bodyguard Rushmore, who were prompted to back up Fester and the others. Emily gives Jessica a note from Snyder claiming responsibility. Mori offers to sneak in alone to find the boys as not to raise the alarm to Snyder. The boys escape their captivity and after a series of fights through the ship, they come across Rushmore. Using a lesson they got on their last day and inspired by their grandfather who came to rescue them, they manage to subdue Rushmore and are reunited with Mori. Snyder confronts Mori and challenges him to a fight for the boys' freedom, but due to his youth and speed, Snyder almost proves too much for Mori, until he remembers a handful of Tum-Tum's jelly beans which Tum-Tum had given him for luck and uses them to gag Snyder. Mori gains the upperhand and knocks Snyder to the floor. Refusing defeat, Snyder grabs a gun from one of his subordinates, but is suddenly shot and subdued by Douglas who had arrived just in time. Sam later apologizes to Mori for underestimating him and gives him a hug before being advised from a pained Mori that a bow would work just fine. Sam then tells his partner Jerry to complete the paperwork of the night's events on his own as he has a whole family of heroes to take out for pizza which Mori detests, as he hates pizza. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「3 Ninjas (film)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
