AMERICAN NINJA Michael Dudikoff headlines this pairing of action flicks from the eighties and nineties. In PLATOON LEADER, West Point graduate Jeff Knight is dropped right into the leadership of a Vietnam platoon and goes from inexperienced by-the-book placeholder to battle-hardened leader in this gritty Cannon production. In SOLDIER BOYZ, retired major Howard Toliver is working as a California Youth Authority counselor when he is approached to retrieve an heiress whose UN supply plane was shot down over the Vietnamese jungle. He takes with him a group of juvenile lifers with nothing to lose and everything to gain.
