First off, Tongan Ninja is not merely a chop-socky spoof movie, its really not. In the same way Monty Python and the Holy Grail is not simply a period drama spoof.
Its an amusing journey through some top drawer eccentric comedy that if you see it for what it really is, you will enjoy the movies brand of humour. Im not saying that you either get it or you don't, merely that the more open you are to Tongan's brand of mirth, the more you get out of it.
Anyone can make an unintentionally crap movie, hell its even easy to make an crap movie unintentionally funny (See Fire over Afghanistan for reference) but it takes some superb directing and writing to make a movie that skirts the line of comedy genius and total crap with a double back flip, kick to the throat.
Thoroughly enjoyed, regularly quoted and fondly remembered. All the hallmarks of a quality movie in my book!
