A very competent movie-liscensed game. All fans of platformers should pick it up.

When people hear the term "licensed software" they usually cringe. Although some games have had success like the Simpson's arcade game, and Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects, as well as countless Star Wars games. Many people's disposition towards movie/franchise based games are unpleasant at best. However i found this to be an immensely fun game. The game is a side-scrolling 2-D platformer that has somewhat of a Ninja
Gaiden look and feel to it.You can wall jump, and use many power-ups and weapons just like it. The game is quite difficult, and has no password system so if you do plan on playing through it make sure you have the time to do so. Also certain areas of the game are extremely painful to get through and you will find yourself replaying it over and over just to get the patterns down pat. It also has a lovely continue system that puts you back at the start of every stage, so don't worry too much about dying. The boss battles are far between, but very fun indeed.(also quite difficult) A game anyone with an NES should own. I must say, i was surprised it would be this much fun.
