About The Film : The Tongan Ninja follows the lead character Sione Finau and his arch nemesis Marvin. The film begins with a young Sione (played by Charley Murphy) and Marvin in a plane, which is being flown by Sione’s father. Marvin damages the plane and it crashes on an island. Sione’s father dies on the island (a funny death scene!) and Sione and Marvin end up in a training camp for ninja’s – which is conveniently based on the island they crashed on.
