Beverly Hills Ninja (1996)

Weak martial arts comedy. Chris Farley is an abandoned baby found by an oriental ninja colony. They bring him up as one of their own, but he proves to be an inept and rather plump student, whom they call Haru.

Sent on a mission to expose a gang in Beverly Hills, he is allocated a minder, Gobei (Robin Shou). In a restaurant where Haru is posing as a cook, Gobei is sitting at a table disguised as a woman in a red suit. When the fighting starts, Gobei joins in and we know for sure it's him. An interesting twist is that during the fight, one of the gang pulls Gobei's wig off ... and is startled to discover that Gobei's natural hair underneath is almost as long.
