The Wachowskis, after their matrix success, tried to replicate the style of the ideas as well as some other elements of it, unfortunately they did not quite succeed. (and although this movie was produced only by and by them, it has all its fingerprints on it and no identity of its own that makes it relatively hard to enjoy the movie.) It's a shame I really like the title and I always wanted to see my movie with a different kind of hitman (2016 video game).At first it looks nice, but I wonder how much blood there is in a human body and I forget how hard human bones should be because I do not think you can cut a blade with it as if it were Paper. And if there are so many blood effects due to excessive violence then you should either overdo it for blood so it gets funny as with Quentin Tarantino or just enough blood to make it look dangerous but not so that the whole wall gets sucked in at the otherwise unrealistic and that is effective.I like the fact that the people want to try something new and would be against the Hollywood standard, you can already see from their unusual Kerstin ideas their sometimes questionable narrate structures or experiment all decisions in image editing.But with all the love for such courageous ideas I find it hard to think positively about the movie because I have disturbed these loads of esoteric pretty, these very stupid do not say because words speak very strong to the "Senci guinea pig" from Power Rangers Ninja Storm recalled the Kamps tendons that sometimes recall a hip-hop video from the early 2000's or the weird Ninja Academy better portrayed in 100 other films, including Power Rangers. I love material doctor movies because of their fight scene and training montages. At first and in some cases the last ones are all interesting and EPT deep the training methods he remembers torture is probably that was also the point of the film and on the whole it is not fun to watch.I do not even want to pick the educational stuff about the Asian culture or the myth of the ninjas, I'm sure every Wikipedia schicke will do a better job. Too fuzzy for a Marshall Doctor movie, too uninteresting for an action movie and too stupid for an educational film.However, there are two positive aspects that I want to mention: 1st: I like the cast when you see a lot of movies, then you start to notice that all the people in the movies look a bit alike or always embody the same people so it's interesting to see other people or people you do not see every one Day sees and movie actors look like their neighbors or people you could just meet on the street. 2nd: The stories, narration and the actual content as well as the places where most of the play is a successful change. Because a little bit different because unfortunately a lot of film and television is always tailored to the American market and for us Central Europeans is unbearable because it is always related to all these idioms customs and customs do not understand the people who never ride in America. Here we just have the same thing with China, I like it.
Impressive ninja movie. better then many other ninja movies . the main actor is not a kung fue artist but he really trained well before shooting for 6 months and its amazing . thanks
Need a part 2 now! Sho Kasugi is a legend in ninja movies of the 80's. So cool to see him still acting. Bring us more! The main actor ninja was awesome. The story was engaging. The fight scenes blew me away. Loved the gore. Loved the story. Don't make me wait another 20 years for a good ninja flick, make this one keep going. Not since Toshiro Mifune in Kirasawa films have I watched a character I want to keep following as much as Rain.
Trained since childhood to be a lethal killer, Raizo has since turned his back on the Ozunu clan that raised him and now seeks revenge for their heartless murders. Teaming up with Europol investigator Mika, Raizo steadily butchers his enemies while inching ever closer to the long-awaited bloody reunion with his former master. Ninja Assassin is a pretty over the top film and at times it makes zero sense but if you want to see a Ninja kill like 50 Ninjas you won't be disappointed also Sho Kosugi and Naomie Harris are in this film as well so you really don't wanna miss this movie. I'll give this film an 9 out of 10 from me.
