It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
This film will appeal to many of my generation, who I prefer to think of as the VHS generation. Back in those days we used to watch lots of B Movies, the Cannon films in particular being a favourite and popular choice. We had lots of choice, but the Martial Arts movies were highly popular, with the Ninja genre being a niche. This was before TV turtles and CGI special effects, so it had a kind of orietal mystique about it, but really we just loved their violent tendencies.This film is simply a throwback to the time & genre which sadly seemed to have completely disappeared from Western film schedules. To my absolute joy, Sho Kusugi was even in this move, the godfather of Ninja movies for us in the west!We have here an updated storyline film, with CGI blood and things like that, but really keeps the highly violent action there, and we have fun but still ridculous action. It's all as brilliantly ridiculous as ever.However, the stories are still as unbelievable as ever, they're never going to win any awards. You'll probably only watch this once, but the Cannon Ninja movies always were throwaway fodder. Kids have a watch of this. You'll find out what your dad's generation really were watching all these years back. More violent than turtles and loads of fun like Statham films!
No spoilers in this review.This is a must see! If you've seen Naked Weapon, as this reminds me very much of a similar story. But this one is original just like Naked Weapon is, and I highly recommend it for all Asian martial art fans.It has the quality of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and the continuation called House of Flying Daggers, and it reminds of the old school video game for Super Nintendo called Mortal Combat (fighting game) if you're also from the 80's! Enjoy this! As much as I did, I hope!See this if you liked movies like: The Raid, Hidden Dragon (Jet li), Kill Bill Volume 1 & 2, and any other movies based around martial arts combat with blades. This movie is even up to par to the Blade trilogy if you liked the Ju jitsu that Wesley Snipes used in his films.
I think this film is the most truthful and real, which tells of a ninja, such as they might be, if survived to the present day, the film becomes clear that Tae Kwon Do and "Parkour", has more in common CO lifestyle and survival of a ninja than invented by any clear who Still Ninjutsu, which in turn is different from the color of "Jiujitsu" only form of training, and in general it is so clear that the purpose of "Jiujitsu" defeat, neutralize the enemy, in turn, the purpose of the ninja quietly and quickly kill your opponent, and then disappear ... I think the Ninja themselves would be very happy with this movie, if you could talk.
Raizo (Rain) is a ninja assassin trained since childhood. He has since rejected the clan-centric organization that dismisses individuality. Europol agent Mika Coretti (Naomie Harris) has a theory about ninjas doing assassinations and her boss Ryan Maslow (Ben Miles) is reluctant to believe her. The clan has become killers for hire.There is a lot of slice and dice action. It's filmed well but that is the only worthwhile thing in this movie. The plot is nothing. Rain is a Korean popstar who has learned from the Keanu Reeves school of acting. Naomie Harris is nothing special. There is no chemistry and limited showcase for any acting abilities. By the last act, even the slice and dice action gets boring.
