While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

Untrealistic fights scenes, "our guy" may be cut on sushi pieces but still running, fighting and obviously flying. But the force is with him. Since other ninjas are untrained and with two left hands. Too much blood and pretty asian faces, not enough story and ideas. Btw how they tried to kill the chick because she had clues about them, but they ran free infront of people at street, and the whole fking city saw them?As I said, idiotic movie.

Going back to the old days of the 80's films, Enter the Ninja, Revenge of the Ninja, etc... this is a updated take on the phenomenon. The lead In the film is Raizo, played brilliantly by Rain ( who subsequently is NOT a martial artist, but a singer). The story is well laid out and moves at a decent pace so the viewer does not get lost or bored. The stunts and choreography are exceptional throughout the entire film. A fantastic action/suspense and somewhat fantasy film, definitely not for kids but for the martial arts and action enthusiast. Do not go into this film with ANY expectations as I did and you will walk away very pleased. I give this a solid 8 out of 10, just for the fight sequences alone.

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.

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.
