Ninja Assassin Audience Reviews

VividSimon Simply Perfect
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Plustown A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
MellowStello Completely underrated action masterpiece. Certainly not for the faint of heart... hehe. Blood and guts everywhere! Totally badass. RESPECT THE NINJA!>.<
torstensonjohn 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.
curuense There is so much blood that you can not see very well about the story in general. There are no nuances, but viscera exploding on the screen. The scenes in which there is a beating in children, in which the master clearly strikes the childhood of orphaned children, are revolting. Only for those with a strong stomach.
Python Hyena Ninja Assassin (2009): Dir: James McTeigue / Cast: Rain, Naomie Harris, Ben Miles, Rick Yune, Sung Kang: Here is another celebration of mindless violence done with style and with as much blood shed as possible. Title can reference either ninjas as a dominant predator or as the clan for which Rain seeks revenge upon. He is orphaned and raised as a ninja assassin until his lady love is slain for betrayal. Central plot regards his assisting European agents in bringing down those responsible for political murders. This all goes predictably in the direction of kicking the sh*t out of as many people in record time. Director James McTeigue shoots masterful martial arts action but the screenplay is made up of pieces of many other martial arts film that are about as stupid as this one. It is exploitation of violence without any shred of empathy for the characters. Rain is given good background until reduced to extremely graphic confrontations. Naomie Harris and Ben Miles play agents that get reduced to props. Rick Yune plays Rain's stereotypical teacher who meets violent ends, but not before the audience has suffered. No, Yune met his end the moment he agreed to do this tripe. If you have the desire to sit through endless amounts of extreme violence then this garbage shoot suit your taste, otherwise it should be met with several blows of a machete. Score: 3 / 10
