IslandGuru Who payed the critics

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Jenna Walter The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Petia Vladimirova 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.

steeltoebiker 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.

luke-a-mcgowan 1. A movie called Ninja Assassin shouldn't try so hard. The first scene shows such promise that this will be a fun, bloody, cheesy movie about Ninjas who cut people to pieces. Unfortunately, it instead comes off as a Kill Bill ripoff with characters we don't care even a little bit about.2. Naomie Harris is cute but every time she's on screen the ninjas aren't. You can pretty much turn this movie on halfway through with the knowledge that she's got a hit out on her for investigating ninjas.3. There's some cool fight scenes, but a lot of the time I found the effects cheap, like darting the camera around the room with whoosh sound effects. 4. All of the characters in the movie should be wearing T-Shirts that read "childhood love interest who will die" or "former comrade who is more loyal to the cause". Its obvious what everyone's role in the movie will be.5. Some of the editing in fight scenes made me nauseous. It's like there were ten cameramen watching the fight and all of them were doing star jumps while the director cut between them every three seconds.6. There's at least two shots that make you go "Oh, this was a 3D release wasn't it". You know the ones - the ones that they'd try to impress you with in like 2002.7. The battle where the special forces arrive and gun down the ninjas en masse is unintentionally hilarious. When it happened in The Last Samurai, there was a sense of tragedy in it. Here it just comes across as funny as the stupid ninjas try to scurry over the roofs. Also, it detracts from the invincible reputation you've been trying to give them.8. The screenplay is a turd because it hilariously tries to be a film. My favourite line of the screenplay goes along the lines of: "So will you be leaving Germany soon?" "Soon death takes us all."9. Ninja abilities of super-healing are kinda brushed over and important to the story but at the same time not. Next time, go Bruce Willis-route and inflict lots of non-debilitating damage so at least we don't find ourselves asking "what happened to your intestines hanging out of your chest?"10. Still better explained than Drive though.

Denis Rohlinsky 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.
