Ninja (2009)

I suppose Ninja suffers from the inevitable comparison to Ninja Assassin. But it would be more appropriate to compare it to Blood and Bone, released earlier this year. In case you don't know, Blood and Bone is an excellent low-budget action flick starring Michael Jai White, who co-starred with Scott Adkins in the awesome Undisputed II: Last man stading.

Ninja has a ridiculous story and nothing in the character development department. But of course that is to be expected in this kind of movie. I seriously doubt the new Ninja Assassin will have a better story and characters, anyway.

The action is pretty good, though. The fights are fast and furious and Scott Adkins delivers some amazing legwork. My favorite scene has him kicking the shit out of a bunch of evil cultists. Another highlight of the movie takes place on a train where our hero and heroine fight some scumbags in cramped quarters. Sadly, the final showdown is very much a letdown, too much fancy effects and not nearly enough martial arts.

Also, the villain has some sort of super ninja suit that allows him to do inhuman things. Maybe some people like this kind of fancy stuff but for me it just takes away the fun. I want hard-hitting action.

After all is said and done, Blood and Bone is a much better action film, though Ninja is still an entertaining watch on its own. Too bad there was no sex between Scott and Tsuyoshi Ihara, who is very cute. I would have loved to see how she fought in bed :D
