Skip it. Ninja Assassin is a forgettable 2009 action flick that trades genuine thrills for overwrought CGI blood and brooding melodrama—it's the kind of revenge tale that mistakes darkness for depth. Unless you're specifically hunting for stylish ninja combat and don't mind a predictable, emotionally hollow plot, your time is better spent elsewhere.

Plot

Ninja Assassin follows Raizo, one of the deadliest assassins in the world. Taken from the streets as a child, he was transformed into a trained killer by the Ozunu Clan, a secret society whose very existence is considered a myth. But haunted by the merciless execution of his friend by the Clan, Raizo breaks free from them and vanishes. Now he waits, preparing to exact his revenge.

Director: James McTeigue
