Ninja Assassin * * *


Well Well Well.......had they made it in 3D...many people would have chocked to death by those lethal star blades flying all around unless you were born with a special heart i.e. on the other side.When this director made the Matrix people bench marked the action element it had.And he is back demolishing his own records.This one has super outstanding action sequences that will create ripples of extremely high magnitude in your every damn part.And the blood just makes it doubly effective.

One of the things which you will notice and love about the movie is the fact that it has very few dialogues and those are absolutely apt and meaningful and concise and perfectly performed.The amazing thing about the direction is that in spite of having an action sequence every five minutes, we can totally feel the other things which are portrayed in parallel. Be it the love shared by the two teen ninjas.Be it the anger of Raizo for his master.Be it the situational one liners or be it the brilliant background score.Everything just adds up to give you a superb action mix way ahead in terms of any thing you can think of as compared to contemporary action flicks.

And also take it seriously when I say this, Ninja Assassin is not for the faint hearted.They have shown the blood,the bruises and the killing so explicitly that even Quentin Tarantino might get goosebumps and develop an inferiority complex. But its not all in vain.It totally goes with the movie and without the slaughter show it might have looked or felt dull.The story revolves around a rebel ninja (Raizo) who was trained as an assassin along with hundred other orphans.These assassin are then sent to different parts of the world as they kill for money and there is no stopping them.Raizo breaks free from his group and decides to fight back for his vengeance of lost love.The action pact plot moves at a breath taking pace and never lets you to drift away from the screen.So if you like action and if you are not allergic to blood, you have to and have to see this.You will not regret it.

Chao !

P.S. Even Richa liked it ! :P
