I have to state that I’m a movie buff and an Asian martial artist so my review might be a bit critical as evidenced by the lively teenagers who were gleefully shaking the cinema (”Ninja” is shown in Malaysian theaters instead of direct-to-dvd like in the US) seats as blood was splashing and heads were rolling. “Ninja” (2009) isn’t as hyped up as “Ninja Assassin” (2009), which came up as my first Google search when I had tried to ascertain what the movie was about after seeing its enigmatic cinema poster ad depicting a stereotypical ninja with the backdrop of New York city. So, I went into the cinema without much expectation.

The movie started out well enough with a quick historical overview of Ninjas in Japan followed by a beautiful take of a Japanese dojo showing martial artists performing their “kata” or set moves. As most of the actors were Japanese, it felt like a typical Japanese martial arts movie until the scene shifted to the hero of the series, played by Scott Adkins, who stuck out like a sore thumb (well, not if you think the Caucasian guy playing Goku in Dragonball Evolution fits the role). He was showing off his half naked sculptured body with lots of muscles. Nothing wrong here if you are a screaming fangirl (Like one of the group of teenagers beside me. Ahem!) but it definitely foretells the direction of the movie. It is one of those that glosses over the storyline in favor of shocking our visual senses. Indeed, it would be a fantastic treat of sights and sounds if only they didn’t make the heroine such a useless damsel in distress. She is the daughter of the grandmaster of the Ninja school and was depicted as being at almost the same skill-level as the hero at the beginning so it really gets super annoying after she has to be saved for the umpteen time.
