Ninja Assassin

Yes, may sisiraan ako ngayon. hehehehe Ah, siyempre quite late na etong review na to, pero ok lang, mas sulit kung sa download ko na lang siya panoorin.

I was able to watch this film last week, as usual free time sa Welcome at mahina pa ang tanda. Walang tao. Ang init. Naghanap ng trip. Mabuti na lang, dala ko ang zune ko at ayun, namili ng film na maiksi so after watching it, I can go home. May papalit naman sa kin sa shop.

Almost a waste of time. hehe

Better than Legion.

Story about a ninja who's just doing his mission, killing somebody for money then there is a dude, which is Raizo (Rain, the korean pop idol boy) who has some flashbacks how he became a deadly ninja. Actually, he did not do all the acting. Mahal siguro ang bayad. hehe Anyway, ah yes there is interpol agent, someone, a girl who has a hunch na there is a ninja organization who does all the great assasinations. She discovered it through money laundering, stories, dead agents then ayun may kasama siyang officer na muntikan na matanggal dahil sa kalokohan niya.

At the course of the movie, ayun si Raizo pala yun ninja that wants to disband the clan. Then he is a fugitive of the clan, tapos yun girl tries to help him to complete his mission. In the end, well patay ang clan, Raizo became free from whatever he wants to do.

What made this film not a waste of time is the action and gore. I don't know how Rain was able to train that good pero ang galing niya, except for some points, look down later. Action scenes like the jumping, the sword fighting, ninja moves and even yun shuriken throws. Astig. Lalo na yun part na pano tila tinodas yun mga sundalo. hehe

Ah yun first part, ok din. Medyo may twist ha. Kala ko si Rain yun pumapatay sa una, yun pala siya yun renegade ninja. Naks, may twist. hehe Yun japanese actor dun, magaling, parang nakita ko na siya in some yakuza films, pero sayang siya. hehe

Eto na.. why is it crap? First, come on, the film should be in japanese or basta parang japanese setting or more japanese actors. They should get Takeshi Kaneshiro for the lead, besides, medyo marunong siya ng English di ba. Kaso I don't know, or even Sora Aoi for their actress, kaso di siya marunong ng english. How about Ozawa? hahaha

I mean, come on, they should make that movie at least more japanese than others like korean or chinese. Kasi iba talaga, lalo na yun pride part, mas bagay pag hapon ang nagdeliver. Pag nakikita ko yun Rain saka yun kalaban niya, bagay sila sa kung fu movie. hehe

Story, is crap. I know there are some parts na pang drama pero sorry, di mo ko maloloko. Poor dialogue. hehe That's why, it's better to have this in japanese mood with subs than speaking in broken english. Oh crap. Kahit si Ken watanabe yun lead na contrabida, pero same cast, no way. I think pina kamahal ang bayad is Rain, kaunti lang yun parts niya kahit exhausting pero yun iba, sobrang di ko kilala. No clue. Yun sa una na todas, parang sa Oldboy pa galing. hehe

Ano pa, pero ok yun strategy nila ha. Nice trailer, great action sequences and well, like the dude says, he doesn't look like a killer to me, he's in a boy band.

Well, he's a leader in a boy band. hahaha

Great thing, I did not watch this for 150 bucks. Tama na ang legion. hehe

I can't believe Miko Halili used some quotes from this movie to describe a nba game. geesh. hehe
