Featured review
The first Ninja film didn't impress me much, but this follow up is definitely an improvement. Ninja: Shadow of a Tear follows American ninja master Casey Bowman, who loses his wife and unborn child after a home invasion. Vowing revenge Casey breaks plenty of limbs and faces tracking down the killer to a drug factory in Burma... before discovering a horrifying secret....
Derivative revenge plot aside, this film was actually pretty good. Scott Adkins was convincing in this role, and some of the fight scenes were genuinely awesome. I also didn't see the final twist coming, which is always a plus. Story wise we have seen all this before, but to be honest nobody watches a film like this for the plot. It has it where it counts - non-stop brutal beatdowns and great fights. You will know if this is to your taste or not...
