Take out all the scenes with blood and grunting and you will probably get about twenty minutes of pointless dialogue. In other words, if your into over the top CGI cartoonish blood spraying everywhere with hardly no plot or storyline you will enjoy this senseless violent circus of blood.

The Wachowskis, after their matrix success, tried to replicate the style of the ideas as well as some other elements of it, unfortunately they did not quite succeed. (and although this movie was produced only by and by them, it has all its fingerprints on it and no identity of its own that makes it relatively hard to enjoy the movie.) It's a shame I really like the title and I always wanted to see my movie with a different kind of hitman (2016 video game).At first it looks nice, but I wonder how much blood there is in a human body and I forget how hard human bones should be because I do not think you can cut a blade with it as if it were Paper. And if there are so many blood effects due to excessive violence then you should either overdo it for blood so it gets funny as with Quentin Tarantino or just enough blood to make it look dangerous but not so that the whole wall gets sucked in at the otherwise unrealistic and that is effective.I like the fact that the people want to try something new and would be against the Hollywood standard, you can already see from their unusual Kerstin ideas their sometimes questionable narrate structures or experiment all decisions in image editing.But with all the love for such courageous ideas I find it hard to think positively about the movie because I have disturbed these loads of esoteric pretty, these very stupid do not say because words speak very strong to the "Senci guinea pig" from Power Rangers Ninja Storm recalled the Kamps tendons that sometimes recall a hip-hop video from the early 2000's or the weird Ninja Academy better portrayed in 100 other films, including Power Rangers. I love material doctor movies because of their fight scene and training montages. At first and in some cases the last ones are all interesting and EPT deep the training methods he remembers torture is probably that was also the point of the film and on the whole it is not fun to watch.I do not even want to pick the educational stuff about the Asian culture or the myth of the ninjas, I'm sure every Wikipedia schicke will do a better job. Too fuzzy for a Marshall Doctor movie, too uninteresting for an action movie and too stupid for an educational film.However, there are two positive aspects that I want to mention: 1st: I like the cast when you see a lot of movies, then you start to notice that all the people in the movies look a bit alike or always embody the same people so it's interesting to see other people or people you do not see every one Day sees and movie actors look like their neighbors or people you could just meet on the street. 2nd: The stories, narration and the actual content as well as the places where most of the play is a successful change. Because a little bit different because unfortunately a lot of film and television is always tailored to the American market and for us Central Europeans is unbearable because it is always related to all these idioms customs and customs do not understand the people who never ride in America. Here we just have the same thing with China, I like it.

V for Vendetta director James McTeigue re-teams with that film's producers Larry and Andy Wachowski for this action-packed tale of a skilled assassin who was trained by a mythical secret society, and patiently awaits the day he will avenge the death of his best friend. Swept off the streets as a young boy, Raizo (Korean pop star Rain) is transformed into an unstoppable killing machine by a secret society known as the Ozunu Clan. The Ozunu Clan is so proficient at keeping their existence a secret that most people think they are only a myth, but the moment Ozuno assassins kill Raizo's friend, their days in the shadows are numbered. In the aftermath of that killing, Raizo stages a daring escape, subsequently biding his time until the day he can take the entire Ozunu Clan down. Later, in Berlin, Europol agent Mika Coretti (Naomie Harris) discovers a money trail connecting multiple political murders to a mysterious network of elusive assassins from the Far East. While her superior Ryan Maslow (Ben Miles) orders Mika to back down and stop asking questions, she stealthily begins searching through classified agency files on a relentless mission to discover the truth about the murders. Singled out as a target as a direct result of her investigation, Mika is marked for death by lethal Ozunu assassin Takeshi (Rick Yune). Just as Mika is about to be silenced forever, Raizo saves her from certain death. But Raizo knows that Takeshi and the rest of the Ozuno Clan won't stop until he and Mika are both dead. Now, as Raizo and Mika are hunted through the winding streets of Europe, their only hope for survival is to trust one another and stay alive long enough to bring the Ozunu empire crumbling to the ground.
