CHARACTER MEDIA
(Former 'KoreAm' Kore Asian Media)
‘Clouds’ Make Way for Rain
KoreAm‘s Sophia Kim filed this report, and Elizabeth Kim the photos above, from last Thursday’s Hollywood premiere of Ninja Assassin, starring Rain:
Hundreds of giddy fans of all ages lined Hollywood Boulevard across from the Grauman’s Chinese Theatre last Thursday night, hoping to catch a glimpse, and maybe press the flesh, of the South Korean pop idol, Rain. It was a night that many die-hard Clouds (as Rain fans are called) had been anticipating for months—the Los Angeles premiere of Ninja Assassin, a martial arts action film in which “Bi,” as he is called in Korean, plays the lead role.
Paulina Yeung, one of the artist’s many international fans, said she flew in from Hong Kong just for the premiere. “I want to support Rain, to be here for him,” said Yeung, a retired government worker who wouldn’t give her age, but revealed she has a college-aged daughter. “Him being Asian, I am so proud of him.”
In Ninja Assassin, Rain plays Raizo, an orphan who is trained by the secret-society Ozunu Clan to become a deadly assassin. He later seeks revenge against the clan when his female friend is executed by the group’s leader, played by legendary martial arts performer Sho Kosugi. Produced by the Wachowski brothers of The Matrix triology and directed by James McTeigue, who directed V for Vendetta, Ninja Assassin opens nationwide and around the world on Wednesday. The film also features several Korean American actors, including Rick Yune, Sung Kang and Randall Duk Kim.
But, at Ninja Assassin’s Los Angeles premiere, much of the fan attention focused on Rain. Screaming females greeted the star who arrived around 6:30 p.m, looking quite GQ in a dark gray pin-striped suit and a solid magenta-colored tie. His short hair stylishly tousled at the top, the superstar took off his shades and broke into a broad smile. Much to the delight of his fans, he walked across the street to shake hands and sign autographs.
“It was a dream come true,” Rain would later say during an interview at Yamashiro Restaurant in Hollywood, two days after the premiere. “Wow, so many people! I thought, ‘Wow, am I popular in Hollywood?’ It was amazing.”
Check out more from the premiere and from KoreAm’s interview with Rain in our December issue!

11.19.09 [fan acct] Unforgettable night at the premiere of Ninja Assassin
I was contemplating whether to wait or to share with you now my experience on Nov. 19th. But I think I owe it to my regular co-followers from sixtofive1982 my own account of that day. And by the way, my thoughts and experiences were with all of you: jorain, asmaroc, busybee1982, pluie625, triplegreen, anya, and everybody I have not mentioned, sorry. I really wished we were all together those two nights.
As usual I couldn’t catch my sleep, so on Wednesday night I spent my waking hours reading comments from this site (where else could I have gone) and also watched Legend of Rainism concert in Japan. I was still awake by 8:00Am the following day. The last comment I wrote was when I said that my hands are paralyzed , I cannot comment anymore,I’m getting pretty excited for tonight’s event. After that I got ready, for I have to pick up Terisaurus and Snowball at the Burbank Airport at noon. My husband driving, it took us 10 minutes to get to the airport. It was not hard for me to identify them cuz Snowball sent me her picture.
As it turned out, they were two of the most down to earth people I’ve met. They were both very nice and friendly. And to think that we’ve just met but it seemed that we were like old friends. Later I’ve come to realized the closeness and camaraderie we shared all because of Rain. Anyway, the only things I was able to show Teri and Snowball was the place where Michael Jackson was buried, the Greek Observatory and the Hollywood sign on top of the hill. Soon we were at Greyhound Bus Station to meet dear Kongsao, whom we know is really a Rain fan. She was wearing one of those six to five T-shirts that she ordered online.
We were at the place in front of Grauman’s Chinese Theater around 3:00 pm. Yes, that early. But that’s okay because we were able to get good spots. There was a whole family of Hispanics next to us. Can you believe that? They know about Rain more than myself, and longer to boot. They carried with them all sorts of memorabilias that they purchased from a novelty store in Koreatown by Olympic and Western Avenues. They have life size posters of Rain, some large pictures of Rain made with clothing material. They carried with them music from his different cds. It was really awesome. I felt so proud and embarrassed at the same time. Here I am, an Asian, but not overly enthusiastic as these family. And they were waiting there since noon.
Anyway, across the street from us, the construction crew were busy building the scaffoldings that they used as props for the premiere night. After these were finished, men wearing Ninja costumes climbed these scaffoldings and entertained the fans and the tourists. They played soundtracks from the NA movie. Pretty soon the venue was filling with the media crowd. Stretched limousines were slowing down in front of the theatre, only to find out they were just passing thru. It was getting darker and tension was mounting among the spectators. Everyone was getting excited by the minute. We finished signing our names in those Rain banners provided by Diane from Rain Listings. She is so sweet and friendly. Then Jay from R-USA gave us fan posters. Actually, at the party, Jay gave us a lot of things: posters (2), a cd, a little keepsake bag with an R initial; Diane gave out little ninja toys. (Thanks Jay and Diane). Anyway, standing next to me was Paulina. She is from Hongkong, flew all the way here just to see the premiere. I told here to stay with us because she was by herself. She is another friendly character and so thoughtful, very nice lady. She goes everywhere wherever Rain has an important event to attend, say, concerts and fan meetings in Korea, China, Japan. Isn’t she something. I must say she is a loyal groupie. Around 7pm, a stretched limo pulled over in front of the theater and out came Rick Yune and a lady. Mr. Yune went across the street to greet the fans escorted by a couple of bodyguards. He was smiling while greeting the fans, signing autographs on those fans that Jay provided for us. He was saying ” this is a dream come true huh ! , and he signed all the fans’ fans from beginning of the line to the end and then he crossed the street back to the theater. There they started interviewing him, taking his pictures with the other casts and crew of NA. And then fans from across the street started screaming which of course signaled the coming of the main attraction of the evening, none other than Rain himself. He waved to all the fans. A few minutes later he crossed the street, shaking hands with the fans, saying ” Thanks for coming”. Once he was in front of us, he shook hands with kongsao’s left hand and she wouldn’t let go of Rain’s hand. But, Rain had eye contact with me and said Thanks for coming and shook my hand too but I was holding a camera, so I was able to touch him with my pinkie only. (darn camera ! !) Oh my Lordie ! ! I cannot believe it. That stare just melts me away. I thought I was going to have nervous coughing spells. The photographer caught this on camera, did everyone see that? You bet it was exciting. I don’t even remember if I was able to shoot some pictures of Rain after that. After all the excitement from the fans from this side of the street, Rain went back in front of the theatre and there he started answering all questions and took about millions of pictures of Rain for that evening. When they all started walking inside the theater, our group started planning how to go to the get together party. We were about to go to the meeting place to see my husband with my group when this man carrying a bunch of screening tickets for NA asked us if we wanted to attend the premiere showing. Is he kidding us? No, he was not. We grabbed them and on we went inside the theatre. But we were all seated separately. I was assigned at the left side Row 15, seat # 9 ( my lucky no.). Everyone watching was so excited, screaming, clapping their hands and everytime Rain appears shirtless, the girls would be screaming and shrieking and wowing. The men were also screaming. It was so much fun. At the end of the show, everyone stood up and applauded for a well complimented and entertaining movie.
So there I waited for a while for the people to leave. In fact I was waiting for my sister inside the movie. There were two entrances, left and right. I was on the left side. When there were just maybe 50 people left inside, I started for the left entrance door to exit. I was waiting there hoping to see my sister. But guess who’s coming instead. Yes, it was Rain. His bodyguards (bulky ones) , about 4 of them were walking ahead of him, then slowly Rain walked past me. It was kind of dark inside, but Rain was visible from the light outside the opened entrance door. I don’t know what came over me. Was it a reflex or something? Because when he walked past me, instinctively I patted his right “behind”, just lightly, but enough for him to look over his right shoulder. My God ! ! ! Why did I do that I said to myself. He might get mad or something. But he just smiled and went on his way. But I just stood there and reflected on what I did. By the way, I have Laryngitis, I have no voice; that even if I want to say his name, nothing would come out. So there, everyone, that was my confession. I never meant to do that but since I could not call him out, I just tapped his behind. I never targeted his behind but hey ! the man is tall, I’m only 5′3″. Figure that out. Not only was I able to feel the texture of his suit that evening, I was able to slightly feel the firmness of his back, not to mention, the eye contact as a special added bonus. So, to say that I was very happy that night was an understatement. Now that I was thinking about the incident, I’m just glad that I didn’t wear a wool coat, otherwise I might carry static with me and suppose at the time when I touched his back and I had static with me, I could have electrocuted him or worse, we might get spontaneous combustion. Lols. See, the night before it was windy here in So. California and usually there’s too much static when this happens.
Anyway, the night ended peacefully. I believe they had a party at Yamashiro in Hollywood Hills and we went to the get together with other Rain fans. There was a big feast. I met Chong there, Darlene, some Filipino fans, and many more. I believe most of them were members of RUSA.
The following night, our group went to KRESS where Rain made a guest appearance. I believe that night was intended for Rain. His posters were plastered inside the club everywhere you look wherever you go on the third floor. A lot of Rain fans were there. Rain finally appeared around 11:15 pm or so. There were a lot of people trying to catch a glimpse of Rain. I only saw his head, at the very least. He was there only for a few minutes and off he disappeared in the elevator. I’m so happy that Rain’s ordeal in Hollywood is finished. Now he can go back to Korea with peace of mind and confidence that the viewing public will patronize his movie.
Almost a year ago, his fans were eagerly anticipating his movie and before we knew it, we already attended the premiere night and seen the premiere screening. I hope we’ll get to see another Rain movie premiere in the near future and perhaps Rain fans will increase in number in the States as well. But for now, let’s just wish and pray that Rain’s Ninja Assassin becomes a huge box office success here and the rest of the world. Aja Aja !!

09-11-25 the KIDD VS RAIN
When
The Kidd was offered the chance to sit down for a one-on-one interview
with the star of “Ninja Assassin,” I absolutely jumped at the
opportunity. For awhile, I’ve been exploring the idea of expanding “The
Kidd Vs.” into areas beyond just my reviews, and interviews have been
something we’ve been targeting under the right circumstances. Warner
Bros. was kind enough to hook us up with some time to sit down with Rain
and talk about the new movie, his experiences with James McTeigue and
the Wachowski brothers, and more.
To
be perfectly honest, I was a little caught off-guard when he approached
me and introduced himself, because I totally didn’t recognize him at
all. I was expecting the long-haired asskicker from the film and was
unprepared to meet the short-haired, short-spoken guy shaking my hand.
I
was warned ahead of time that, while his English is coming along and
he’s been getting a crash course while going on this press tour to
promote the movie, he still had a bit of a tough time grasping the
language. He did have a translator at his disposal at his side, if
needed, but he seemed to do a pretty good job working with what he’s
been learning. However, as a result, you’ll notice some answers that
don’t seem to fit the questions, so it makes for a pretty interesting
interview. But there is no question that Rain was a very nice guy, who
is very passionate about this movie and you hopefully enjoying it.
With that said, let’s get some questions answered...
The
Kidd: I know you started out your debut was a small role in Speed
Racer, but it’s kind of the same exact crew working with James McTeigue,
who was the 2nd unit director, and the Wachowski brothers and what not.
So, for it to be your first American movie, how did it come about,
especially working with the Wachowski brothers and McTeigue, who, when
their names are attached to American movies right now, there’s a certain
expectation. So was it exciting for you to be a part of a major motion
picture like this with that team attached to it?
Rain:
Well, as you know, the “Ninja Assassin” is Wachoskis producing, James
McTeigue directing, stemming from “300” (referring to Legendary
Pictures) and “The Matrix.” When we were working on the “Speed Racer,”
and Larry and Andy Wachowski offered me, I said yes. You know, how could
I say no then?
The Kidd: Oh, of course...
Rain: And we made it.
The
Kidd: At least in terms of the visuals, I don’t know coming from doing
Asian cinema, TV, and your music career, were you familiar with their
work before you did “Speed Racer,” in terms of them doing “The Matrix”
movies, “V for Vendetta,” and “Speed Racer,” or was it new to you... at
least when you did “Speed Racer” with them, was it something that you
weren’t familiar with their styles, or did you know what you were
getting into with them?
(Translator clarifies question)
Rain:
When I was young, I wanted to be a... I wanted to be a singer and an
actor. So, the moviemaking process is very similar between Asian and
Hollywood. And the scale is so different. You know, Hollywood is much
bigger. I love... You know, I love my work... You know, I love my job.
The
Kidd: What I liked about the movie, because I saw it before I
interviewed you earlier today... what I really liked about the movie is
that it really sticks to being a hard R action ninja movie. And a lot of
the American movies now tend to soften how the movies are made,
specifically for a PG-13 rating. Was there any concern when you made the
movie that they might soften it or discussion that they might soften
it? Because a lot of movies now tend to take stuff out to make the
rating to get a bigger audience, and then when the DVDs and Blu-rays
came out, they incorporate more. I mean, did you know going in that it
was going to be a strictly violent hard R ninja movie, or was there
concern that maybe we’re not going to go all the way with this and they
might try to hedge a little?
Rain: Yeah, this is so unique, because it’s bloody...
The Kidd: Which I love...
Rain: I hope they’ll like it. I hope I’ll have more fans after this film. And, you know, I love bloody.
The Kidd: I mean, I know there are certain American franchises now that have moved that way with the PG-13 like “Die Hard.”
Rain: Yes...
The
Kidd: And the “Terminator” movie to try and... especially try to soften
the violence part, and the ratings you can get a little bit away with
things now with PG-13 that you couldn’t before. But what I really love
about “Ninja Assassin” is the fact that, within the first five minutes,
you know how violent the movie is going to be. Was that a selling point
for you though of how violent it is?
Rain: You know, whatever you expect, you will see more. Did you see the movie?
The Kidd: Yes.
Rain:
We have nine clans. You know, we have ninja two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight, nine are alive. I hope people like the movie.
The Kidd: Has there been discussion of taking it to sequels, or...?
Rain: (laughs) Not yet. I don’t know...
The Kidd: Or making this into a franchise, or it’s kinda going to be...
Rain: I told you... If people like it.
The
Kidd: Okay. Can you tell me a little bit about the training that went
into getting you ready for the role? Because I don’t know if you had
martial arts training going into this, but I imagine, in terms of
getting yourself physically fit for it and the weapons training, can you
talk to me a little bit about what you had to go through to get
yourself ready for the role?
Rain:
Before this film, when I was growing up, I learned Tae Kwon Do. Yeah,
it helped, you know, when I was doing stunts. So I had to make my body
fit, like Bruce Lee. I trained for eight months, five days a week, eight
hours a day. And I ate only chicken breast and vegetables. No sugar. No
salt. Not any soda. No chocolate. I really love chocolate. And, second
of all is I learned a lot of martial arts - Tae Kwon Do, Tai Chi, Kumdo,
kick boxing... you know... I learned a lot. It was horrible.
The
Kidd: And for how long did you, even still, did you feel that you were
ready to take on the physical... what was deemed necessary physically in
order to perform to the level you wanted to be at and that James
McTeigue wanted you to be at for the film?
Rain: Eight months.
The Kidd: Really?
Rain: Just eight months. I always know [it was] hard work.
The Kidd: There’s been a lot of crossover from Asian cinema to American cinema.
Rain: Mmm-hmm...
The
Kidd: And do you have any worry with “Ninja Assassin” being your first
big role that sometimes American audiences want to see the same thing
over and over. So, is there any worry that you’re only going to be seen
as a martial arts actor... for example, the way Jet Li is seen now or
Jackie Chan is seen now, where they want to see Jackie Chan do the same
thing or they want to see Jet Li do the same thing... Or do you, do you
have... I mean, is that your goal? Or do you want to do other things in
American cinema? Because I know in Korea, you worked in drama. You did a
lot of TV work as well. So, is that something that you’re looking to do
in American cinema as well, or do you have that concern that they’re
only going to see you as a martial artist?
Rain:
I’m not worried, because it’s a new style. You know... I know... I
love... I love the Bruce Lee movies, Jackie Chan movies, Jet Li movies,
but I’m so powerful. I’m so faster. I’m so young, you know, than them.
No... I’m just kidding. (laughs) Yeah, um... it’s going to be huge.
The Kidd: I hope so.
Rain: Yeah.
The
Kidd: I do hope so. As far as the... I mean, a lot of it goes into the
financing and the special effects, a lot of that is what sells right
now... and the fighting part, I think, is also a real selling point of
this. Did you have trouble going from a lot of dramatic work that you
did...
Rain: Accidents?
The
Kidd: Well, going into the action world? I mean, did you... going from
strictly, mostly drama work going into a very heavily action-oriented
film, was it a trouble adapting...
Rain: Ah, during stunts?
The Kidd: Yes.
Rain:
Yeah, I have lots of cuts, even though everybody took care of me. But I
still got hurt. sometimes, one day, I pretended I broke my legs. I
said, “Oh, I can’t feel my legs.” Everyone’s, you know, “Are you all
right? Are you okay, Rain?” I said, “I’m just kidding.” (laughs) Yeah,
it was fun.
The
Kidd: Another thing I really liked about “Ninja Assassin” was that it’s
not so much about redemption for the character, but it’s almost set up
to be revenge versus revenge, where the clan is looking for revenge for
being shamed by your character, and you’re looking for revenge because
the girl that you...
Rain:
You know, it’s a... it’s a popcorn movie. It is a kickass movie, you
know. Yeah, there’s the Ozunu ninja clan. I was one of them. I... uh...
they... one day, they killed my first love, and then I decided revenge
to the Ozunu clan. And I love my character. He’s very sexy.
The
Kidd: (laughs) He is very smooth in the film. I mean, there are times
where you see him... he almost has a “I know I’m bad ass...”
Rain: (laughs)
The
Kidd: ...aura to him. Especially when he’s captured, and he’s being
held by Europol, and you’re asking to be freed in a certain amount of
time, because you know that ninjas are coming to kill everyone, but he
seems so calm and so relaxed that...
Rain: Just enjoy. (laughs) Just enjoy.
The
Kidd: It’s not a big deal, because I know who I am, and there’s nothing
to worry about. So, like I said, I think the redemption part... not the
redemption, but the revenge versus revenge with the clan versus your
character, I thought, was a very interesting take, because there’s
reason for them to come after you and there’s reason for you to come
after them, and then it butts heads, as opposed to just... well, you’re
just looking out for revenge. So I thought that was pretty interesting. I
do have to ask you a question for my readers, because I want to touch
on a story that came out this summer, which I also thought was pretty
interesting, which was the... ummm... I have to ask you about the Megan
Fox story, which I’m sure you’re familiar with to this point. Over the
summer, when Megan Fox was promoting “Transformers,” she specifically
singled you out that she wanted to meet you when she was touring Korea.
Now I don’t know how true the story is, so that’s why I wanted to at
least ask, so you could set the record straight and what not. And you
basically said “I’m not interested.”
Rain: Uh huh...
The Kidd: So, I had to ask, on behalf of the entire male gender, why you said, “I’m not interested” in meeting...
Rain:
No, no... I love her. I love her. You know, this question is...
(laughs)... so hard. I want to focus on just “Ninja Assassin” for now.
The Kidd: Okay.
Rain: Sorry about that.
The
Kidd: No, it’s... it’s okay. I just thought that... I wanted to at
least give you a chance, because, you know, there’s a lot of rumors that
get thrown around, so I wanted to see, or at least give you a chance to
say “Yes, I said it” or “No, I didn’t” or “I didn’t want any part of
it.”
(translator clarifies question)
Rain: I haven’t... you know...
Translator: So it’s not true. He didn’t... he never heard of it.
The Kidd: Okay. All right. Thank you very much.
There
you have it. It did feel like he was ducking the Megan Fox question,
which is fair if he doesn’t want to get caught up with that or have it
be a distraction as he tries to sell his new movie, but I had to ask.
You
can check out The Kidd Vs. Ninja Assassin later this week, but
definitely know that I wasn’t kissing his ass when I told him I liked
the movie. I enjoyed seeing it, and would recommend it to anyone looking
for a good action flick.
“Ninja Assassin” opens this Wednesday, November 25.

CNN "비, 도전을 두려워하지 않는 인물" 극찬
미국 CNN이 가수 겸 배우 비(27, 본명 정지훈)를 "세계적인 슈퍼스타로서의 면모를 다 갖춘 인물"이라고 평가했다
24일(현지시간) CNN은 '아시아 팝스타에서 '닌자 어쌔신'으로'라는 제목으로 비가 그간 어떻게 아시아의 톱스타로 성장했고 할리우드 진출에 도전하게 됐는지에 대해 자세히 소개했다.
또한 CNN은 자사 프로그램인 '토크 아시아'와 비의 인터뷰를 인용, "패배를 받아들이지 않고 더 많은 비판을 받아들일 수록 더 강해지기 위해 노력한다"고 비를 소개했다.
비, 세계적 슈퍼스타 성장면모 다 갖췄다” CNN
미국의 CNN은 24일 한국인 최초로 할리우드 메이저 영화의 주인공을 맡은 배우 겸 가수 ‘비’(본명 정지훈)를 “세계적인 슈퍼스타로 성장할 수 있는 면모를 다 갖추고 있다”며 25일 개봉되는 ‘닌자 어쌔신’에서 비가 관객들로부터 어떤 반응을 끌어낼지 주목했다.
CNN은 이날 ‘아시아 팝 스타에서 닌자 어쌔신’이라는 기사에서 백댄서 출신인 비가 아시아 최고 스타가 되는 과정은 쉽지 않았지만 이제 세계적인 스타로 도약하려고 있다며 그의 성장사와 닌자 어쌔신 출연 과정 등을 자세히 다뤘다.
CNN은 자사 프로그램인 토크 아시아와의 인터뷰에서 “비판이 많을수록 나에게는 강력한 성공 의지를 불러 일으킨다. 그래서 나는 더 열심히 한다”고 말했다며 비는 실패에 결코 굴하지 않는 인물이라고 소개했다.
비의 할리우드 영화 도전은 지난해 출연작인 ‘스피드 레이서’에 이어 이번이 두번째라면서 이번 영화 출연을 위해 힘든 훈련을 수개월간 감내한 그는 “이 영화에 마음과 혼을 쏟았다”고 말했다고 CNN은 전했다.
그런 만큼 비는 “이번 영화에 많은 기대를 하기를 원하다”며 “사람들이 실망하지 않을 것이라고 생각한다”는 소감을 밝혔다고 CNN은 전했다.
CNN은 비가 미국에선 상대적으로 덜 알려졌지만 그의 공연 티켓은 아시아에서 순식간에 매진되며 2년 전 피플지(誌)에서 가장 아름다운 사람 가운데 1명이었고 같은 해 타임지의 가장 영향력 있는 인물 온라인 투표에서는 미국의 인기 코미디언 스티븐 콜버트를 제쳤을 정도라고 전했다.
이와 함께 CNN은 비가 이번 출연을 통해 이루고자 하는 꿈은 다시 처음부터 시작해 미국에서도 이름을 알리는 것이라고 말했다고 덧붙였다.
이어 CNN은 비에 대해 "워쇼스키 감독의 '닌자 어쌔신' 개봉을 앞두고 있으며 도전을 두려워하지 않는 인물"이라고 전했다.
비는 CNN과 인터뷰에서 "이 영화에 내 마음과 혼을 모두 쏟아부었다"며 "사람들이 많이 기대 했으면 좋겠다. 절대로 실망하지 않을 것이기 때문이다"며 '닌자 어쌔신'에 대한 강한 자신감을 보이기도 했다.
한편 비는 극중 비밀집단 오즈누 파에게 거둬져 세계 최고의 인간병기로 키워진 라이조 역을 맡았다. 비는 대부분의 액션을 대역 없이 소화해 화제를 모았다. 오는 26일 개봉한다.

When Shadows Strike: Ninja Assassin Movie Review
Raizo (Rain) is one of the deadliest assassin in the world. Taken and trained by Ozunu Clan known to be as makers of world's merciless and violent paid killers, Raizo grew up as a skillful and well trained Ninja. But deaths of his friends haunts him every single day. One day he can't take it anymore and decides to leave the clan. Now living alone in the city, Raizo trains more for the final showdown.
Ninja Assassin is one of those Ninja films that shows a very gritty and real representation of Ninja clans in Japan. Its about time to see a flick showing the ugly truth behind Ninjas and paid Assassins. The movie shows how Ninjas are trained to be heartless but despite that there will always be a humanity deep inside their persona.
I enjoy watching the fight scenes. Its indeed a martial arts extravaganza. Giving Raizo a non-conventional Ninja weapon instead of a Katana (though he uses it on some part of the movie) also adds to the excitement. I want to complain about the dark sets but that is how Ninjas strike right? Ninjas move like shadows and moves swiftly through silhouettes. Most of the scenes are dark but good thing the last showdown has more lights because of the flames. Raizo's final attack is cool and fluidly executed, though reminds me of moves from some animes and japanese movies. The violence of Ninja Assassin is far more brutal than Kill bill having more bodies cut in to pieces and more blood splattered all over the places. It is also has one of the best flesh wound special effects that looks almost real.
Rain's performance as a Ninja is superb. He don't really need to show emotions. His skill in martial arts are perfect for this role. Joon Lee on the other hand who portrayed the Teenage Raizo shows a more dramatic performance since he portrayed Raizo's character on its most emotional state. Naomie Harris plays a good supporting character as Mikka Coretti of Europol though I can't see any chemistry between her and Rain.
Ninja Assassin is not the best martial arts movie I ever watched but no doubt it is one of the best Ninja related film of all time. To all ninja lovers out there, this is the movie for you. This is a must watch. Directed by James McTeigue and Produced by Joel Silver and the Wachowski Brothers. Opening on November 26 across the Philippines, “Ninja Assassin” is a Warner Bros. Pictures presentation in association with Legendary Pictures and Dark Castle Entertainment.

Movie review: Ninja Assassin 6.75 out of 10
6.75 out of 10
Ninja Assassin
rates a 6.75 out of 10. As usual, this review will be as spoiler-free
as possible. Let’s look at The Good, The Bad and The Bottom Line.The Good
An action movie like Ninja Assassin generally tries to get off to an adrenaline pumping start. These types of films usually have a fight scene or chase scene or something along those lines to immediately suck you into the action. Well, Ninja Assassin stuck to this formula and gives a very bloody, weapon wielding opening sequence. Let’s put it this way, don’t be late or get stuck in the concession line or you’ll miss one of the best scenes in the film.
Throughout the rest of the film, the action scenes remain very well done. One particular scene between two ninjas in close quarters in the dark is especially good. The majority of these sequences are executed very well with some good camera work (with the exception listed below), interesting and gory blood effects, and very good weapon play and CGI to allow the human eye to follow the speed of the weapons. This is definitely an American made ninja movie, but does pay homage to true Kung Fu films of the past with some super-natural abilities and moves and, of course, gallons of blood.
The incredibly talented Rain plays our protagonist, Raizo. His look and physical ability really give a certain level of belief to his character. Shô Kosugi plays the leader of the Ozunu clan, responsible for raising Raizo and turning him into a stealthy killer. This role was also well done and Shô Kosugi does a great job bringing this despicable, yet understandable character to life. Ninja Assassin also throws in a few funny moments to break the tension and some very interesting scene transitions.
You want a lot of bloody action…Ninja Assassin delivers.
The Bad
As soon as the blood stops pouring from the opening scene, the movie hits the brakes…hard. The filmmakers use the next large chunk of time trying to develop “the story.” The problem is the storytelling method. It gets very choppy and sporadic as the scenes jump around and sometimes flashback, then jump back to the present, etc. The story was decent enough to justify the bloodshed, but is told in such a way that is neither interesting nor does it flow in a way that makes any sense. Obviously, a film like this is not focusing on a deep, meaningful story, but it would be nice to have a decent one to keep us interested between battles. Ninja Assassin certainly didn’t have a story like that.
Other than the couple main ninjas and ninja master, the acting was pretty lousy all around. Naomie Harris played the female lead role of Mika, who was trying to uncover the mystery of these ninja clans and Ben Miles played Mika’s boss and ally, Ryan Maslow. These two characters were meant to carry the bulk of the story and give Raizo some people to protect against the evil assassin clan. However, after a few minutes of seeing them on screen you really couldn’t care less if these characters lived or died. There was no connection.
Probably the best scene in the film is a chase through busy streets (this was in the trailer, so no spoilers). The problem with this scene was that it was filmed with a non-mounted, “free” camera where the cameraman is on foot and runs around filming the scene. This gives an “I’m right there in the action” feel to it, but makes it incredibly hard to decipher want is transpiring. It’s a shame that the filmmakers decided to use this technique for this particular scene because it would have been much cooler with stationary shots.
The only other problem was the classic good guy versus bad guy while all others pale in comparison plot. Raizo, Takeshi (the main evil ninja), and Ozunu (the ninja master), were the only ninjas with any real skill. Meanwhile, all the other nameless ninja clan members were beaten in waves with only a small level of difficulty. Again, you have to have the protagonist be able to defeat the bad guys, but it just seems that some filmmaker out there would find a way to do this without using such a tired cliché. I mean seriously: did Ozunu only have 2 good ninja students out of the dozens in the movie? If so, he needs to reevaluate his teaching methods.
The Bottom Line
If you are a fan of Kung Fu films or really bloody action-packed American-made martial arts movies, than you may want to check this out in theaters. If you enjoy these things, but can wait for the rental, do so. There is nothing about this film that can only be enjoyed on the big screen. Parents, obviously use caution. Saying that the violence and gore is over-the-top may be an understatement.

Hero Who Can’t Keep His Shirt On
The best thing about “Ninja Assassin” is its refreshingly honest title: unlike those few, unwary souls who rush to “Precious” solely on the strength of its twee title and happy-go-lucky television trailers, no one who sees “Ninja Assassin” can reasonably complain about the violence.
Which is just as well, because this saga, set in Berlin, is more committed to its bloodletting than to any of its characters. The plot, when glimpsed between flying body parts, concerns Raizo (the South Korean former boy-band member Rain), a rogue ninja with a grudge against the clan that abducted him as a child and killed his ninja honey.
That makes him very useful to Mika (Naomie Harris), an Interpol-style cop who suspects world governments of hiring ninjas to do their dirtiest deeds. If only Raizo would keep his shirt on, then maybe she could concentrate enough to prove it.
Perhaps in homage to his rippling star (whose martial arts prowess I’m not qualified to judge but whose hotness, whether throwing knives or folding laundry, is self-evident), the director, James McTeigue, rarely misses an opportunity to drench the film in water.
Flashbacks to ninja training school — first love, first wounds, first downpour — are quite lovely, making us wish that the film had remained in the past and avoided the present-day blurs of shadowy, red-and-black action.
Ninjas may be slippery when wet, but if we learned anything from Indiana Jones, it’s that bullets trump sharp objects every time.
“Ninja Assassin” is rated R (Under 17 requires accompanying parent or adult guardian). Bodies are halved, beheaded, dismembered and consigned to an eternal “spin” cycle.

[fan account] Met Rain in San Francisco
credit to sisi@rainlegend
Yesterday, I went to the Ninja assassin prescreening at SF Centre theater. To our surprise, Rain showed up before the movie started! Everyone was so excited to see him. Rain said hi to everyone and the crowded room was filled with all these screams shouting "Rain! Rain! Rain!" It was just awsome!
Then I learnt Rain's flight to HK and went to see him off today. I was waiting at the airport for him to show up and when I saw him with an assistant. It looked like he was in a hurry because he walked so fast. Finally he arrived at the security check line. So I went up to him and asked for his signature but his assistant said "No, no, no, we are in a hurry". At that moment the lovely voice of Rain said "It's Okay, It's Okay. Give it to me" I thanked him and he signed on my Rainism CD. After he signed my CD, he went to the security check line and I said bye to him. Rain is so sweet and I wish HK fans will give him a warm welcome!

Raizo (Rain) is one of the deadliest assassins in the world. Taken from the streets as a child, he was transformed into a trained killer by the Ozunu Clan, a secret society whose very existence is considered a myth. But haunted by the merciless execution of his friend by the Clan, Raizo breaks free from them…and vanishes. Now he waits, preparing to exact his revenge.
In Berlin, Europol agent Mika Coretti (Naomie Harris) has stumbled upon a money trail linking several political murders to an underground network of untraceable assassins from the Far East. Defying the orders of her superior, Ryan Maslow (Ben Miles), Mika digs into top secret agency files to learn the truth behind the murders. Her investigation makes her a target, and the Ozunu Clan sends a team of killers, led by the lethal Takeshi (Rick Yune), to silence her forever. Raizo saves Mika from her attackers, but he knows that the Clan will not rest until they are both eliminated.
Now, entangled in a deadly game of cat and mouse through the streets of Europe, Raizo and Mika must trust one another if they hope to survive…and finally bring down the elusive Ozunu Clan.

닌자어쌔신’ 19禁 불구 주말예매 1위 ‘2012’ 제쳤다
[2009-11-25 11:51:14]
[뉴스엔 차연 기자]
비(정지훈)의 할리우드 첫 주연작 ‘닌자 어쌔신’이 주말예매율 1위를 차지했다.
26일 개봉하는 2009년 하반기 기대작 ‘닌자 어쌔신’은 영화진흥위원회를 비롯해 맥스무비, 티켓링크, 인터파크 등 주요 예매사이트 예매 순위 정상을 차지해 예매율로 최고의 기대감을 증명했다.
25일 10시 현재 ‘닌자 어쌔신’은 영화진흥위원회 영화입장권 통합전산망 기간별 예매집계에서 개봉주(금, 토, 일 3일) 예매 순위 1위를 차지했다. 또 예매전문 사이트 맥스무비예매율 39.84%, 인터파크 주말 예매율 32.96%, 티켓링크 주말 예매율 28.71%를 기록하며 금주 예매 순위 정상에 올랐다.
특히 ‘닌자 어쌔신’의 이와 같은 예매 순위 1위의 기록은 2주간 파죽지세의 기세로 흥행몰이를 이어가던 ‘2012’를 제치고 차지한 결과라 더욱 주목된다. 뿐만 아니라 청소년 관람불가의 등급으로 경쟁영화에 비해 상대적으로 한정적일 수밖에 없는 관객층에도 불구하고 1위를 차지해 흥행에 대한 청신호를 예고하고 있다.
조직에 의해 비밀병기로 키워진 남자가 친구를 죽인 조직을 상대로 펼치는 거대한 복수를 그린 액션 블록버스터 ‘닌자 어쌔신’은 세계적인 감독 워쇼스키 형제와 명 제작자 조엘 실버가 10년을 준비한 야심작으로 한국을 대표하는 스타 비가 주연을 맡아 일찌감치 기대를 모았다.
이미 국내를 비롯해 세계 네티즌들을 대상으로 진행한 설문조사에서 최고의 기대작으로 선정되었고 국내외 언론과 관객의 뜨거운 관심 속에 연일 화제를 모으며 하반기 최대 기대작으로 꼽히고 있다. 또 시사회를 통해 영화가 공개된 후에는 세련된 영상과 현란한 액션, 흥미로운 스토리로 제2의 ‘매트릭스’와 비견되며 호평을 이끌어낸 바 있다.
‘닌자 어쌔신’에는 ‘캐리비안의 해적: 세상의 끝에서’ 나오미 해리스, ‘브이 포 벤데타’ 벤 마일즈, 전설적인 액션배우 쇼 코스기와 한국계 배우 랜달 덕 김, 성강, 릭 윤, 신인그룹 ‘엠블랙’의 이준 등이 출연한다.
‘닌자 어쌔신’은 최고의 기대 속에 국내에서는 210개 프린트로, 미국에서는 2,800개의 프린트로 26일 공개된다. 캐나다, 덴마크, 말레이시아, 싱가폴 등의 국가에서도 금주 개봉을 앞두고 있다.

비│청춘은 아직도 배고프다
청춘은 아직도 배고프다
2009.11.25
글 위근우 (eight@10asia.co.kr)
편집 이지혜 (seven@10asia.co.kr)
월드스타. 언젠가부터 비의 본명인 정지훈보다도 더 익숙해진 이 명칭에 대해 누군가는 인정할 수도, 누군가는 거품이라 말할 수도 있다. 중요한 것은 그에게 그런 수식이 따라다닌다는 것이고, 칭찬을 하던 비난을 하던 결국 그 기준치는 월드스타라는 저 높은 곳에 체크된 붉은 선이라는 것이다. 만약 그 기준이 그를 좇지 않았더라면, 아니 그가 그 기준을 좇지 않았더라면 2006년 <타임>이 선정한 ‘세계에서 가장 영향력 있는 100인’에 그의 이름이 들어간 것은 영광스러운 한 순간의 기억으로 박제되었을 것이다.
하지만 그는 자신에게 주어진 월드스타라는 명칭을 기사 작위 같은 일종의 명예직으로 받아들이기보다는 그 이름에 어울리는 현재진행형의 모습을 보여주기 위해 열렬한 인기와 부가 보장된 한국 활동을 뒤로 미뤘다. South Korea를 “전쟁 중이거나 핵을 가지고 있는 나라” 정도로 알고 있는 미국 시장에서 그는 스타 비가 아닌 수없이 오디션에 낙방하는 신인 레인이었다. 월드스타와 무명의 신인 사이의 간극은 너무나 큰 것이었고, 이에 대해 한쪽에서는 신랄한 거품론을 펼쳤다. 하지만 그 간극은 결국 월드스타의 상징적 차원과 실재적 차원의 간극이다. 영화배우 강수연이나 배구선수 김세진에게 붙었던 이 명칭을 상징적 의미로 받아들이지 않고 스스로 그에 어울리는 존재라는 걸 증명하기 위해 뛰어든 건 비가 처음이다. 그것은 무모하거나 용감하기 이전에, 처음이기에 외로운 길이다.
월드스타라 불리는 이의 생존방식
돌이켜 보면 6인조 댄스그룹 팬클럽의 실패 이후 솔로 활동을 결심한 순간부터 비는 언제나 혼자서 투쟁해 왔다. 이것은 아무리 절실한 노력이라고 해도 결코 노력이라는 어휘로 대체할 수 없는 그만의 방식이다. MBC <황금어장>의 ‘무릎 팍 도사’에서 자신의 위치를 너무 잘 아는 여유만만한 모습을 보여주던 그가 어머니의 죽음에 대해 “돈이 있으면 살렸다니까요?”라고 말할 때 그 격앙된 목소리에는 아직 숨길 수 없는 적개심이 그대로 묻어나왔다. “세상이 나에게 등을 돌렸다면 나도 보란 듯이 보여 주겠다”는 그에게 세상은 필연적으로 싸워 이겨야 할, 약한 모습을 보이면 안 되는 싸워야 할 대상이다. 미국 활동을 하면서 악플과 왜곡 기사를 보며 오히려 힘을 냈다는 것, 그것이 딱 비의 방식이다. 내가 이러이러해서 거품이라고? 오냐, 그렇다면 그 이상을 보여주마. 박진영에게 발탁되기 위해 “음악이랑 싸우는 기분”으로 5시간 동안 춤을 췄을 때나, 할리우드에서 주연으로 발탁되어 작품을 찍을 때나 그는 투쟁의 방식으로 산다. 아니 생존한다.
첫 할리우드 주연작 <닌자 어쌔신>에서 그가 연기한 라이조가 고독한 영웅이라는 사실은 그래서 흥미롭다. 라이조에게 삶이란 외로운 투쟁의 연속이다. 어렸을 때는 고아로서 추위와 굶주림과 싸웠고, 부모 대신 그를 받아준 킬러 집단에서는 같이 생활하는 동료들과 목숨을 걸고 수련해야 했다. 유일하게 마음을 열었던 친구가 조직을 떠나려 했다가 죽는 모습을 두 눈으로 봐야했고, 조직의 룰 대신 자신의 신념을 따르고자 하자 사방이 그의 적이 된다. 최고의 킬러이기에 그만큼 강한 킬러들과 싸워야 하고, 어둠 속에서 누구보다 강하기에 밝게 빛나는 세상에 얼굴을 내밀 수 없는 그에게 세상은 그 자체로 투쟁의 대상이다. 이러한 라이조의 상처 받고 굴곡진 정체성은 비의 육체를 통해 형상화된다.
유일무이한 퍼포머, 배고픈 호랑이, 고독한 킬러
사실, 영화의 프로모션 단계부터 모두들 그의 몸 이야기만을 했다. 시사 이후에 나온 몸과 액션은 수준급이되 연기는 부족하다는 평가도 마찬가지다. 냉정하게 말해 <닌자 어쌔신>은 제임스 맥티그 감독의 전작인 <브이 포 벤데타> 같은 작품에 비교하면 그다지 흥미로운 지점이 보이지 않는 범작이다. 하지만 많은 이들이 ‘몸매만 남았다’고 말하는 그 몸은 단순히 그 정도로 평가될 수준의 것이 아니다. 아침에 아몬드 한 줌을 씹어 삼키면서 이를 악물고 인터벌 없이 각종 근력 운동을 소화해서 만든 그의 몸은 헬스 몇 개월로 펌핑한 근육질과는 차원이 다르다. 그것은 약물 없이 동양인이 만들 수 있는 100% 혹은 110%의 결과물이자 킬러의 몸이다. 그리고 그것이 비가 스스로를 증명하는 방식이다. 월드스타라는 타이틀에서 살짝 벗어나 생각하면 한국인 배우가 네이티브 스피커처럼 연기하길 바라는 것은 일종의 난센스다. 하지만 몸은 언어적 핸디캡과는 상관없이 본인의 의지로 컨트롤할 수 있는 유일한 무기이고, 비는 닌자로서 생존하기 위해 수련하는 라이조와 마찬가지로 할리우드에서 생존하기 위해 신체를 극한의 단계로 끌어올렸다. 그것은 연기 대신 남은 잉여 같은 것이 아니라 <내 사랑 내 곁에>에서 김명민이 보여준 살인적 감량처럼 육체적 리얼리티의 극단이다. 이 지점에서 라이조는 “굶어 죽기 직전의 호랑이” 같은 절박한 투쟁 본능의 비와 조우한다.
비가 공공연히 이야기한 것처럼 <닌자 어쌔신>의 흥행 여부는 여태 그가 그려온 상승 곡선에 또 한 번의 도약을 가능하게 할 중요한 분수령이다. 그 결과가 어떤 방식으로 흘러갈지는 누구도 예상할 수 없다. 하지만 확실한 건 그가 자신의 이름을 주연으로 올린 할리우드 작품을 들고 왔다는 것이고, 그것을 통해 투쟁의 공간으로서의 세상은 더욱 넓어졌다는 사실이다. 만약 월드스타라는 타이틀이 아니라면 한국인으로서는 유일무이한 성과를 거뒀노라 평가받겠지만 이제 사람들은 한국인 치고 얼마나 잘했나보다는 할리우드 주연으로서 얼마나 잘했는지를 따진다. 그것은 비에게만 적용되는 가혹한 기준인 동시에 그가 홀로 싸우며 확보한 자신만의 투쟁 영역이다. 제이튠이라는 둥지를 만들고 엠블랙이라는 새끼 새를 키우지만 그들의 춤을 후배들보다 우월하게 소화해내는 유일무이한 퍼포머. 할리우드를 통해 세계 정복의 꿈을 펼치고 싶어하는 여전히 배고픈 호랑이. 그것이 비, 이 남자가 생존하는 방식이다

비(정지훈)가 할리우드에 제대로 입성했다. 액션영화 '닌자 어쌔신'의 당당한 주인공으로 세계언론의 주목을 받으며 25일(현지시간) 개봉을 앞뒀다.
연기자 비, 혹은 정지훈의 작품은 공통점이 있다. 바로 '나쁜남자'와 '순애보'다. '나쁜남자'로 데뷔한 뒤 6년 전 시작된 연기 도전에서부터 비는 이 두가지 특징을 그대로 유지하고 있다.
그의 드라마 데뷔작은 2003년 방송된 KBS 2TV '상두야 학교가자'(극본 이경희·연출 이형민). 연기자 정지훈의 출발을 알린 '상두야 학교가자'에서 그는 전과자에 미혼부로 아픈 딸을 키우는 3류 인생 제비지만 애틋한 사랑을 간직한 차상두 역을 맡았다. 드라마는 10% 안팎의 비교적 낮은 시청률을 기록했지만, 당시 국민적 인기를 누렸던 '대장금'과 맞붙었다는 것을 감안하면 상당히 선전했다.
이후 연기자 비의 폭발력을 보여준 작품은 이듬해 출연한 차기작 KBS 2TV '풀하우스'(극본 민효정·연출 표민수)였다. 동명 로맨스 만화를 원작으로 한 이 작품에서 비는 사랑에는 서툰 까칠한 톱스타 이영재로 매력을 뽐내는 한편 낮은 시청률의 설움도 한번에 풀었다. '풀하우스'는 시청률 50%를 넘겼고, 비가 대만과 일본 등 아시아의 톱스타로 거듭나는 데 큰 몫을 했다.
2005년 KBS 2TV '이 죽일 놈의 사랑'(극본 이경희·연출 김규태)에서도 그는 여전히 나쁜 남자였다. 허름한 옷차림의 상처투성이 이종격투기 선수 강복구가 그의 역. 이유도 모른 채 복수만을 꿈꾸다 운명적인 사랑을 만나 괴로워하는 비운의 남자였다. 시청률은 저조했지만 비장미 넘치는 캐릭터는 인상적으로 다가왔다. '이죽사'의 강복구는 그가 지금껏 연기한 캐릭터 중 '닌자 어쌔신'의 주인공 라이조와 가장 많은 접점을 지닌 인물이기도 하다.
박찬욱 감독과 손잡은 첫 영화 '싸이보그지만 괜찮아'로 비는 처음 '나쁜남자'를 벗는다. 순백의 환자복에 가면을 쓴 정신병자 일순은 같은 환자인 영군은 세심하게 보살핀다. 다만 짧은 회상장면에서 폭력적인 사회 부적응자였던 일순의 모습이 잠깐 드러난다. 많은 화제성에도 불구하고 영화는 흥행에 실패했다. 다만 브라운관을 넘어선 배우 비의 가능성을 널리 알렸다.
이후 할리우드로 간 비는 '스피드 레이서'의 동양인 레이서 태조 토고 칸으로 영화 관계자들에게 눈도장을 찍었고, 이어 '닌자 어쌔신'의 라이조로 첫 주연을 따냈다. 비가 할리우드로 간 이후 나쁜남자와 순애보의 색채가 조금씩 지워지고 있다는 점은 이채롭다.
할리우드가 주목하고 있는 것은 아시아권 전체에 어필하는 톱스타 비의 유명세와 그의 아름다운 육체, 그리고 액션 스타로서의 가능성인 것으로 보인다. 할리우드 액션 히어로로 거듭난 비가 어떤 결과를 거둘지 관심이 더욱 높아지고 있다.

Simply Titled, Simply Fun: “Ninja Assassin”
I’m so glad I got to review this movie! Let’s face it, ninjas are awesome, not as awesome as pirates, but a close second place. Unfortunately, ninjas have been hiding from the media lately. There hasn’t been a movie about the shadow warriors in a long time, but the ninja may be coming back into the mainstream public. Prepare yourself to enter a land of mystic powers and really, really, really violent and angry ninjas.
Alright, do you want take a guess at what the story is about? I hate to ruin the suspense, but it’s about ninjas…and assassins. It’s not hard to tell that this movie isn’t too heavy on storyline, but I’ll sum it up for you anyway. I’m fairly sure that Raizo (Rain) is an orphan out on the streets, until he is taken by the Ozunu Clan to a hidden temple in the mountains. They train him, along with other boys and girls, to become ruthless, cunning ninja assassins. All of the training sequences feel very 300-ish, but there are some fairly cool parts. So, Raizo falls in love with another ninja girl who doesn’t want to be a ninja. She would rather live life happily and grow trees, but Raizo definitely wants to kill people. Things change when Takeshi (Rick Yune) punishes her for trying to run away, which makes Raizo turn on his clan and go rogue.
Years go by, with no real explanation of what happens during this break, until an agent from Europol, Mika (NaomieNinja Assassin Harris), figures out that the Ozunu Clan is still doing high profile hits for 100 pounds of gold. She becomes the next target, but Raizo intervenes and they begin their CGI fueled journey to take down the Ozunu Clan.
The very first thing you’ll notice while watching Ninja Assassin is that it’s extremely violent. Seriously, it was shocking to see how violent it was. Personally, I loved every second of it. Most of the blood, guts and blades were CGI, but during the fast paced action scenes, it doesn’t really matter. Not to sound cold, but the over-the-top gore was just plain fun to watch and never really got old. Some people may be offended or disgusted, but in this day in age where we’re all desensitized by the demons in our televisions, I don’t think there will be much of a stink about it.
Don’t expect this movie to be winning any Oscars with the acting, but I can’t say that all of the acting was completely awful. Rain and Naomie Harris do a decent job, along with some of the supporting cast. I have to say, I loved hearing the cliché ninja voices throughout. It really felt like watching one of the campy 80’s ninja movies. The characters are generic, but still fun to watch. One of the main ”bad” ninjas pulls off some epic Darth Maul moves, using his double-bladed sword. It’s laugh-inspiring fun to watch all of the ninjas facing off with “guns blazing” special agents.
The environments that the movie taNinja Assassinkes you to are very aesthetically pleasing. There are fight scenes that take place in a dojo filled with dangling fireballs, dark, city streets and the temple that the ninjas are trained in looks pretty nifty. I think that if they hadn’t had such dramatic environments, the fight scenes wouldn’t have had such a great vibe. It was a blast seeing the great scenery while a bunch of ninjas fight to the bloody end. I mean, what could be more fun?
Another interesting thing about this movie was how they portrayed the other ninjas. Instead of them being men in pajamas with shiny toys, they did a great job of making them seem like monsters. Occasionally, I’d forget that I was watching an action movie, because they made it seem like a horror movie with evil creatures lurking in the shadows. Imagine the movie Aliens, but replace the aliens with ninjas. I really liked this unique take, because just seeing guys sword fighting was a very tired method of making ninja movies.
I’ll admit, this movie isn’t “technically” good: for some reason, all the ninjas speak Ninja AssassinEnglish, the music is a generic blend of metal/techno/old Japanese strings and flutes, the acting is not particularly good, the story is weak, etc. The list is long, but I can honestly say that the entire movie is redeemed by one quality. It’s fun! Sometimes, movies don’t have to be deep or well done, as long as they accomplish the goal of entertainment. People were cheering and applauding throughout the entire movie when there would be memorable kills or ridiculous action scenes. So what if people are dual wielding desert eagles and blowing off ninja’s legs?
I know that this movie isn’t going to win any awards, but isn’t it enough to just be entertained for an hour and a half? I would be willing to go see this one again with my friends, just to see all of the fun fights and kills. I don’t think that anyone is going into this movie expecting much other than ninja’s killing each other in brutal and beautiful (brutiful?) ways. I know that some critics will just throw this movie aside because of it’s flaws, but I say that Ninja Assassin delivers on the fun, the laughs and the entertainment.
I give Ninja Assassin 3.5 “Gruesome Scenes” out of 5

Ninja Assassin: The epitome of excellence in film entertainment
by Fiore Mastracci | November 24, 2009
Discuss Article NINJA ASSASSIN
We've all seen the story before %u2013 a special band of assassins with unbelievable skills, unknown to the world, until one goes rogue. Hunted from both sides, he seeks his own brand of justice and morality where none exists. The genre was epitomized in Chuck Norris' AN EYE FOR AN EYE. In that film, Norris heard whispering voices each time the ninja were near. There is a respectful nod to that film element in this movie.
So, what makes NINJA ASSASSIN so different? Simply, the professionalism of the folks behind the camera. Together they have combined to produce one of the best action and martial arts films in quite some time. I thoroughly enjoyed watching this movie, it entertained me from beginning to end and I will most certainly add it to my own personal video collection. As such it exemplifies the epitome of excellence in film entertainment and earns the honor of the FIST OF FIORE AWARD for 2009. To date, only two films have earned this distinction for this year. NINJA ASSASSIN now joins STAR TREK as examples of the year's best.
Let's talk about the crew. NINJA ASSASSIN was penned by J. Michael Straczynski who earned my respect when he was scripting one of the better sci-fi television shows, BABYLON 5. His script is transformed into visual action by the Wachowski Brothers, Andy and Larry. Certainly these two are no strangers to stylized action yarns having reinvented the term with THE MATRIX. Toss into the mix the granddaddy of action films, Joel Silver and you have a combination that performs at the top of its game.
Additional credit is also due to Director of Photography Karl Lindenlaub whose use of angles is superb, especially for the matted and SFX shots. And, Editor Glen Ganziano, who with the exception of one small section of flashback at the film's fulcrum, splices together a non-stop visual extravaganza.
KEY SCENES TO LOOK FOR:
1. THE TATTOO PALOR
2. THE SILHOUETTE FIGHT
3. THE ESCAPE FROM THE JAIL
4. THE FIGHT IN TRAFFIC
5. THE CLIMAX FIGHT
Starring in NINJA ASSASSIN is Rain, as the protagonist Raizo. Rain is best known as a member of a boy band in the Orient, and there's a cleaver tag line thrown his way in the jail scene. As an actor, Rain is a pretty good singer, but he does have the moves, I'll give him that (apologies to Christopher Walken). He works his magic with a cycle bladed manriki,gusari which makes for slick visuals when he whirls it in the Wachowski's patented bullet time. Rick Yune is Takeshi, one of the film's antagonists. Yune is no stranger to fans of marital arts films. His credits are numerous and impressive. He is in top form here. Sho Kosugi, who during the martial arts film craze of the 1970's made a name for himself by starring in a series of ninja films plays NINJA ASSASSIN's main villain. He is deliciously ruthless.
So while the story is a familiar one, it is penned "with kitchen prose and gutter rhymes" (apologies to Ian Anderson) in easily digestible fashion and enveloped in top line SFX in nearly non-stop flow. Excellent martial artists, coupled with excellent technicians, is it any wonder NINJA ASSASSIN is an FOF winner.
RATING FOR NINJA ASSASSIN = A
BFCA RATING = 10/10
WINNER OF THE FIST OF FIORE AWARD FOR 2009

NA reviews
To put it bluntly, a review for a film called Ninja Assassin is entirely unnecessary.
You may or may not be interested to know that the film is partly produced by the Wachowski brothers, of The Matrix trilogy fame. Or that Director James McTeigue also fronted V for Vendetta. Or that Rain, the famous South Korean singer, pop dancer and model, stars as Raizo, the titular ninja assassin.
No, you know whether or not you’re going to see this movie based off of the title alone, and nothing a reviewer, such as myself, will say is going to change your mind. The fact of the matter is that Ninja Assassin is exactly the sum of its part, nothing more and nothing less. Yes, it’s about a ninja assassin, who often assassinates more than one ninja at a time. Yes, there are plenty of action sequences on display. Yes, the dialogue suffers from cheesy writing and ham-fisted delivery. And yes, the story is only slightly thicker than paper.
But to be honest, this is one entertaining, if not over-the-top, movie. After the brazen pomposity of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, the marginally better G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, and the overblown mega-spectacle 2012, it’s nice to see a movie that is very clearly, and very simply, having fun with itself.
Director McTeigue knows what his audiences want, and he isn’t afraid to give it to them. Even before the title screen, at least ten bodies drop in an orgiastic haze of rapid gunfire, shurikens, and gushing, cartoonish blood. The rest of the film is pretty much no different.
The simple plot exists only as a pretense for the violence, and yet it is actually thicker than it has to be. There’s a shadowy clan that kidnaps children and trains them to become ninjas, and also two Europol operatives that want to destroy it. Some themes about family and betrayal are thrown around, but those really aren’t that important.
The biggest draw for this sort of film is the violence. There are some mighty fine sequences here, packed with lavish choreography and incredible cinematography. Unfortunately, all of the fights are essentially extensions of the same thing, only with different or enlarged set pieces. Still, they do remain enjoyable, even if there isn’t much variety.
An annoying problem with the action is the use of digital effects to enhance the images of swords and blades or to increase the amount of blood on screen; the scenes are impressive enough as it is, and these sorts of things are a bit distracting. This gives the film a certain feel that, combined with the ultra-fast pacing, is reminiscent of a video game. Also, there are some elements in the film that are just plain stupid, such as the whisper chatter the ninjas adopt when appearing out of the shadows.
But then again, Ninja Assassin won’t win an Oscar; instead, it will make millions of dollars. It is the last of the adult-themed action capers for the year, and if you know what you’re getting yourself into, you’ll probably enjoy yourself.
The verdict: Gratuitously violent and gleefully bloody, Ninja Assassin is the year’s guiltiest pleasure, even if it’s really just a one-trick pony.

[fan account] Met Rain in San Francisco
credit to sisi@rainlegend
Yesterday, I went to the Ninja assassin prescreening at SF Centre theater. To our surprise, Rain showed up before the movie started! Everyone was so excited to see him. Rain said hi to everyone and the crowded room was filled with all these screams shouting "Rain! Rain! Rain!" It was just awsome!
Then I learnt Rain's flight to HK and went to see him off today. I was waiting at the airport for him to show up and when I saw him with an assistant. It looked like he was in a hurry because he walked so fast. Finally he arrived at the security check line. So I went up to him and asked for his signature but his assistant said "No, no, no, we are in a hurry". At that moment the lovely voice of Rain said "It's Okay, It's Okay. Give it to me" I thanked him and he signed on my Rainism CD. After he signed my CD, he went to the security check line and I said bye to him. Rain is so sweet and I wish HK fans will give him a warm welcome!
