Ninja Assassin (18)
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.You know something about kung-fu fighting? It's fast as lightning, and a little bit frightening.
But only a little bit; when the slicing and dicing and blood-spurting become as unstoppably frenzied as they do in the course of Ninja Assassin, one's instinct is less to take fright than take 40 winks and hope to wake up when it's all over. This stars Korean pop star Rain as the eponymous assassin, a renegade ninja on the run from his cruel mentor and his army of black-masked psychopaths.
Naomie Harris plays the Europol agent – with an American accent – who's uncovered the ancient sect and must now be saved from their merciless hands by our hero. Not exciting.
