I just left the premiere of this great short movie, and i am speechless, great movie that takes us around the world to the japanese culture, it really is a voyage of discovery, the portuguese ninja, lives with a geisha girlfriend in Japan, until the day, that a japanese messenger comes to him, with a mission, after that everything changes, his quest for the golden key, takes him on journey to uncover the truth behind this powerfull object.
Anyway, the cast of the movie is good, and it is refreshing to see new faces to the martial arts scene. The dialogue is straight to the point, no clumsy, half-hearted dialogue going on here, which also helps the movie to keep going.
So if you like ninja movies and action movies, this is definitely a movie you cannot allow to miss out on, it´s 10/10 for me.

Truly i was expecting a more story lined movie, but kinda figured out that it wasn't the way it was heading after about the first five minutes.. hahaha..;
Though i'm a more 'story' fan, i must admit i had a fun time watching this.
The ninja in this movie is an elite warrior, he kills, and he kills :)
But my favorite was Mr. Kane amd the henchman Venomous, the fight action is often and quite well choreographed.
Now i´ll have to wait for the sequel to see it´s conclusion. The cast is okay, but overall you should enjoy this modern day action hit.

This movie was worth the wait for me, since Constantino Filmes, announced it.
I was looking forward to see it, last night the wait was over, and i really loved it, the special effects in this movie were awesome, incredible job for this low budget pearl.
To me ninjitsu is mystical and spellbinding, that way, you can work on your stealth. So the power of the kobudera, gives this ninja all the energy he needs to vanquish evil. Loved the geisha, the sets in Japan, the acting.
Overall it´s 8/10

The movie shows that when you are a target for the ninjas, you are in deep trouble, fighting back is no use because, as the movie shows, Ninja are just too quick and you can't reason with them either because they are programmed to destroy their target.
But what's even worse is to be an exiled ninja because once you become a ninja, you're a ninja for life, no exceptions.
They don't waste time. They go in, do the job, and get out.
This movie has all this, love it, the locations are amazing, what can i say, it is what it is, a love letter to all ninja fans.
Entertaining, satisfying, and an instant classic worthy of the top shelf in any Blu-Ray collection.

This a violent and gripping story with plenty of noisy action and struggles in a comic-book style . It's a mindless but enjoyable story, the soundtrack is the best, i´ve seen in a while, it´s great to see a portuguese ninja take on an evil organization, i will buy this on dvd, as soon as it arrives in stores.
