Movie Reviews of Shinobi - Heart Under BladeMovie Review: shinobi heart under blade Summary: 1 StarsGooda.
I live in Australia and I am not able to view Sinobi Heart under blade on my PS 3. Due to a regional code, I am really disappointed. Do you know if there is a code that I can enter so that I may view this DVD.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Movie Review: Love, Sacrifice, and The Way of the Warrior Summary: 5 StarsA story about two warriors (shinobi/ninja's) in love across enemy lines, forced to battle with the internal emotional conflict of love contending with duty...a tension which builds and builds until the climax. Epic stuff.
The fight choreography is excellent. Dynamic camera angles which constantly test your perception of up, down, and ground level as the characters likewise do the same. Combine that with twirly acrobatics and flowing weapons, and where the laws of physics fall short, CGI is more than willing to make up for it. Expect fight scenes to be very staccato and dynamic (think Advent Children and Matrix), not legato and fluid (i.e. Crouching Tiger and Hero). It's great for those with imagination, but not for anyone who can't get passed needing "realism"...it's live-action Anime. Enough said ;).
The characters are all unique, and like characters common in Anime/manga, each has a unique jutsu (or combat art). It is intriguing to see how their different jutsu's are pitted against each other in battle, and seeing which one comes out on top in the life and death struggle of war. The ultimate Jutsus, of course, are beheld by the two lovers, who must hold on desperately to their love across enemy lines.
Heh, and the "uh oh, you pissed off the wielder of the elite jutsu" scenes are awesome.
While this does have a lot of similarities of Romeo and Juliet, don't call it a remake of it, or a rip off, or even an interpretation of that story. It is an archetype, and archetypes exist for a reason (things we just love seeing,hearing,etc.) The story itself (which is based on a novel called The Kouga Ninja Scrolls) as far as I know has nothing to do with Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. I only mention this as an artist frustrated with people ALWAYS saying "that idea was taken from soandso". In reality, writers/artists/etc. with similar interests, upbringings, and lifestyles often produce similar ideas.
That said, I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. My only gripe is that I wish there were more fight scenes.
Movie Review: For those who like combat movie Summary: 4 StarsI give four stars cause I like this kind of historic japanese movie where de hearth story is so tragic in the middle of a battle! Dont' be affraid guys that is much more an action movie than a romantic one. But for those who dislike the fantasy in the combat, you will not like this movie: the shinobi (ninja) have specials abilities, according to the legend...
Movie Review: Mr Douglas Summary: 5 Starsthis movie is simply great, I like it as I like the book aswel, The story, the action, and the grafics are one of the best I have seen, The only sad part is that my favorite carecter is kill, still the movie is oweson.
Movie Review: Great Stuff Summary: 5 StarsGreat movie! Along the same line as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. But, I think this is much better. Would have like'd to see more fight seens, but oh well. I'd definitely recommend this to all. Get the Blu-Ray, it's worth the extra $$$.
