adonis98-743-186503 Ninjitsu master Casey is back and out for revenge when his pregnant wife is murdered. Ninja 2: Shadow of a Tear has it's moments but i completely lost interest when Namiko was killed i'm so sick and tired watching really good characters dying in dumb sequels and this film is not exception sure Scott Adkins does a pretty good job once again and i thought that Kane Kosugi the son of Sho Kosugi would have made the movie so much better but it didn't it actually made it worse it tried to be as good as the first film but it failed in every single level and it shouldn't got a 6.2 out of 10 the first one is way way better in my opinion.
George Clarke I have long been a fan of Isaac Florentine, for many many years now.His films always aim to grab that feel from the 80's classics of Hong Kong cinema, yet are often marred by weak story lines and silly acting.That said, one thing that always stands out is the fight scenes - and none more so than this awesome sequel, Ninja: Shadow Of A Tear!I liked the first Ninja movie and thought Scott Adkins, as always, proved his worth as a martial arts actor. There was just a small hint of 'meh' that surrounded the first causing it to be slightly forgettable.It seems though, with Shadow Of A Tear, that hint of 'meh' has been thrown to the side!Again, acting and story line plays second fiddle to what is possibly some of the best fight scenes ever put to film in a Western production!Beautifully shot, crisp with amazing choreography, I felt that Ninja: Shadow Of A Tear stands punches and kicks above the over-rated hit, The Raid...
FlashCallahan .......To the late eighties and early nineties when direct to video action movies were big Business, and made household names of Van Damme, Seagal, Blanks, Rothrock and many more.Casey Bowmans life is shattered by a savage act of violence, when his wife is murdered. Vowing revenge, he tracks the killer to Rangoon with the help of a wise sensei. His only clues: a series of victims whose necks bear the distinctive mark of strangulation by barbed wire. Casey must sharpen his battle skills to the next level, as he must finally become an invisible warrior worthy of the name Ninja. But just when his prey is cornered, an unexpected twist shows Casey that his battle is only beginning: he truly can trust no one.....The first movie in my opinion was a load of old rubbish, the action was mundane, and it looked very bad. This is something else though, and Adkins has really stepped up a few gears since that movie. Assassination games, USol day of reckoning, Expendables 2 have really shown his skill, and this movie escalates that to another level.The movie is just Death Wish meets Commando by way of First Blood part 2, and the action is relentless from beginning to end.If you loved renting out American Kickboxer, or any film that ended with Kickboxer, claws, or Ninja in the title, then this will be for you.This could be the turning point for direct to DVD action movies.
Paul Magne Haakonsen "Ninja: Shadow of a Tear" was nowhere near as interesting as the first of these "Ninja" movies turned out to be. The story told in this movie turned out to be trivial, predictable, cliché and not really all that interesting.That being said, don't get me wrong. The movie is not all bad. The fight scenes, well most of them anyway, were nicely choreographed and executed on the screen. There were some rather impressive moments here and there, especially during the hotel scene.But the movie just overall suffered from its lack of a meaningful storyline. This was basically a revenge movie to avenge the death of his pregnant wife, and one single guy taken on countless enemies. Very 1980's storyline, and it could have been much better.The movie does offer lots of action and does it in a good way. But it is hardly enough to sustain the movie on itself, as there is only so much you can manage to get out of mindless action.Acting-wise, well, this is a ninja movie - although there were surprisingly few ninjas in the movie - so you know what you are getting yourself into here. Just disconnect your mind, lean back and enjoy the mindless action here.There are far better ninja movies available, both new and old.
