Shinobi: Heart Under Blade

There are movies on my Netflix queue that were added on a whim so long ago that I don’t remember why I added them in the first place.

The opening cards for Shinobi: Heart Under Blade tell me all I need to know:

  • A land of darkness
  • Hundreds of years ago
  • People with mystical powers
  • Constantly fighting

Sounds good to me. So far it’s silly fun, all the more silly because it seems to be taking itself seriously.

If it’s at all possible to put the following words together without losing my mind: I have now seen a magical ninja with a teased mullet in a fantasy period piece.

They’ve referenced Hattori Hanzo. Cool beans.

Yeah, it was a silly movie. Not too bad, and some cool ninja action.

Posted in movies.
