The movie is great. I love the story a lot. The action feels just right as well. This movie does seem a bit short. Maybe I didn't want the film to end or I was so attached to some of the characters. Shinobi is a must watch for Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon fans.

Shinobi looks and sounds absolutely great, but is lacking when it comes to story and action. The action scenes are entertaining, but I was hoping for more "real" fighting and less cgi assisted stuff. The cgi is actually the biggest problem, it simply doesn't look good. But if you can get past that, Shinobi turns into a very entertaining popcorn flick with great music, beautiful visuals and good actors.
This movie looks beautiful and feels very anime like. It's supposed to be based on the Basilisk manga. I enjoyed it but repeated viewings were not as good. Some parts dragged a bit and the ending was underwhelming.
