I am really looking forward to seeing the Wachowski’s Ninja Assassin. Mostly because Rain looks amazing in it and the action is the kind of jaw dropping visuals I crave.
A new set of promo clips showcasing the aforementioned action is online:
Now I disagree that Rain is even half as popular in North America than anyone seems to think he is, but that doesn’t detract from his physical talents. He is a gifted dancer and a very impressive martial artist and I cannot wait to see this on the big screen.

I pray to the Spirit of Sonny Chiba and Gordon Liu that this movie doesn;t get “Westernised” when editing fight scenes. Nothing worse than seeing a fight scene shot from 20 different camera angles cutting to a different one every 2 seconds. Learn from Hong Kong movies and use wide angle long takes.
Everything I heard and read from people that saw the secret showing of the whole movie at the San diego comic con had nothing but good things to say about it. They also emphasized it to be quite fantastically gory.
i don’t think this will be any good, but i’m very impressed with rain. going from a dancing pop star to a bad ass ninja, he seriously beefed up for this role.
Nice.
Funny, but I think the real successor to Bruce Lee might not be a Chinese martial artist but a Korean pop star. Rain is the man.
I really hope your joking. And if you are thats not funny.
Please don’t… Rain may be the next best thing. But being the succesor of the legend Bruce Lee he is not. It’s like saying Coldplay is the next Beatles or Kobe is the next Jordan. That had been playing for a long time and it’s getting tiresome.
Donnie Yen, Jet Li, Tony Jaa say differently.
Where and when did they say that? I think if they had really said that they just be insulting themselves or Bruce Lee himself.
Keeps your hopes low on this one. It’s not good at all.
You can’t say its not good. You haven’t seen it.
You may also keep your hopes low if you want. I wont be.
but the wachowskis are directors. how many movies has brukheimer directed?
and to me, that just takes credit away from mcteigue. who to me in 2 movies is a better director that the wachowskis who made 1 great movie then turned into a cash grabbing franchise that just sucked so much ace.
Considering they have produced this, Speed Racer, V for Vendetta and all the Matrix films, I would wager they are just as much Producers as they are directors.
this isnt a wachowski movie. James McTeigue directed it. they just produced.
hence a wachowski movie. You know when you watch a Bruckheimer movie what you are getting, same here.
