Film Review: Shinobi: Heart On sheet

Last film director Shinoyama Ten SHINOBI: Heart under blade is a testament to the movies epic can still be engaging and entertaining at all times. Given the assumption of Kenya Hirata (based on the novel by Yamada Futar) history of the ninja clans battle between a world traditions die in the attempt to move into a new house is cold was at once heartbreaking.
In the first part of the Tokugawa clan, who have lived in secret in two a sacred mountain will collide when the ruler of Japan decided it was time for the old traditions that finally put to rest. Oboro (Yukie Nakama), the granddaughter of Ogen, Iga clan matriarch of respected and Gennosuke (Jo Odagiri), the son of Danjo Koga, the leader of the powerful Koga clan has a secret romance, which is prohibited between the two clans at war. Seeing the two ninja clans as a threat to his regime of total domination, the infamous Nankobo Tenkai (Ishibashi Renji) plots to intensify the rivalry between the two clans with the highest of the five warriors battle each clan of each other in a competition that is ultimately to death. Feeling that something more casualty in the competition begins to see Gennosuke Tenkai but unwittingly sets in motion events that can not be undone. Gennosuke wants peace and tranquility in the clan but these are the families do when everything that has never trained his whole life is to fight?
SHINOBI is a film about progress and the price must be paid for this progress. While the movie theater is full of amazing and epic battle scenes used for such fantasy epics the true heart of this film is the relationship between its two main characters are caught between their love for others and duty to face today with the heads of their clans.
