Starring
Rain as Raizo
Naomie Harris as Mika Coretti
Rick Yune as Takeshi
AND the legendary Sho Kasugi as Ozunu

Plot:
Ninja Assassin follows Raizo (Rain), one of the deadliest assassins in the world. Taken from the streets as a child, he was transformed into a trained killer by the Ozunu Clan, a secret society whose very existence is considered a myth. But haunted by the merciless execution of his friend by the Clan, Raizo breaks free from them and vanishes. Now he waits, preparing to exact his revenge.

In Berlin, Europol agent Mika Coretti (Naomie Harris) has stumbled upon a money trail linking several political murders to an underground network of untraceable assassins from the Far East. Defying the orders of her superior, Ryan Maslow (Ben Miles), Mika digs into top secret agency files to learn the truth behind the murders. Her investigation makes her a target, and the Ozunu Clan sends a team of killers, led by the lethal Takeshi (Rick Yune), to silence her forever. Raizo saves Mika from her attackers, but he knows that the Clan will not rest until they are both eliminated. Now, entangled in a deadly game of cat and mouse through the streets of Europe, Raizo and Mika must trust one another if they hope to survive and finally bring down the elusive Ozunu Clan

Looks like it could be fun, if the action is good. Most of the movie looks cliche and doesn't inspire confidence in me, but I do love ninjas.

I get the feeling they're going for an 80's style balls-out ninja action movie but with modern action choreography

Starts out like Ong Bak 2... -1
with a mix of child face-bashing from 300... +1
Badass big boss taking a kusarigama to the face without flinching... +1
Inverted somersaults between two cars...+1
Kusarigamas in a 4-way fight... +1
Lots of shuriken action... +1

So far so good. But it's missing something...

Ah yes:

Did anyone go to this panel in last year's Comic-Con? The movie looked BAD-ASS and I don't think this trailer really does it justice. The action was exciting and it was gory as hell.

Plus, Sho Kosugi is in it, and I absolutely loved that guy when I was a kid.

I went to the screening at this years comic-con. It is one of the goriest movie ever. The first scene in the movie, you see people get sliced up in half and blood splattering everywhere. I think this movie serves the action very well.
