 'Ninja: Shadow of a Tear (2013) – Isaac Florentine.

The truly sensational sequel to 'Ninja' is a spectacularly kinetic old-school martial arts action epic with inventive, rapid-fire fight scenes, dynamically choreographed, and energetically performed by the very best in the business! Like 'Fist of Fury', and Jet Li's 'Fist of Legend' before it, 'Ninja: Shadow of a Tear' is a tough, take no-prisoners revenge thrill fest, in this instance deadly Ninja Casey Bowman (Scott Adkins) is compelled to avenge the death of his beloved wife Namiko (Mika Hijii), fuelled by a white-hot, preternatural rage Casey must courageously push his awesome fighting skills far beyond his previous limitations, as in this hyper-violent 'Game of Death', Ninja Casey must not only best his terrible grief but stoically battle a series of fierce, highly-trained fighters, this adrenaline-spiking action-fest culminating in one of recent martial arts cinema's most dazzlingly brutal fights, no quick-cut trickery, just deadly accurate, fearsome fists of fury making 'Ninja: Shadow of a Tear' one of the most authentic-looking Kung Fu extravaganzas since the golden rage of the mighty Shaw Brothers!
