Amazon.com:
Equal parts Romeo and Juliet and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, Shinobi offers breathtaking cinematography, appealing actors, and ninjas. What more could a movie fan ask for? Released in 2005, Shinobi is set in 17th century Japan, which is dominated by two powerful clans. Oboro is a member of the Iga clan, while her lover Gennosuke is the son of the leader of the Koga clan. Both groups are comprised of expert ninjas who have developed skills unknown to most mortals. When Oboro and Gennosuke meet, they are unaware that by their birthrights, they are meant to hate--not love--each other. When the nefarious Shogun--eager to increase his own power by doing away with both clans--announces that each faction will send in five ninjas to fight to the death, Oboro and Gennosuke are sent in to battle against each other for the honor of their clans. Filled with action (including some computer-generated images to enhance the actors' warrior-like qualities) and romance, Shinobi has the makings of a sweeping epic. Though based on an anime series, the film succeeds as a stand-alone piece of work. Beautifully filmed and well-acted, the film is exciting and heartbreaking, and the viewer senses both hope and doom all the way through the finale. --Jae-Ha Kim

Entertaining. Follow's the Romeo and Juliet saga very closely but is somewhat more introspective. The heroine actually doubts the truth of her own humanity, extremely conflicted by what she thought was her destiny to be a warrior princess and her love for the prince of her enemy. It took the conviction and sacrifice of the hero to convice her that her tradition of violence had a hollow ring. So he's dead, she mourns her loss, and finds she needs to sacrifice herself for the safety of the two villages, ... Read More

Doesn't compare to the anime story of basilisk which this film was based on, but it's good in its own right

i believe my arcaid playing times have played a lot role in my high expectation from a movie called shinobi :D although the movie was not bad in itself because i kept my expectations very high it failed to meet them
but nevertheless i enjoyed cool coreographies, action sequences and general atmoshphere.

Gooda.
I live in Australia and I am not able to view Sinobi Heart under blade on my PS 3. Due to a regional code, I am really disappointed. Do you know if there is a code that I can enter so that I may view this DVD.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
many thanks

A story about two warriors (shinobi/ninja's) in love across enemy lines, forced to battle with the internal emotional conflict of love contending with duty...a tension which builds and builds until the climax. Epic stuff.
The fight choreography is excellent. Dynamic camera angles which constantly test your perception of up, down, and ground level as the characters likewise do the same. Combine that with twirly acrobatics and flowing weapons, and where the laws of physics fall short, CGI is ... Read More
