I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

So my wife goes online and the films rated 4/5 stars on our local rental site, so she sends me out to get it. I wish I'd bothered to read the stars names. If I'd known Eric Roberts was the leading star, I would have never picked it up.After a confusingly stupid intro that would be an insult to the intelligence of anyone who has read a menu at Wendy's, ten minutes into the movie, we still have no idea what's going on. Other notable points, sometimes the video looks like it's shot with a cheap handycam, the sound is awful when they're inside, the acting is painful...there's basically zero plot, fine, I can deal with it (I knew it was an action movie when I rented it) , I'll fast forward to the action... 5 minutes fast forwarding at 30x speed.. no action... another 2 minutes, finally! an action scene! Back to normal speed, and... what a disappointment. There's no real fight, just some shadowing stuff and then a guy jumps through a candy glass door. Wow... take that Ninja assassin!! 30 seconds later, I'm off the couch and back on my way to the video store to demand a refund or replacement. The rental clerk says, we usually don't do exchanges.. I explain how bad it was to him and that I only watched about 15 minutes before turning it off, so he makes an exception. He says next time just say it's scratched or something. I think to myself, If I'd scratched the DVD, I would have been doing the world a huge favor!!

I really like Gail Kim. I think she is one of the sexiest, as well as most technically talented, female pro-wrestlers of her generation. So I have been waiting for this film for years (just remember that Pat Morita died in 2005 and do the math to realize how long its release has been delayed). When I finally started watching it, I thought the only possible reason for the very bad reviews it got was its unfortunate retitling from "Royal Kill" to "Ninja's Creed" on the DVD cover (it has nothing to do with ninjas). The first half of the movie plays like a low-budget but still slick variation on the "Terminator" myth: a mysterious noble warrior sent to protect the last hope of oppressed people from an unstoppable assassin whose only mission is to eliminate both. Sure, they botched Gail Kim's first action scene, the attack on Lalaine's house, but her next fight, against Alexander Wraith and some security guards, is a nice set-piece, where she gets to use some of her trademark wrestling moves. And then....the first big twist comes. The good thing about this twist is that you won't see it coming. The bad things are that a) it cancels out the movie up to that point, b) it makes no sense. But even if you're willing to go along with it, more similar twists soon follow until the film collapses completely into incoherence. If writer-director Babar Ahmed had focused more on trying to deliver a movie similar to the one suggested by the DVD cover, it probably would have turned out better than this overambitious mess. *1/2 out of 4.

I'd like to start by saying "LOL".Me and some of my friends had a lot of laughs watching this movie. Although it was not intended by the movie director I'm sure.This is one of those movies I had to write a little review of. It's filled with cheesy lines and more cheesy scenes. I don't know why the original title was "Ninja's creed. I didn't see anything ninjaish in this movie. I really don't understand "wonderyears123456" who has written a good review. Either he/she is part of the cast/crew, or not in his/her right state of mind. I was going to say pothead but I stopped there. It should not be summarized as "Very different", but "Very cheesy". Although I must admit that the music was in fact very catchy (maybe the only good in this movie). The famous actors "Eric Roberts" and "Pat Morita" aka Mr.Miyagi as "wonderyears123456" described, are not so very famous in my book. This movie should be nominated for the "cheesy movie award of the year" for poor writing, poor directing, poor acting and poor title.If your looking for a cheesy movie to laugh at, then this is a good choice. Otherwise don't wast your time.

In all reality what can I say. I honestly just saw this movie and decided to pick it up on an impulse. At first I was trying to understand the whole meaning of the movie was and the plot.Okay, I get the part where the main character I guess the "princess" is alive and is suppose to stay alive for some Himalayan Kingdom and her protector is suppose to save her. But then he turns bad and ends up killing her and then he becomes a lost soul and doesn't really know what is going on. Being that this film came out in 2009 and it was filmed earlier with Pat being in it and he passed away in 2005 kinda didn't make sense but after doing some research on the film. I would let it slide. Even though there was 2 famous actors and the acting was below mediocre. I do believe this film was in all honestly pretty bad.I guess it was a low budget film with low budget CGI, but I have seen films with better plots on a lower budget. I really don't understand what the idea was behind bringing out a film of this mess. But we will have to see what the director was hoping to accomplish in the future.Overall, I thought this movie was bad, the acting was really sub par, and I would have thought this would debut on some cable network, as it looked like it was intended for. As well as I thought this was really a waste of time, and money trying to capitalize on the whole ninja genre and momentum, which it really just failed horribly on.-Frankie
