Summary: Great anime but not the best
Review: When "Ninja Scroll" first came out, I thought it was the greatest anime since "Akira." Of course at this time I was really obsessed with anime and was hungry for anything. Last night I was bored and thought I'd watch a movie and decided to watch "Ninja Scroll." Viewing it this time I didn't think it was as great as I made it and many other anime fans made it out to be. By this, I don't mean it's bad. It's a great anime. It's got everything a good anime has but it doesn't go as deep as other anime films have gone and it is predictable and focused more on action than plot(although the plot is not that bad.) Basically, I highly recommend you rent it but viewing it for the second and third time, it isn't as great as the first viewing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Predictable, But Awsome
Review: Ninja Scroll is on the edge of being hentai, lots of gore and sex. It is also kinda predictable (Jubei meets a ninja chick, they fall in love, Jubei settles a score with an old rivel) but the story is very very interesting. even though it's very brutal, it has an awsome storyline, beautiful art work despite the strange Red/Orange blood. The dialoge is great but occasionally felt forced. I wasn't offended by the sex scenes, but some really wern't neccecary. Despite that, it has a bitter-sweet-heart-breaking ending. I'd reccomend this to any teenager anime fan, or some kids who are allowed to see R-rated movies

Summary: Perfect!
Review: I just bought and viewed this 10th anniversary edition and all I can say is..wow! The picture has never looked better, the 6.1 DTS has never sounded better. I've seen this movie countless times and they found a way to make me enjoy it even more than I had thought possible. The slipcase is also very smart looking and comes with a couple of neat little extras...I should also mention the extras on the dvd itself are pretty nifty too.
This is the movie that made me a big anime fan and still ranks as one of my all time favorites. If you enjoy martial arts action and adventure, I implore you to buy this dvd...you won't be dissapointed.

Summary: Asome Movie Hotttt!
Review: I had first saw the preview of this movie when I was watching Street Fighter Alpha:The Movie and I really had no interest in it. Then when I was at band rehearsal 2 years later my friend told me about it. He told me to rent it and guarenteed I'd love it. I rented it and he was right! I then got it for X-Mas and showed it to a bunch of my friends and they loved it. this truly is an adult anime movie. Watch out for a rape scene, a scene that was really unneccessary,more unecessary scenes and alot of gore and language. In my opinion it should be rated R. I hope this was helpful.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's about...time!
Review: ...

There really is nothing new that this movie brings to the table in terms of story. But that's not what makes it special. Yoshiaki-san has found a way to blend two popular genres, action and feudal japan, in the realm of anime. Let's face it, a movie of this graphic a magnitude just wouldn't cut it in live action. Plus, sometimes it's just more fun to watch it animated.

One warning, though. If you are faint of heart of stomach, or have a weak constitution all around, and haven't seen this movie, it is best that you keep it that way. ... this movie still stands as one of the most violent OAV to ever come out of Japan. Still, if you're feeling up to a little animated mayhem, I definitely suggest giving Ninja Scroll ninety minutes of your life. You shouldn't regret it.

Summary: Where's the scroll?
Review: wow, Ninja Scroll, tenth anniversary wow. Sorry.

I watch Ninja scroll religously, but feel guilty about it because it has very small amounts of redeeming Value. Between rape scenes and people getting stung to death, There seems to be very little time for Psychological chit chats or any other type of something that makes a movie worthy watching.

So why do I like it, you ask?

A good question. Maybe because it's so... so... COOL. Kawajiri Directs with style and originality, The way he can excecute any type of fight scene completely flawlessly is beyond me. He can create characters that you end up actually CARING about. PLus the animation is cool.

I'm sure the 10th anniversary version will have tons of reasons to buy it in the special features section, But since I don't own it(yet) I am unable to tell you about them.

Thank you for reading my endless Amounts of babble, I wasted 30 seconds of you life. ( 5 minutes of mine )

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: ONE OF THE BEST ANIMES IVE EVER SEEN!!
Review: This movie rocked!!!Iloved iits class samurai-type style action and story.The story's main character is Jubei a ninja for hire who gets an offer he literally cant refuse or he'll die from a fatal poison.He teams up with a beautiful Koga Ninja girl whose touch can kill and an old government spy to battle the 8 Devils of Kimon and the immortal Dark Shogun.The movie had so many cool gory and fast-paced action scenes(my favorite was when angry Jubei battled hordes of ninja on village rooftops).The bad guys were really cool and all had cool and freaky powers.The movie didnt have alot of drama but enough to make a movie out of cuz it had a cool plot.HOW MUCH BETTER CAN IT GET!!!
