Review of Ninja Scroll (1993) by Alexander R — 10 Sep 2010
An anime classic. The animation is vey stylized but all the charcaters have great attention to detail, for example the mass of the charactor shift natually almost lile good rotoscoping (animation done by tracing over live action shots) but better.
It starts out really good but slows down towards the end. I made a mistake watching this with my sons. The violence is unhinged from the beginning, when it got to the part where the Stone creature knocked out the beautiful ninja Kagero and rippers her clothes off and was licking her, I said boys this movies for Dada only.
This movie is brutal in every sense of the word. If it was live action it would be NC-17+. A definite must see for adult anime fans.
