“This is like the Saving Private Ryan for ninjas!” After having to sit through Ninja Assassin at Fantastic Fest, I was personally clamoring for some real ninja action — something that didn’t feel like a hyper-stylized cartoon. And something that didn’t star Rain. Luckily, my all-time favorite online entity Ask a Ninja is out to give us just that with their review of James McTeigue’s body-impaling opus. As you will see below, the real ninja’s take on the matter is far more hilarious than Rain’s bad acting, his threats of killing you if you don’t see it over New Moon are far more menacing, and in a way, we’re more attracted to him than we are Naomi Harris.

Alright, that last part isn’t exactly true. Either way, you should watch today’s Daily Diversion below, in which a real ninja reviews Ninja Assassin… hilariously.
