NINJA ASSASSIN (2009)
SYNOPSIS
Raizo is one of the deadliest assassins in the world.
Taken from the streets as a child, he was transformed
into a trained killer by the Ozunu Clan, a secret society
whose very existence is considered a myth. But
haunted by the merciless execution of his friend by the
Clan, Raizo breaks free from them…and vanishes. Now
he waits, preparing to exact his revenge. In Berlin,
Europol agent Mika Coretti has stumbled upon a money
trail linking several political murders to an
underground network of untraceable assassins from
the Far East. Defying the orders of her superior, Ryan
Maslow, Mika digs into top secret agency files to learn
the truth behind the murders. Her investigation makes
her a target, and the Ozunu Clan sends a team of
killers, led by the lethal Takeshi, to silence her forever.
Raizo saves Mika from her attackers, but he knows
that the Clan will not rest until they are both eliminated.
Now, entangled in a deadly game of cat and mouse
through the streets of Europe, Raizo and Mika must
trust one another if they hope to survive…and finally
bring down the elusive Ozunu Clan. --© Warner Bros
