Viewing Notes

Not good. I guess I failed to watch the first installment or I just forgot it based on the opening flashback retelling of part one but it really doesn’t matter. A couple of Genin are on the run while being hunted by clans of ninja. More like a soap opera with ninja. Not one of Kenji Tanigaki’s better movies. Thankfully it’s only 75 minutes.
