This taut thriller excels at world-building, sketching a secret ninja society with brutal economy. Its nonlinear structure, flipping between Raizo's brutal training and his present-day hunt, builds suspense and deepens his motive. A masterclass in pacing and visceral action, with a lean script that wastes no words.
