More ninja movies on Your Stupid Minds! This time we attempted\xa0to find an underwhelming movie to put an end to this ninja episode massacre. We thought we had a perfect candidate with 1995\u2019s The Hunted starring Christopher Lambert in his first non-Highlander movie on YSM. As it turns out, this movie is great!
\nPaul Richie (Lambert) travels to Nagoya Japan on business and has a lovely date with Kirina (Joan Chen), a supposedly Japanese woman despite being obviously Chinese. After a date in the park listening to the traditional Japanese drummers, they go back to her hotel for a night of sultry hot tub sex. After Richie leaves, ninjas show up and murder Kirina. Richie tries to stop them, only to be hit with\xa0shurikens\xa0and nearly stabbed to death.\xa0After being attacked again in the hospital by ninjas led by the nefarious Kinjo (John Lone) who come to finish the job, he teams up with a samurai Ichiro (Yoshio Harada) and his wife Mieko (Yoko Shimada) to hide out on their secret samurai island to\xa0wait for Kinjo.
