If you were to believe in the movies, then never ever teach your prized disciple anything. In fact, once any kid displays a genius level, and it crossed your mind that "hey, this could be the one to take over my ninja training business", DON'T. Better yet, kill him right now. Because they always come back and kick you in the balls. Always. Rain plays an awesomely talented ninja assassin of the Ozunu clan. The clan steals orphans and trains them to be deadly assassins for hire in political killings. They are so mysterious and invisible (something about wearing black and hiding in shadows), that the world at large thinks this whole ninja business is a myth. Rain (who's name in the movie is Raizo. Hahahaha) falls for a female ninja while in training, and when she's killed for trying to escape, he realises that life in the ninja clan is really suffocating and limiting. So, after his first somewhat successful mission, he turns on his clan, hides out, and seeks revenge on them by sabotaging their missions and killing them one after another.
You don't really need to know the other plotline, regarding 2 FBI agents' race to uncover the existence of ninjas. Actually, the plot on the whole is so thin it can be worn as a pair of sexy lingerie on Emma Watson. So leave your brains behind, and enjoy the bloodshed as one genius ninja rips apart his entire clan. Yeah, don't ask questions.
It really is an OK movie to watch. (while waiting for Avatar to come on screens.) Even if you don't believe me, you should believe in Ask a Ninja.
Actually, this video of Rain training and practising his moves are in a way more impressive than the rain soaked CGI infested fight scenes.
