Christopher Lambert, the imposing French actor with the nasal whine best known to American audiences as Scottish swordsman Highlander, plays a rank amateur in The Hunted. He's an American businessman in Japan who lucks into a one-night stand with slinky Joan Chen and winds up a witness to her murder by a mysterious band of black-clad ninjas. Escaping not one but two attempts on his life by a little quick thinking and a lot of dumb luck, he winds up on a harrowing bullet train ride. As swarms of masked assassins decimate passengers in search of the elusive eyewitness, Lambert's laconic protector, rough-edged samurai Yoshio Harada, unleashes a martial arts frenzy of flashing swords in close quarters. His savior is not as altruistic as he seems, however. He just wants to lure mysterious ninja overlord John Lone out of hiding and into a fight to the death on Harada's island fortress, and Lambert is little more than live bait. Though it made few ripples at the box office, The Hunted is a slick and surprisingly smart thriller. Lone and Harada cut striking figures as the warriors following ancient codes in the modern world, and writer-director J.F. Lawton (screenwriter of Pretty Woman and Under Siege) gives them almost as much screen time as ostensible hero Lambert. The action scenes are furious and fast paced, lacking the grace and precision of real Japanese samurai adventures but full of clever flourishes. --Sean Axmaker

You can't go wrong with Christopher Lambert holding a sword...

Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2023

Verified Purchase

Obviously this is not the "serious" or "realistic" ninja movie many reviewers make it out to be. I think people say that because it is at least more serious and realistic than several popular ninja movies from a decade prior, like American Ninja or Enter the Ninja (both of which, by the way, I enjoy). But make no mistake; The Hunted is still quite outlandish and, at times, ridiculous. I mean, in one scene, a man breaks a samurai sword by slamming it against a rock. Another man breaks a sword with brute strength. If it were that easy to break these swords, they wouldn't hold up well in a battle would they? And that's just Exhibit A in my case against those who call this movie "realistic." There are many more exhibits I won't go into here. However! I say these things as a partial compliment. Frankly, I don't think a *truly* serious, practical, down-to-earch movie about ninjas in the modern world would be much fun to watch. Whereas THIS movie was a LOT of fun to watch! Christopher Lambert is his usual charismatic self and a joy. (He also has good comic timing when necessary.) And the story moves briskly from one action set piece to the next. The highlight, of course, is the massacre aboard the bullet train. I noticed another reviewer call it a "plot hole" because the secret ninja cult outs themselves to the world in that scene. I guess that reviewer missed the moment when the ninjas themselves say, "We will send a message to the world..." just before they begin the massacre. It would seem secrecy was no longer their goal. Quite the opposite! They were ready to begin a new era where the ninja reign supreme. Which I guess could serve as Exhibit B but, as I said, I won't go there. I'll just say I had a blast watching The Hunted and will gladly watch it again.

The most bad ass samurai versus the badest ninja, this if for you

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2022

Verified Purchase

This movie inspired me to write and develop a samurai video game for Activision, we rebranded it as Legend of the Five Rings, which I promoted at E3 back in 1998. I had to write that out because this film set my professional life in motion. I would never have gone into the interactive space without it.
So the picture quality is pretty good, not amazing but the best I've ever seen it. The soundtrack is epic, really epic. The reason I love this film so much is because it removes all of the mysticism and makes it authentic and believable. Christopher Lambert is his usual self, the stand outs are the ninja, his victim and the samurai who is looking for payback. The samurai character, to me, is the greatest example of what a modern day samurai would look and act like. The ninja is also adapted for modern day because he is ruthless but sophisticated. The fight scenes are as good as you'll ever see, you'll be watching the train scene over and over. This is such a hidden gem because the main cast just eats up the screen.
Definitely buy it if you've never seen it, no one is streaming it, plus it's good to keep a physical copy of such a rare film.

Underappreciated action movie

Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2009

Verified Purchase

I saw this film when it debuted in theaters, and I quite liked it, despite its flaws. It's premise is a fascinating one: the survival of an ancient ninja cult in modern Japan. This cult is led by a ninja of legendary skill and power called Kinjo. To create balance, this ninja cult must, of course, have an enemy, and in Japan, that enemy could only be samurai. So Takeda, scion of an ancient samurai family, and seemingly the protector of Paul Racine (the hapless French-American businessman who has stumbled into the midst of this conflict) appears to be one of the good guys. But alas, appearances can be deceiving. Takeda is not as noble as he seems. At first Takeda does genuinely seem to be one of the good guys. He conveys Racine to his island home, ostensibly to protect him from the Kinjo, who will be coming after him because Racine saw his face. It is eventually revealed that somewhere along the line, in his quest for the glory he will achieve by defeating Kinjo, Takeda has broken his moral compass. All others, even his own students are nothing more than fodder for his ambition to destroy Kinjo, and are considered by Takeda to be utterly expendable. Once Racine is safely ensconced within the samurai's island fortress, Takeda can barely conceal his contempt for the man (who unwittingly offered him insult by handling his katana -- the samurai's weapon that no other man is permitted to touch), and it quickly becomes apparent to Racine that not only is he not free to leave, but Takeda would probably kill him if he didn't need him to as bait for Kinjo. Worse, it turns out that Takeda coldly and deliberately endangered a train full of innocent commuters, many of whom were killed at the hands of Kinjo's forces. Watching all this unfold is Takeda's wife, well played by Yoko Shimada (whom American audiences will remember for her part in the miniseries "Shogun"). And viewers can see her growing alarm at her husband's increasingly obsessive and frankly evil behavior, but her loyalty keeps her by his side right to the end. I like this aspect of the film, and I like it that one of the seeming good guys turns out to be anything but -- it just goes to show that the enemy of one's enemy is not always one's friend.

The movie is a well paced, reasonably smart action/thriller, with good acting, great fight scenes, and a good premise. It's biggest flaw is a plot hole big enough to sail the battleship Yamato through. I refer to the slaughter on the bullet train. If scores of people in a modern, developed, highly industrialized country were systematically butchered by a small cadre of sword-wielding ninja assassins, working their way methodically back from the front of the train, it would make BIG headlines all over the world. This kind of attention is not the sort of thing any organization dedicated to stealth and secrecy would ever want to attract to itself in a million years. Still, apart from this glaring flaw, it was a highly entertaining movie, and well worth a look.

Cheesy but good

Kind of cheesy and all but something about this movie makes it a good time waster.
John Lone's ninja isn't very good ( Japanese sucks) but the choreography is very close to "legit" ninjutsu ( though note really well done). Takeda kicks ass and Lambert is, well, Lambert ( if you love him, you love him, if you don't, you don't).

Rare to find, good to keep.

Reviewed in Canada on September 2, 2014

I bought this for pure nostalgia. I had watched it hundreds of times on VHS to not see it again.
But, since there was no blu-ray release, I decided to get a DVD copy, anyhow.
How weird it felt to go down that road once more.

I was surprised to find out it was progressive and not interlaced.
It nearly fills up the whole screen (1.85:1 with marginal black bars).
The 5.1 AC3 track is in 448kbps and not 384 (the usual kbps for dated productions on DVD).
The scenes with non-English speaking parts have the Engilsh subtitles hardcoded into the video, so that's nice.

While the picture quality can look bland at some times, and heavily DNR'ed, you still have to be impressed with it as an old DVD for its time.
After some time passes, you forget DNR and slip back into a time where it was quite normal. And certainly better than VHS.

The only thing I would have to say against it, besides the DNR, is that I wish it was a dual-layer DVD instead of a single-layer disc.
If more featurettes were added (like videos instead of the printed screens), they might have been inclined to increase the picture quality for the main feature. There might have also been less need for DNR.

I still wait for the day a blu-ray release makes its way out.
The bullet train scene definitely needs the upgrade.
Kodo definitely needs the upgrade.

Slightly disappointed...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 6, 2019

...to find that this Shout Factory blu-ray seems to be the same cut print as the British version (i.e. with the opening attack on Racine concluding with one of the ninja hurling a shuriken, while the full sequence, with Racine taking the star in his hand and then being stabbed by a katana, is only seen in the solarized flashback sequence). Apart from that, this is a gorgeous print of a lively actioner made in the days before film-makers became pathologically terrified of colour photography.
