Codename 13, a 17-year-old trained assassin is under suspension because of a sloppy mission in Japan. The girl built a conscience when she met Monji, an 11 year old boy who lost his mother to a crime syndicate. When Monji is captured, 13 is hellbent on setting a path of destruction to rescue the boy, including going against her mentor and the organization who hires her, the Shadow.

As is often the case with Indonesian action films, The Shadow Strays is exceptionally violent. Immediately, this will shut out a portion of viewers, who find the whole thing far too gratuitously bloody. The story is the by now, well established, girl boss proposition. That said, everything is done so well, its actually quite watchable. Martial art fight scenes, gun play and more are beautifully choreographed and highly creative. Acting is competent too, with very relatable main characters you come to sympathise with. In summary, if you can get past the extreme violence, this is quite watchable.Take a look but only if you have a strong stomach.
