Our take
The Shadow Strays is a stylish assassin action movie: lots of killing, blood on the floor, and a crime plot that includes meth and an overdose. You get f-word language and a grim, relentless body count. Not a teen superhero picture. Older teens and adults who already watch hard action
Story (may spoil tone)
Skilled in the art of killing, a young assassin defies her mentor to save a boy from a ruthless crime syndicate — and she'll destroy anyone in her path.
