I can't be the only one...
I've played some of the games and enjoyed them, I also enjoyed the movie. Why all the hate it's not terrible!
shareI mean I think it's an okay movie. I'm not a huge fan of the games but have played enough. I though the action scenes really captured the feel of AC. But the story isn't as great as it should be. This movie could've been better. But I do agree that it's not as bad as people make it out to be. It's just okay.
sharePretty decent flick. I would recommend it.
When I'm good, I'm GOOD. When I'm bad, I'm BETTER.
No it sucked and the audience got lost in the story cause there was none...pay attention to detail as though it were real life and ask yourself why this and that is happening along with higher questions like why is that guy there and who is that and where did he come from?...you know thinking.

You know the STORY not merely Action crap with no rational explaination like the audience is just child watching cartoons like Blues clues...no thinking involved.
shareI agree with you. I've never played the game so maybe that had something to do with my opinion however I'm not familiar with the Underworld storyline either but I enjoyed that movie much more.
Why?
Principally because at the beginning of Underworld a voice over narration provided the audience who were unfamiliar with Underworld context in the way of a storyline, enabling me to come up to speed in less than 5 minutes. It made the movie much easier to follow even though I had no idea what the principal characters had done/experienced before I saw the movie.
AC on the other hand provided none.
Exactly, but doing that with supernatural is a given in feature films. AC couldn't do that because their characters are driven as man is and how can you some that up in a simple narration without giving away the story or there lack of?
shareYour on to something.
They obviously cut major scenes which told the back story of the Creed...Fessbender looked like Mutant-X (Scott and Gene Grey's hybrid child) who can be, do and fore see everything like a SEER. Most idiots with A.D.D. didn't question why or why 2nd assassin girl only with Fessbender...they Cut Lara and other characters entirely (Uncredited) out because of a insane producer who doesn't care about the franchise for personal anger issues and his goons harassed and bad mouthed actors who inquired why they their scenes got cut please write a letter to the film to help make this stop...power is in the people and fans!
Totally agree.
Sure, the plot towards the end got quite odd and paddled around in circles, but I went in expecting that to happen (as it seems to be par for the course with video game movies!)
But the film is quite enjoyable. It's not the greatest film ever made, sure, but it's FUN. It's like playing the game. The stunts are great. I liked the realness of having the scenes in the past spoken in Spanish, rather than the standard movie trope of all languages are English. The modern day stuff was kind of blah, but that's pretty much what the game is like, to be honest!
