Just watched it. Horrible from start to finish.


Never played the games but i thought it would be a fun action movie with good, brutal action and some fun stunts.

Instead they went for switching between past and present every 1.5 seconds, topping it with a shaky cam and simply cutting the action to sh!t risking some serious epileptic shocks for the audience.
It was the tipical ADHD action nonsense for kids that forget every shot they saw a second ago.
Story was not there at all.
Fassbender dies, gets resurrected or something and literally a minute later he is doing some sh!t in this machine.
There was literally nothing to enjoy in this movie. It wasnt thrilling, there was no drama, no adventure, no stakes, no story, no characters, no fun, no interesting dialogue. just nothing.
WHat an emotionless, bland, boring piece of sh!t of a movie.

It is in that same category as Suicide Squad, only that i actually hated suicide squad because it was insulting, where Assasins Creed was only "there" and gone as soon as the credits rolled.

You just described the movie perfectly. I can't understand the positive reviews happening here, i honestly can't.

I loved it.

Have seen it twice now and hopefully will get to see it again next week at some point (unemployed so have time to spare and have unlimited cinema card)

Probably the film I've most enjoyed since the Revenant, although Passengers was great too.

Big shout out for the soundtrack as well, I'll be looking to get a copy of that. Awesome so it is!

Same here on all accounts, especially the soundtrack!! It comes out tomorrow on CD, I'll be picking it up. I usually buy my music digitally as standard MP3 files, but I'll be getting the CD so I can rip the tracks as uncompressed FLAC files (read: SUPER high-quality). XD

This sums up my thoughts perfectly. It was quite a bland movie

reply

No stunts no action !? What movie did you go watch the passengers? As a fan and someone who played the game i enjoyed it i was hoping for something better but it wasn't bad as you are describing it ...
