Assassin Club (2023)
4/10
another action thriller B-movie
4 May 2023
Teen Jonna is left an orphan after a masked assassin kills her father. Seven years later, assassin Morgan (Henry Golding) is working for Caldwell (Sam Neill). His target is a human trafficker, but another mystery assassin shoots him. His school teacher girlfriend Sophie (Daniela Melchior) is clueless to his real work. He's looking to retire, but Caldwell has a final contract. The new targets are six other assassins and real bad guys. Falk (Noomi Rapace) is a creepy-eyed blonde killer.

This is just another action thriller B-movie. Henry Golding doesn't really have the intensity to lead this type of movie. It tries to steer into his nice guy personality by emphasizing that his targets are all bad guys. It doesn't really seem sensible and Sam Neill is acting too suspicious. The setup is poor and the writing is generally weak. The movie has a lot of competent action, but that's all it has. It's not logical or even fun. This B-movie just lays there without anything compelling.
