Reviews

As many others I played the Assassins Creed games and was looking forward to this film however it is safe to say that I was extremely disappointed. No matter if you have played the games or not this film was awful. First things first the script is poor. If I hadn't played the games I would have struggled to understand many of the references. The script is vague and confusing in parts which led to a man who sat in front of me leaving half way through (I wish I did the same). Although I am a fan of Michael Fassbender the quality of the writing meant he was wasted in this film. When it comes to the special effects the use of CGI was average. The fighting sequences weren't as good as I expected as it wasn't clear what was happening. The overall story was disappointing and the fact that there will be a sequel made it even more disappointing. I hate to compare but the games were good and the film was rubbish. I would not advise wasting time watching this. Please. For your sake.

I thought this film was relatively far fetched however, easy to get into if watched from the start. I thought the story line and quality of acting was good and really got me into the film. It is quite complicated and requires full attention if you are to follow and understand the story line.

However, the whole reason for me writing this review was to share my disappointment of the ending. I found the ending of this film awful and gave the story line no point. If this film were to have a good ending I would have given it a much higher rating but I felt that it was contradicting of the story line.

I would recommend this film for people who like futuristic and sci-fi films but if not this film isn't for you.
