It’s sad to see Bruce Willis in his final film, lacking his trademark twinkle...

The multinational cast seems assembled for reasons other than serving defined character needs. None of them are able to rise above the vague material.

Keith & the Movies

“Assassin” is plagued by bad performances throughout and the action never (and I do mean never) gets to room temperature. But it’s the script that turns out to be the biggest liability.

Rated: 1.5/5

One Guy's Opinion

It’s disheartening that such a murky, cheesy piece represents the swan song for the man who embodied action heroes like John McClane and made first-rate contributions to films like “The Sixth Sense” and “Moonrise Kingdom.”

Rated: D

trop lent pas d'histoire. mal jouer. Un faut film cérébral. Encore un mauvais film de Bruce Willis, qui joue depuis 10 ans dans des films sans histoire.

I did not expect much, so I was pleasantly surprised with a less usual story and nice ending.

Assassin is a sci-fi action thriller that fails to have any thrilling action and just has such a rushed story that was barely thought out to make sense. This movie stars Bruce Willis, Dominic Purcell, Nomzamo Mbath in the main roles and they all are great with what they are given, but the writing and story development is just soo bad that it makes it hard to enjoy these actors in their roles, especially since this is Bruce Willis's last performance. Overall, Assassin is a movie that should've been killed off in pre-production. D-

I hope Bruce Willis made enough money to last because this was a real stinker. Silly plot, mediocre acting and a twist that looked like they purchased it on sale.
