What to Know

Critics Consensus

Assassin's Creed is arguably better made (and certainly better cast) than most video game adaptations; unfortunately, the CGI-fueled end result still is still a joylessly overplotted slog.

Although this story of multiple timelines provides some interesting moments, the cryptic, excessive, often extremely muffled dialogue makes the film excruciatingly hard to follow. Go to Full Review

I have never seen a group of A-list actors look and act so disinterested. Go to Full Review

One is left wracking brains as to why these talented people wasted so much time. It's not even the best videogame adaptation released in the past 12 months. Come back, Angry Birds. All is forgiven. Go to Full Review

I had fun with “Assassin’s Creed” particularly with its wildly unique (and admittedly wacky) story. It also doesn’t hurt to have this level of acting talent in front of the camera. Go to Full Review

Kurzel's brooding, internalized work often appears through a literal or figurative haze, which doesn't help matters. Go to Full Review

Jade Coyote 01/07/2022 good acting good action weak writing and story telling See more Nin ca d Nov 1 I found this movie good and enjoyable , let's be honest so called expert critics giving bad review doesn't mean that a movie is bad all the time. You have to watch it and decide for yourselves. Sometimes critics being over critical about a movie is like cutting a sapling cause its giving no value at that point of time and we miss out on a tree that gives many values someday. Watch and decide for yourselves. See more Frank R Sep 27 This movie was great. The people who say oh it wasn’t a good adaptation they’re whack and they don’t know what they’re talking about and probably know nothing about the video game. See more Tyler S. @WalterWhiteWalker Sep 15 Good action but the story lacks depth. This could of been much better See more Helene S Aug 28 when a third of the budget goes to your lead actor, let's just say don't expect a masterpiece. monotonous acting and 0 character development. i have played the games and they are way more enjoyable and charming than this slop. i love that in this world you can be paid 40 million dollars to produce a performance like this. what a time to be alive See more Ryan G Aug 13 The reviews are not the greatest but nor are the movies that have good reviews end up being soooo .... all I gotta say is for what they could work worth because of a video game series they did a great job See more Read all reviews
