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.

2/5

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

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

2/5

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.

3/5

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.

1.5/4

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

Just noticed the RT rating for this and thought it deserved a much better ranking. Not into video games and wasn’t aware until now it’s based on such. That said, for me, this was a good movie and just as enjoyable as Prometheus, thereto notedly, MF was, per usual, conveying his enigmatic presence on screen that made this film intriguing too. I can’t recall ever watching a movie he starred in that I didn’t enjoy and I thought the film included a good array of cast members who I found, as an onlooker seeking escapism, brought the film to life

Ok, this one's on me because I knew going in it would probably be stupid, but man how did it over deliver on that.

Assassin’s Creed, this movie is like mid and kind of underrated. But, Michael Fassbender does okay as the main character. But comparing to the amazing games like Black Flag and III. It did not work out. The action and the parkour was pretty solid. Overall, it is some flaws. But, I give Assassin’s Creed(2016) a 6.9/10 or 3.2/5 stars.
