Review of The Assassin (2015) by Jgonclv — 26 May 2022
It's just laughable the pseudo intellectual opinions on this movie. An assassin who doesn't do its job for pointless and stupid reasons. Characters that just show up and disappear with no interest at all in the story. The script is dismally bad. Insipid and irrelevant fight scenes. I tried to watch it more than 20 times and always fall asleep, because it's that dreadful and boring. When I finally watched it wholy I just laughed in the end.
The cinematography is good, and that's the only reason the movie has a 1. The probable best example of how good the movie is, is that near the end there's a 1 minute or so scene of sheep inside a fence. Yep, it's intellectual and profound. Obnoxious movie, don't waste any minute of your life watching this. There are plenty of interesting wuxia movies, so just avoid this one.
