Review of The Assassin (2015) by Mark Olsen for Los Angeles Times — 15 Oct 2015
Combining Hou's patient, observant style with a historical martial arts tale, the film is a fascinating hybrid of craft, genre and story. Beautiful to look at and with deeply felt emotions, the film has a meditative aura punctured by sharp bouts of fighting.
