#Assasin creed 1 movie

The ferocious beauty that Kurzel's visual style brings to the table is never given time to become the prepossessing masterpiece I know it could have become. The setting that I had most looked forward to fifteenth century Spain, at the height of the inquisition, barely gets 30 minutes of screen time, if that. He did great things in Macbeth, especially with the final confrontation, and he does similarly great things here.at least when the screenplay permits it. He has a gift in his manipulation of fog, dust, and light. So high, in fact, that I disregarded the overwhelming onslaught of hate that came in the wake of the movie's early screenings.

#Assasin creed 1 movie

My expectations for this movie were high. On top of that, Assassins Creed is also a reunion For Justin Kurzel, Michael Fassbender, and Marion Cotillard who all worked on the most recent version of Macbeth, which I absolutely loved. I'm not a huge fan of the games (I've only ever played IV) but as someone who is into history, I was pretty stoked for this movie. Its about historical conflicts, and cool dudes that run around taking out major targets whilst doing awesome parkour. вЂ¦ ExpandДЄssassins creed is a pretty straightforward franchise. Can't wait to see how the next one will go. But they got many thing right with the movie like the fight scenes that are just awesome to watch. Overall, it is a good movie, not bad at all for the first go, there's a lot of story build up for people who are not familiar with the franchise and I understand and hope it will change in the future movies. Lastly, the movie ends just like one of the games would with a great climactic ending and that helps to finish the movie off greatly. Fourth, they portrayed the bleeding effect very well, it's very much like what you'd find in one of the games. Third, the weapons they all use are exactly what you'd find in the assassin's creed universe which is great because all those cool kill moves you do in game you get to see on film which makes the movie flow with the game franchise and likewise the assassin's creed universe. There's friendly banter in the movie which will give you a chuckle or laugh but it's not a comedy and there isn't an excessive amount of it which is good that they kept to the serious tones of the movie. Second, the characters are likeable and they don't take away from the movie. From the build up as the assassin's creep through the crowd to the final sword blow you keep your eyes on it for every second and I love that. Oh baby, it is the best! It is EXACTLY what the franchise is about and they really nailed it. The sword fighting, the arrows flying, the throwing knifes in mid-air the rooftop jumps. Now let's do the positives because there is a lot this movie does well First off the fight scenes are amazing, very well choreographed. Third, honestly, I with the movie was a bit longer, I think they wont need it with more iterations but more time could have meant more animus time to see the Spanish inquisition and fight scenes.

Second, they take a lot of time outside the animus to explain the story and plot so the viewer knows what it's about, for seasoned players of the franchise we all know what it's about but for a newcomer to it they need the story, it's a necessity but it's still a little annoying that the story has to be re-told again, hopefully it wont be that way in the second film (I'm assuming they will make another).

It's very annoying and after the first fight in the animus we wouldn't have to see it again because we understand he moves in life while in the simulation. Here comes a fight scene, going good and quick 2 second cut to show he's still in, more fight, cut to machine, more fight, cut to machine, etc. I could look past this if the movie didn't remind you multiple times each fight scene in the animus that he is strapped to some machine on the outside. As the trailer shows they portray him in this large machine which has never appeared in any of the games. Let's start with what they missed then we'll end with what they did good For starters, the way they portray the animus in the movie is not what I would have expected or wanted. I had to create an account to defend the movie because I feel it gets a bad wrap even though it's a good start for Ubisoft deciding to take one of it's biggest franchises and go to the big screen with it. There are positives and negatives to this movie as one would assume, there are with any movie.
