Jen’s Movie Review- American Assassin
Last sunday I went to watch ‘ American Assassin’. I went there without knowing what this movie is all about apart from the title. Well the title says it all as it did captured what is the movie is all about. Read my review below.
American Assassins
Trailer:
Sypnosis:
After the death of his girlfriend at the hands of Islamic terrorists, Mitch Rapp is drawn into the world of counter-terrorism, mentored by tough-as-nails former U.S. Navy SEAL Stan Hurley.
Verdict
3/5
Remember that boy from ‘Maze Runner’ series? He’s all grown up now and take on some serious movie. This movie starts quite emotional- some serious emotional stuff of unfortunate. Classic case of revenge movie. What are we teaching our kids now?
Not to punish this movie alone, but this kind of plot has been overly used. Revenge, bad boy turns to help government sort of story and good boy turns bad and terrorism, they are all in one.
On a positive note, this movie is filled with action and fights. One thing that is eye catching though is the nuclear sucking moment at the end. It must have been done on point and as an audience, it is when you were mesmerize of the visual beauty. Called me noob, I know nuclear bomb suppose to bring arsenal but i never imagine on what scale it will destruct the earth.
On acting, I am impressed with Michael Keaton (not a suprised, he is proffesional right?), but I am not with Dylan O’Brien. His acting looks like a rookie, let just say that he needs more time to be an Oscar contender (wooo that is just too soon to think of).
Am i the only person who thinks Dylan O’Brien looks like late Paul Walker?
Overall
Overall I think if you don’t have plan to watch this movie, you will be well. This is not the sort of movie that can change your life or make you feel better. If you love action movie though, go and buy the ticket.
