Slightly too artistic for my taste (three storylines that join at one point) and a very simple plot, but good at capturing the mood and overall a good movie.

Wow. This is THE FILM to see. It's simply gripping and despite knowing how it will end it kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Masterful acting - it makes you feel with its characters. I definitely recommend.

Big gaps in plot, huge gaps in logic. Sorry, but I'm tired of "enemies have the IQ of about 35, are unable to plan ahead and always focus on one thing only". Two hours and thirty five minutes of wasted time. I never thought I would give a movie a zero as a rating, but here it is.

Well, I love the games, I liked the film. Yes, there is room for improvement, but still, it is a very good film. Truth be told, I went to the cinema with mixed feelings - quite frankly, I didn't like the idea of moving Animus, and the music in the trailer was terrible. Yet, I was pleasantly surprised. The moving Animus fits the film incredibly well. In a way it makes the training/improving skills of the descendant by Animus exposure much more believable. In my opinion, the film is more appreciated by those who know and play(ed) the games before. Why? For example, because my friend asked me after the end of the film: "Why was the bird there all the time?" Well, how to answer that...

Good film. It adds to the previous films. And I believe it is the first time in a Star Wars film the Alliance does not consist of only heroes who won't do any wrong. Suddenly, the characters are not black and white and I think it is a really nice change.

Definitely better than Batman vs Superman. Good acting, believable script, reasonable pacing to keep the spectator interested. All in all, a film worth watching.

The first half of this movie has severe issues with pacing. After 45 minutes into the movie I found myself checking the time on my watch - so thrilling was the movie. Then it got better. Not good. Better. Because truth to be told the whole movie has also (mild) problems with cohesion. On the other hand, the actors are reasonably good. Well, with exception of Jesse Eisenberg. But to be fair, I don't think his character was well written, he gave me sort of feeling that he was evil for the sake of being evil. My advice: Should you find yourself with time to kill, go and see the movie. It's not bad. It's not good. It's mediocre. But I doubt many will decide to see it for the second time. I know I won't.
