'Assassin's Creed' Considered One Of This Year's Most Disappointing Movie; Better Left As Video Game! [DETAILS HERE]

The movie "Assassin's Creed" did not sit well with various movie critics at all. It is even considered as one of the most disappointing movies of the year. The movie is even described as a joylessly overplotted slog.

According to Rotten Tomatoes, the movie "Assassin's Creed" only had a dismal and disappointing rating of 17 percent. The movie garnered four points out of a possible 10. This also had 119 reviews accounted for.

The movie which had its nationwide release on Dec. 21, 2016 proves that it may not have been good to watch before Christmas. The movie "Assassin's Creed" is arguably better made than most video games adaptations but unfortunately, the end result was rather disappointing, lacking in several aspects.

Matthew Lickona of San Diego Reader said that the movie "Assassin's Creed" is an overcast video game movie. As Darren Franich of Entertainment Weekly, he said that it mistakenly assumes that the plot is the most important element of its source material.

James Berardinelli of ReelViews said that it is obtuse, narratively incoherent, and ultimately frustrating. The movie stands as another example of how hard it is to make good mainstream movie out of a popular computer game.
