4K from HD

I have like a lot of you been seduced by the 4K Apple TV and the upgrades from HD to 4K . Firstly unless you have enough broadband speed , which I have, the best you will achieve is HD and if you haven’t got these titles on Blu-ray, then these are a good purchase. As well as having the enjoyment of watching them on your iPhone or iPads or a Mac, but note, in HD only.
The average 4K film to purchase on disc is over £20 , so it very appealing, to see advertised 4K films here for under £7.
I am enjoying the 4K experience and have purchased a few from the store. But and this a big but, most 4K films here won’t upscale your existing Blu-rays and secondly most are in letterbox format .
So I suggest don’t go cheap and try to upscale your existing Blu-ray Discs or purchase here a new 4K film, over a new Blu-ray Disc of the same price , because you think it’s going to show a better picture and because it’s cheaper than buying a 4K disk.
I’ve learned my lesson and will happily upgrade some of my old dvds to these cheap 4K films, but in future if I want true 4K and no letter box, then I will bite the bullet and fork out the expense for the disc.

Unlike the game. Even can’t beat the welcome video in the game.

It did not show the UBISOFT skills in this film. It just like an unsorted stuff put out in front of your eyes. However, it also missed a lot of details to let audiences keep up with.

Better than expected

Games to film are notoriously utterly diabolical, it is usually better to disembowel yourself with the nearest blunt object rather than watch a film made from a game. This is the contradiction that proves the rule correct.
My main worry was that this was going to CGId to heck. CGI being the worst thing that has every happened to film. Dodgy superimposure of earlier films usualy gives a better result than most films "attempts" at CGI. Assassin's Creed however has used the CGI in an understated manner. It is there but is not offenisve to your viewing pleasure.
So, two ticks there...but...
There are some elemenents that seem to drag on in the film, beyond what is necessary. Two scenes I thought "ok, this has been going on long enough - lets move on" but for the most part the story runs nicely and smoothly.
Last thing, the credits are 15 minutes long if you are looking at runtime for the film.

Great film for the fans of the franchise

I can see why people who have never played the games or read the books will be disappointed with this, but as a huge fan of the lore and franchise I thought it fitted into the series really well and was a really good watch. Yes, some elements were slightly altered for a more cinematic experience (the animus for example) but unit didn't detract from the story or action.

Unfortunately Very Disappointing

Great opportunity to bring this superb game into the big screen but it came out to be just a fuss. Very boring acting, couldn't watch the movie till the end, fell a sleep twice and gave up eventually. Fassbander is a great actor but this movie was a miss for him too. The movie has no plot no continuity no appeal very fake cgi for the viewer. Even the actors looks bored filming it. I love these type of movies but dreading the fact that I bought it the first day it came out and paid the full amount. Money down the drain. 😤

Spoiled by subtitles

I watched ww2 films in the 80's where the Germans spoke English. So why 30+ years later do I have to read subtitles when someone speaks Spanish? It does decrease the enjoyment of the film, but it's still worth watching.

Expected More..........

Film without direction which could and should have been great.
Jeremy Irons/Charlotte Rampling were badly cast and quite frankly helped to spoil the film.
Good special effects with rambling and dull story line
Not good at all considering how many people were involved in the making of this film

Finding it hard to think of something good to say.

I thought this film would be right up my street. But sadly it’s poor at best.
Save your money.

Energetic & enjoyable

Despite the fact that this film was panned by the critics, I enjoyed it. It's fast paced, clever & well acted. I thought Micheal Fassbender did a great job as Cal/Aguilar, with the very subtle differences, like eye colour, between the characters giving Aguilar a darker edge. The stunts also gave the film an authentic feel, especially the leap of faith which is epic & also my favourite part of the game series. Saying that I only played the 1st game so don't know the full story line which didn't matter at all as the conceptual nature of the film hangs together regardless. Equally I was glad to see it wasn't just a good v. evil movie with both templates & assassins being painted as human with all the frailties of that condition. Well worth the rental fee!

Make It Stop!

I couldn't get past the first 20 mins. Dreadful. Possibly watchable if you have diarrhoea on a long haul flight... but probably not.

Disappointed

Really disappointed in Assassins Creed I fort it would be a good film but they mad it a joke as that is really disappointing they turned a good Game in to a disappointing Film I was looking forward to this film :( can not believe it

Brilliant

People keep criticising this film but I think that it's great because it stuck to the same story as the game, finding the apple of Eden and stopping the templars, yes it was a bit slow but that's what it would be like if you were to play the games and just free roam whereas this film didn't leave free roam for Aguilar it had constant action and mission to do I Love This Movie

Just not quite..

Found the film to be slow going and slightly hard work. Also a lot of the action, both fighting and free running, was not of a standard that you'd expect in 2017. If you are going to avoid using CGI and effects it had better be because you can do it better for real, rather than it being for artistic purpose or marketing propaganda.

Assassin Creed

If I could have given it NO STARS I would have.
Subtitles most of the film.
Weak storyline. The action was good but the whole film was huge disappointment.
Save your money . I wish I had.

Waste of time

What a waste of time, talent and money. They must of spent mega bucks on that movies and they've got Fassbender, Cotillard, Irons and Gleeson...and yet what a mess. Something about an apple...which made absolutely no sense whatsoever. When will Hollywood learn that video games are popular because of their gameplay and not plot (Super Mario Bros anyone?). Now Bioshock has a plot better than most movies...why they don't make that a film is beyond me.

Watchable

Not the greatest film but unlike others I have not read the books or played the game so I probably enjoyed it better than the hardcore Creed fans. If you are the same as me then I would give this film a ago.

Big names fails to deliver

What a dull film, storyline weak and acting not to fabulous either, the action wasn't what I expected at all. Just like watching someone else play the game... yawn

Enjoyable

As someone mentioned, the violence and swearing mean this film should be a (15) not (12), but thats not the film's fault.
Aside from that, I have played assassin's Creed and while there are some notable differences, the film at least loosely follows the concept, even if it forgets that for the majority of the time, an assassin works alone.
The beginning's a bit slow and if you don't have a "loose" understanding of the assassin's creed genre, you may find yourself completely lost. I, on the other hand, enjoyed it immensely and hope there are more to come!

One of the best films I have seen for a long time!

I am aware of the games but do not play them, the concept, atmosphere, immersion is just stellar. Loved it from start to finish and hope this is the beginning of a long franchise in films. Epic...

Meh

It was way too violent, please don't waste your time on this,it is the worst film I've seen, I regret watching this so much, I think the swearing is a bit too much, 1f word used,not for children, this movie should be a 15 not a 12!

Very empty film

I don't agree with the previous reviewer at all.
I have played all the assassins creed games, which have slowly got worse as the franchise has gone on.
Ubisoft are great at not quite hitting the mark and unfortunately they've done the same with this film.
It's great if, like he said, you've played every game and are a massive fan boy. If you haven't, then you won't have a clue what's going on. They completely skip over the plot with text at the beginning. Don't really invest any time in character development or back story. I sat there wondering why I was supposed to care about any of the characters or why they even mattered.
Every fight scene was more like a choreographed martial arts film rather than a silent kill as with the games. And there were always 4 or 5 assassins involved, which in the games is a rarity. It's normally one man, working alone, in the shadows.
Even the great names in the cast couldn't save it.
Give it a watch by all means. But for me, was a poorly executed film.

Nothing Is True, Everything Is Permitted!

We work in the dark to serve the light. We are Assassins!
This movie is more of an homage to the game. The writing is similar, the plot is similar, and all the action are great and well done. The movie did a great job at recalling all the great moments in the Assassin's Creed series, and retrofitting them into this new plot. If you have played all the games, then this movie is perfect, it doesn't go into detail about the Creed or the Templars, you will have to fill in the blanks on your own. Some scenes are very powerful if you understand the back story and things that happened in the game and connect the reference. Basically this movie is a huge easter egg from the games. A bunch of references, and all in all it was fun watching it with a friend and pointing out which scenes were inspired by which game in the series. For example the ending is like a big homage to the original game trailer, the thing that started it all. Also if you are a veteran of the games, you wouldn't want to sit through the whole Assassin's vs Templars and their Creed explained for the fifth time anyways, this movie cut to the meat of the games, and I was glad that they did like this, not a lot of video games adaptation are bold enough to skip very key plot points. This movie is catered heavily on the true Assassin's Creed fans, I am for once am extremely happy I bought a movie ticket full price to go and support this production. It did not let me down and I am extremely proud of the cast and crew for their work on this movie!
