Critics Consensus: Assassin's Creed is arguably better made (and certainly better cast) than most video game adaptations; unfortunately, the CGI-fueled end result still is still a joylessly overplotted slog.

The worst way to adapt a video game

I had fun with “Assassin’s Creed” particularly with its wildly unique (and admittedly wacky) story. It also doesn’t hurt to have this level of acting talent in front of the camera.

Kurzel's brooding, internalized work often appears through a literal or figurative haze, which doesn't help matters.

Assassin's Creed is many things, and none of them good. Visually, it's the ugliest movie of 2016 - and keep in mind that I saw Robert De Niro's prosthetic penis in Dirty Grandpa.

Might be the best video-game adaptation there is. Certainly neck-and-neck with "Resident Evil: Extinction." There's a purity to how it doesn't pretend to characterize beyond narrative aims. It's 13% closing credits. It's kind of glorious, really.
