American Assassin Ratings & Reviews

  • Alyssia Madianna2d ago
    I actually liked it
  • 5nbksJuly 1, 2025
    It’s definitely a great movie
  • RyezooFebruary 15, 2025
    Frustrating film to watch. Had so much potential and it squanders it after the 30 minute mark. There's a lot to like about American Assassin. The performances from Dylan O'Brien and Michael Keaton are great. That's what keeps this movie chugging along. The opening for this is strong and had me looking forward to where things would go next. Unfortunately it was a one way ticket to generic land. The plot becomes absurd, yet extremely predictable. It jumps locations all over the place and is even boring at times. This could of been so much better.
