We really thought this film would be the one to redeem the video game movie genre. The "Assassin’s Creed" franchise is ripe for the film treatment thanks to its complex mythology. And the fact that this spinoff featured both the director and stars of 2016’s "Macbeth" only boosted its potential. All of this only made the eventual failure of "Assassin’s Creed" that much harder to bear. The film looks great, but like so many other adaptations, it failed to channel the fun of the games.
