A god-awful video game adaption that cost over $100 million stealthily sneaks onto the Netflix charts

Ironically, this film tied with another assassin movie on Netflix.

when video game movies used to suck? They attempted to capture the spirit of the video games by somewhat replicating them, but ended up missing the mark.

While both films received low reviews from critics, according to Rotten Tomatoes, it seems like audiences enjoyed The Mother more since it earned an average score of 63 percent. Meanwhile, audiences gave Assassin’s Creed a low score of 42 percent. Were people watching these two films and wondering if they had any similarities, or did they just want a kick from some campy and terribly produced video game adaptations since The Legend of Zelda movie isn’t set in stone just yet?

Assassin’s Creed is a dystopian science-fiction action film, starring Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, and Jeremy Irons. The film tried to capture the spirit of the games by showcasing the use of technology to relive the life of an assassin in order to find the location of the Apple of Eden. The film has a ton of references to the first few games, but unfortunately, it didn’t hit the mark since it earned $10 million during its domestic opening and $240 million in the worldwide box office.

If you’re still keen to see this film adaptation of this video game franchise, Assassin’s Creed is still available to stream on Netflix.
