Pretty much. Man with Assassin heritage and an unconventional life for it is kidnapped by Abstergo to relive in the Animus memories of an ancestor from a time period with heavy religious significance to locate an Apple of Eden.
Funny thing about your suggestion: THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THE VIDEO GAME DID. The original Assassin's Creed game was primarily the story of Altair, a hot-headed assassin who jeopardised the Brotherhood by breaking the titular Assassin's Creed (Stay your blade from the flesh of an innocent, Hide in plain sight, and Never compromise the Brotherhood), and is demoted by their leader and sent on missions to regain his Elder status whilst investigating an ancient conspiracy involving an artifact called the Apple of Eden. The present day stuff is a framing device where an ex-assassin named Desmond is kidnapped and forced to relive Altair's memories for a mysterious organisation called Abstergo. So hyper-focusing on what was a mere framing device that provided context for stuff like the aesthetic and HUD was ultimately the movie's death sentence. If they were to do an Assassin's Creed movie, they should've just focused on the Ancestor plot and made the Animus stuff a framing device, like The Mask of Zorro mashed up with National Treasure. But alas...
This movie honestly was pretty disappointing as an Assassin’s Creed fan. One of the most important things about the games’ stories is that you have to develop both the protagonist in the modern day and the historical one. Instead they focused on the modern day protagonist but barely gave enough development to him. Honestly I think this would have done much better as a series to give time to flesh things out more. Maybe Netflix can pull something off, but with how Ubisoft has handled the modern franchise I doubt it’ll gain the attention from fans it would have a decade ago.
It would work better as starting in ancient times then slowly working its way up to modern times; instead of having a dueled storyline. It works in the games because of the time they give it to flesh out everything. But for general viewers, you have to start basic.
So the story puts you in a cool ancient setting but focuses on a boring present day adventure with abstergo and a boring character... Just like the games. Seems like a faithful adaptation 😂
I hate every moment of present day in these games so obviously they would make a movie where that is the main focus. Guess that's why Ubisoft had a black Samurai and a Star Wars game right when fan interest is at an all time low. It's like a competitor's spy is hiding at Ubisoft and telling them the exact wrong thing to do
I’m so glad I didn’t go see this shitshow in theaters. It’s nearly unwatchably bad. Seeing how a major complaint of the games is that the scenes in the present are boring I don’t know what possessed them to set most of the movie in it. Also, the idea of cutting to the animus in the middle of action scenes to show the character in the present doing the same moves was profoundly stupid. It adds nothing interesting, it disrupts the flow of the action and it just looks dumb. This movie deserved to fail and I’m glad that it did.
If I had a nickel for every time a Hollywood studio tried to adapt a Ubisoft video game franchise about a middle eastern man featuring parkour and time travel with a white guy cast as the lead, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice...
I was wondering when you’d cover this film! I remember being so excited that we were getting Assassin’s Creed on the big screen, having played the games since I was about 5 years old. However I, like every other moviegoer, was majorly disappointed. I second your point about the action suddenly falling flat from the incessant switching between the past and present day. It’s such a shame, as I think this could’ve been such a great film if they’d just cut out so much of the present day storyline and focused on the past.
It’s a shame the movie turned off so many people because the novelisation does develop the characters and give more context to the situations the film presents. It also has four short stories focusing on the other prisoners and their own Animus experiences. It’s remarkable how much effort went into tying this film into the game canon. The four aforementioned characters all have previously established ancestors from the games, or an animated film, and the protagonist of the 2014 game makes a cameo as one of Cal’s ancestors. The next released game also contains information that ties the film into the main canon, where that game’s modern day protagonist had an uncredited hand in development on the film’s Animus as well as an at best strained friendship with Sophia Rikkin. The film’s Animus would be adapted into the games, as part of an Isu device for the climax of Valhalla’s storyline. The games as a medium to tell Cal’s story further could have been promising, or even in comic form.
I remember seeing it in the movies and I kinda get what they were going for. They tried too hard to establish a link between a modern world and the historical protagonist. In the source material it was very gradual and not pushed, if we are to talk about Ezio trilogy it was done in span of 3 30-40 hour games with both in-animus conversations and clues left by other animus users and modern world out-of animus exposition. You weren't ripped out of narrative constantly, but only in the most crucial story moments where historical events flowed in to our day events. Link between Ezio's and Desmond's stories was very imortant to them both, and that's why getting out of animus didn't feel so bad as it did in other instances of the series. If they were to make this into a series I would love to see first movie focusing more on the historic part of the story establishing the rivalry between assassins and templars delving more into rules and lore of the universe and pacing it more slowly. And I really believe that if that was the case and the first movie was a little slower and more focused for it's own sake It would have a chance to be a great franchize loved by both fans and regular movie goers. Perhaps there is still hope for an assassin's creed adaptation. With how good videogames are doing on the screen in the modern day and age maybe we will se some kind of soft reboot or a TV-series based on the game. I think it still holds tons of potential as an adaptation.
solid content for a new-ish channel 👌I've now watched all your videos (and mostly enjoyed them) 👍 Couple of constructive criticisms: you often reuse the same word (e.g. "production" or "lead" or "terrible") multiple times in the same sentence or in quick succession. Swapping these with synonyms will help the script flow better and make everything stronger. Also, your mic needs a pop filter because the plosives are quite loud and distracting. Tightening these up would help elevate what is (generally) some decent analysis. Hope these suggestions don't come across the wrong way. You're doing a good job!
I personally think it would’ve been great if they had just made it like 3 and a half hours and spend like two thirds of the movie on the historical adventure, and also actually involve the assassins creed. yes it’s in the movie, but it’s not really devilled into or pondered on by the characters, it’s not really relevant at all outside the assassins wanting to stop the Templars, which is such a simplification of what the assassins stand for The film lacks the slow moments of reflection that are some of the most impactful moments of the game, instead making basically every memory we see just be an action set peace with some plot dashed on top. And the modern day is nonsensical, the fact that abstergo leaves weapons around in display cabinets that the assassins have easy access to is ridiculous, not to mention having them stored as a group would make the loss of animus test subjects if an escape attempt was made disastrous. Also they complete lack of mystery to whats going on at abstergo is ridiculous, they just state straight up to the protagonist that they are the same group his ancestors fought so hard to stop, and then they make him see through the eyes of his ancestor that hates the Templars, it’s ridiculous.
I remember going to the movies for this film. The funniest thing is, it seemed like the universe tried to stop me from watching it. I'd been a huge fan of the games, and was hyped for the movie. When it came out I was abroad , and as a teen I had to first really convince the adults to let me go and watch it when we were tight on time. Then, it occured to me that the ticket price was much higher than it would've been in my country, so it was almost a deal breaker. But I was very determined to watch it, so I went there with a peer, and... They refused to sell us the tickets because we weren't old enough. I was really upset, but then a random adult guy saw us, and decided to buy tickets for us. After all that I wouldn't say I hated the movie, but it probably wasn't worth it
I truly believe Kurzel got shafted with this cause his other films, Macbeth and True History are so so so good, especially True History. It could've been one of the greatest if not for Studio meddling.
As a long time Assassins Creed fan, this movie was the worst thing I’ve ever saw. It doesn’t understand why people love Assassins Creed. The main character (both present and past) are so bland and under written. They don’t have Altair’s conviction, Ezio’s growth, Aron’s snark, or really, anything an AC character should have. It doesn’t ulitlize cool concepts like the animus, Isu, or anything like that. Hell, they didn’t even give the past character a historical sidekick. Every game has at least one big name historical figure who becomes friends with the lead. Leonardo Da Vinci, George Washington, Napoleon, Blackbeard. This movie is set during the Spanish Inquistuon, you couldn’t have made god damn Columbus a character.
I remember seeing this in theaters and thinking the same, it had some pretty good historic sets and action sequences, bogged down by a bland story and a weird need to continuously pull you out of the action and back to the even more bland and boring “present” setting. Ironically that makes it the perfect adaptation of an Assassins Creed game 😅 (and I love this series)
You dont have to know shit about the games to know that the choice to have most of the runtime, fights included, be set in the modern day portions. I only watched it once, but im still pretty sure the majority of the final action sequence is just fassbender jumping around in that stupid version of the animus. If they had just had the animus like in the games, a table they lay on, immobilized, that wouldnt have even been an option as a fuck up smh.
'most of the criticism is focused on the... bland characters, and boring, overcomplicated plot' Anyway, enough about the games. What did people think of the movie?
Y'know all this discourse around Prince of Persia now is really weird to me, cos I distinctly remember the narrative at the time talking about how it broke the video game curse, and that finally there was a good video game movie. Just weird to see how perception changes I guess.
A narrative like III’s Animus sequences could have been great for a film as that’s the first game to add proper nuance to the Assassin/Templar conflict rather than an Assassin Good Templar Bad narrative the Altaïr and Ezio games presented. Indeed, an adaptation of III might have held a lot of appeal for the setting, although the modern day would need to be heavily reworked since the game had it as the climax of a story arc running several games at that point (which wouldn’t hurt actually, since the modern day needed enough attention that it drew away from Connor’s story a bit too much). It’s not the first time an adaptation has recontextualised the modern day, the Black Flag manga adaptation Awakening used a completely different descendant of Edward with an all new modern day story thread. You could still have it in canon by saying it’s either a descendant whose bloodline branched off from Desmond’s: or it’s using the genetic information Abstergo harvested at the end of III (although that rabbit hole risks delving into too much game lore to balance game fans and people new to the franchise).
I’m a massive assassins creed fan, I think the movie was okay. I’m not sure why they would focus on the modern day stuff when we play these games for the historical stuff. I think the best parts of this movie was the Spanish Inquisition sections as it felt like games, which is sadly 20-30% of movie
Why did they make a movie based on a character that doesn't exist in the game? Thats why it faild, fans wanted to see an ezio or an Altair come to life not some new guy we're not invested in
The problem would then be that you’d need to use the character in a way that wouldn’t rely on the games for key information and balance that without doing too much exposition to turn off fans of the characters. At this point the Ezio Collection hadn’t been ported for the PS4 and the first game still hasn’t received a new release since the Windows version.
That’s not really the “break even point.” Studios intentionally inflate the cost of making movies for that reason. If a movie isn’t going to be a massive success it benefits them to say “we didn’t recoup,” even if in reality it probably was a net profit. Even movies that are box office bombs might actually have made a bit of money but it isn’t financially beneficial to point it out for a studio.
Ubisoft made a live action short film series acting as a prologue to Assassin's Creed 2. All they had to do is more of that, and instead made a completely forgettable movie.
I'm not joking when I say me and my friends fell asleep watching the movie one by one on DVD. It was just so damn boring and we just kept wondering why the hell didn't they just use the ezio games and go from there
Yeah... as a big fan of the games, I hated it as much as you, and for the same reasons. It was an absolutely dreadful movie on just about every level. If anything, its lore adherence was one of its biggest problems. They were trying so hard to shoehorn it into the absurdly overstuffed series canon, which is a lot of the reason all the exposition scenes are so incoherent. Although you know what maybe the biggest tragedy is? It featured the longest free-dive in movie history, and then put such obviously fake CGI all around it so that nobody watching could tell that the stunt was real. They actually did that a lot, burying great stuntwork under terrible editing, cinematography, and CGI. The fight scenes would have been amazing, in a movie that didn't absolutely suck.
"The scenes at the research facility were painfully boring and full of convoluted exposition." Sounds like a very accurate adaptation😀
Pretty much. Man with Assassin heritage and an unconventional life for it is kidnapped by Abstergo to relive in the Animus memories of an ancestor from a time period with heavy religious significance to locate an Apple of Eden.
Every time I get yanked back to the real world, my reaction is "Oh man I hope this is a short sequence".
controversies aside, fassbender is such a good actor. if he and marion cotillard couldn’t save it, no one can
Funny thing about your suggestion: THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THE VIDEO GAME DID.
The original Assassin's Creed game was primarily the story of Altair, a hot-headed assassin who jeopardised the Brotherhood by breaking the titular Assassin's Creed (Stay your blade from the flesh of an innocent, Hide in plain sight, and Never compromise the Brotherhood), and is demoted by their leader and sent on missions to regain his Elder status whilst investigating an ancient conspiracy involving an artifact called the Apple of Eden.

They should have cut the modern plotline entirely. We're here to see medieval assassins doing parkour, not scientists in laboratories. Duh.
Even as a non Assassins Creed, it just doesnt work especially with how anticlimactic it was
It would work better as starting in ancient times then slowly working its way up to modern times; instead of having a dueled storyline.

So the story puts you in a cool ancient setting but focuses on a boring present day adventure with abstergo and a boring character... Just like the games. Seems like a faithful adaptation 😂
I watched this movie without ever playing the games and then got into the games afterwards and can definitely see how fans wouldn’t be thrilled by it.
Damn... soon you gotta add BORDERLANDS 😮
The Ancestors action scenes were exactly what a fan would've wanted in a movie.
I do agree that the cutting between the past and the present was annoying. That was probably what killed the film for me.
I hate every moment of present day in these games so obviously they would make a movie where that is the main focus. Guess that's why Ubisoft had a black Samurai and a Star Wars game right when fan interest is at an all time low.

The amount of projects lost in the Disney/21st Century Fox buyout is vast and included a sequel to Killer Klowns from Outer Space

Lol the bad pacing and constant interruption of fun to go back to the boring and pointless present day is the worst part of the games too

I'd forgotten this movie existed - I don't recall there being any hype about it when it came out and had missed the launch.
Should kept it all in the past until the end

i remember being ridiculed by my 4th grade teacher for talking about watching it
I have to admit it. I love this movie! It is one of my biggest guilty pleasures 🤷🏻♂️

Ubisoft now has a video game video game curse to go with their video game movie curse.
As a long time Assassins Creed fan, this movie was the worst thing I’ve ever saw. It doesn’t understand why people love Assassins Creed.

I've never heard of this movie
Me and my best friend left the theater. I was so fucking lost talk about a collasal failure disgusting execution
Is this a new series and are you gonna cover more than just video game adaptations or movies?
Maybe "Launch failure" is a briefer title for the series? idk.
Why did they make a movie based on a character that doesn't exist in the game? Thats why it faild, fans wanted to see an ezio or an Altair come to life not some new guy we're not invested in

I cannot fathom why they decided to make the animus that stupid robot arm
i played this movie in disney+ on my tv and just left it to play my phone lol
I have never met anyone who unironically likes this movie.
So trashtalk it all the wayy, no apologies
Rampage was both pretty good, and was not a flop
I'm not joking when I say me and my friends fell asleep watching the movie one by one on DVD. It was just so damn boring and we just kept wondering why the hell didn't they just use the ezio games and go from there
I totally forgot that I watched this terrible movie.
I bought it b/c it sounded like it’d be a cool movie. I only watched it once with my dad and then forgot about it 😂
I found it really boring and it just looked fake like "Sky Capt and the World of Tomorrow"
Yeah... as a big fan of the games, I hated it as much as you, and for the same reasons. It was an absolutely dreadful movie on just about every level.

This film had no chance against Rogue One.
That 2023 Mario movie is one of the worst major motion pictures ever created
That's a little hyperbolic dont you think? If you don't like it fine but worst ever come on...
I still like the 90's one.
Ubisoft making a dogshit product. Why am I not surprised?
The modern times parst are equally boring and tedious in the games as well
subsidairy
