A friend of mine invited me to see this at a local theater, and I went since I wasn't doing much. My expectations were modest when I went in, so I wasn't expecting much. The whole time I was watching, I was cringing at every point of the movie. Not because of its low production levels, but because of the story.
First of all, the Costumes and Sets were very well done, along with the Visual Effects and Music. The characters were interesting to say the least, but some dragged down the story and its structure. The thing that messed it up was its story, about an Assassin trying to find redemption. It's whole story was muddled and filled with a lot of romantic story that made incredibly difficult to watch. Another thing is using this to brainwash people into thinking that murderers can be redeemed and not face trial for their crimes. Just because in the ending the person becomes a Christian, does not erase what he has done, and should still be hung for his crimes.
Another problem is that the movie takes from a lot of other movies and is not original. Many of the action scenes were discount Assassin's Creed, and the whole mask thing was discount Superhero films in general. The dialogue is also very stomach cringing and terrible to listen to.
Overall; Great visual effects, costumes, setting, and music. Terrible story, bad dialogue, and some pretty bad characters.
I would not recommend it to anyone, not even to Christians.
