Watched it at home with many breaks. A visual masterpiece. Intriguing storyline that kept me guessing, but may have strayed too far from the genre. Generally well written, but many plot holes in retrospect. I was expecting abject stupidity, but was (un) pleasantly surprised. Kudos at reimagining this classic cinema. Certainly worth a watch for any film buff. Cheers

Excellent ending for the Knox character, much different than usual for this genre. A tear-jerker (almost) for sure. Makes you think about deeper issues than just the demise of an assassin. Definitely worth a watch. Top Tip: Watch the 2017 "American Assassin" first.

I liked the concept of the interrelatedness of people across the globe and they did a great job immersing the audience in these cultures. BUT, it was written with unnecessarily dumB plot lines. 1) Father leaves kids alone with rifle on day 1 of getting it? 2) Front on shot to bus, shatters left side window? If from front, hits nothing else in bus, including the windshield? 3) Waiting on an ambulance instead of returning in the bus or ANY other vehicle? 4) Letting drunk nephew drive across US border? Walking into desert at night in high heels instead of backtracking <1/4 mile to main road? 5) Moroccan police just start firing on a man and 2 boys? 6) Japanese girl coming on to multiple older men, I imagine this is weird, even in Japan. DumB and unnecessary. Could have had same outcomes without these distractions. Otherwise, could have been a very good movie.

Terrible. Couldn't make it all the way through episode 2. No realism whatsoever. Poorly written and sequenced. Main character (woman) doing WAY too many stupid things and acting hysterical. Trained astronaut? The manner that this character was written / displayed is an insult to women everywhere. A hand calculated re-entry off by >6° is survivable? Doesn't land in ocean? Instead, it conveniently touches down mere miles from the main base in Kazakhstan, where a caravan of vehicles and a helicopter flying 30 feet above the ground all arrive at the same time, with her husband and daughter, of course? Fiction? Yes. Science fiction? No Ridiculous. Do not watch.

Do not watch. Explaining why will only waste more of my time than this terrible movie has already. You have been warned.

If it does happen to me, I hope it's not as stupid as this movie...
