Another failed case of game adaptation

I'm not a big player of Assassin's Creed, I've only played it a few times. Many of Ubisoft's games have a strong sense of operation, so they are more durable, but unfortunately I have passed the age of playing games.
However, as a movie lover, I still look forward to this movie. After all, Ubisoft's previous Ghost Recon Alpha, The Division Blockade is quite good, the degree of restoration is very high, and it is also very beautiful. However, Ubisoft apparently did not have a precise positioning for the first cinema movie. I feel that the ambition is a bit too big. I want to please game fans and attract more passers-by. In the end, I didn't like it for two days. I don't know if there will be the next one.
Michael Fassbender, a very dedicated actor, this time he played a great assassin, he is still qualified, his muscles are clearly defined, the fighting scenes are also well done, and there is no problem with casting. Marion Cotillard is also at the level of a goddess, her charm is still the same, especially her intellectual temperament is very attractive, but she is a little fatter, which is a little regrettable.
When I look at Assassin's Creed, I see it as the elusive, almost artistic assassination of a skilled assassin, the graceful, flamboyant and exciting leap of faith, and the mystery that controls everything in the shadows. But in this long-winded movie, apart from the leap of faith, there are only escapes and talk.
A young boy who loves sports, Lynch, witnessed his mother being killed by his father. Thirty years later, he also became a murderer who was about to be executed. When he wakes up, he finds that he has become an experimental guinea pig of Abstergo, using a machine called Animus to help find the Apple of Eden. The Animus is a virtual reality machine, discovered and modified by Abstergo, that can read the genetic memory of its user and project it into a three-dimensional world. It turns out that Lynch is the descendant of the bull assassin Aguilar, so Lynch began to travel again and again. In the smoke-filled Spain of 1492, Lynch experienced the speed and passion of the carriage version; after escaping on the execution ground, Lynch showed a standard parkour tutorial, perfectly showing his physical fitness; in the Sultan's palace, after a fierce battle, Leap of Faith found Columbus and handed over the Apple of Eden. In the experience again and again, Lynch grew rapidly and became a qualified assassin, rescued some companions, and assassinated the person in charge of the company.
I think the screenwriter is also quite confused, and what he wants to express is probably dizzy in the end. The characters are also quite contradictory. The heroine first lets Lynch assassinate her father, and then thinks of revenge, which is inexplicable. For such an awesome organization, with such poor security, has all the funds been used to buy batons? Anyway, with a gun. The final assassination is also like playing a house, too easy.
Too many modern scenes, too few action scenes. Spain in 1492 is well rendered, with smoke filled with gunpowder, and the style of the late Middle Ages has a high degree of restoration. The chase scene in that building was quite touching. It was the assassin. Leap of Faith also performed well, very textured, and the action design was not enjoyable enough.
I don’t know if the senior management will learn from the lesson and make better changes. After all, this one is a bit miserable. Fortunately, the family has a great career, and there is still a chance to remedy it. Listen to the voices of the audience.

    The story of Fa Shark being locked up in a small dark room and playing VR games every day, and the story will not be released unless the level is cleared... The core action is not very cool, and the story is told in a mess-. - I feel more distressed about Ma Liang than Fa Shark. What kind of ghost character is this heroine?

    The amount of information in the film is completely sorry for the nearly two-hour duration, and the various backgrounds are not clearly explained. If it is not for the confusion of the players, the stylized audio-visual language in "Macbeth" has also disappeared in this film. . But the action scene with Jed Kuezel's tight music is worth the price.
