Chinese assassins are not the same as foreign assassins. Chinese assassins adhere to a kind of chivalrous feelings based on humanistic feelings. They can die for the sake of gratitude, they can live for the sake of promises, and they can even toss themselves all over for revenge without any regrets. They rarely have a kind of regret in their hearts The noble family and country feelings are mostly the contractual relationship between the master and the servant. Once they receive the favor of the master, they can go through fire and water, and they will do whatever they want, but they are different from pure servants. They have their own behavior style and independent personality. It is customary between masters and masters to form a special relationship that is not master-servant, friend, or confidant. The grace of a drop of water is repaid by the fountain, and the loyalty of the assassin is not so much the principle of repaying the favor itself and not owe it to the master who has been favored by himself. When the favor has been repaid, there will be no more entanglements between the assassin and the master, and they will never see each other again. This feature can probably be seen as the creed that Chinese assassins abide by. But often the way the assassins repay their master's favor is to return it with life, and the masters are well versed in the assassin's procedures, so unless it is a last resort, they will never send an assassin lightly. However, the Chinese assassin culture is not unchanged. With the advancement of time and the change of dynasties, the independent self of the assassin is gradually lost, replaced by "professional killer" and "deadpool", and has become a powerful person to consolidate rule. and tools of violence to prune dissidents. Assassin culture is still flourishing in the power circles of various countries.


And this film called "Assassin's Creed" presents a historical scroll about Western Assassin culture to the public in a scientific and religious way. Although the author does not agree with the creed that the assassins have adhered to for generations to maintain the "free will" of human beings, it has to be said that the whole film has an impact on the "temple of the Western political high-level". The narration of the Knights" and the "Assassin Organization" has a strong sense of immersion and a sense of ritual solemnity. Whether it is the "Knights Templar" or the "Assassin Organization", at the time of oath and conclave, trial and death, the mysterious The power of religious rendering makes people curious and fixated. Death, blood, peace, and faith are killing each other between religions and paganism. It is difficult to say who is the absolute dawn of justice, not that the "Assassin Organization" represents justice for the "free will" of mankind, and the "Templar Knights" Regiment" represents the darkness of dictatorship. In fact, what the "Knights Templar" did on the surface seems to be to control the tyranny of the people, and it is unreasonable to deprive individuals of their freedom, but this approach is precisely the best way to protect individual rights and maximize freedom. necessary means of rationalization. What a horrible thing it would be if the leadership of a country did not centralize power and let the people of that country be free! When the law and morality are deceived by the so-called "free will", then the country will be torn apart, torn apart, riots and disasters continue. This is the seemingly beautiful but extremely sad ending brewed by "free will".


The most unacceptable thing about this film is that the director tries to instill a non-noble, outdated, outdated, paranoid, and even naive ideology into the general audience, thinking that it is enough to wrap the cloak of fighting against religion to the death. Demonstrate the greatness and sanctity of this trend of thought. It smells like forced brainwashing. But the director seems to have forgotten that this is the Internet age of the 21st century. As long as ordinary people who are not closed to the country can have uncontrolled and independent thinking, the current trend of thought is gradually converging on the "inception of human beings, nature is good", and the concern for individual life The respect and awe came up. There is nothing nobler and greater than the creed of respect for life and reverence for life. The foundation of eliminating violence and terror must first be respect for life and reverence for life, rather than giving up life, killing people, and spilling blood for the sake of the so-called "free will". Violence suppresses violence, and the result must be violence rather than peace.
In the film, the male protagonist's father killed the male protagonist's mother in order to protect the Assassin's Creed from being destroyed. This made me both indignant and puzzled. I wondered what the Assassin's Creed was? How can people be so demented and claim to be great and glorious? In the end, when the male protagonist led a group of descendants of the assassin organization to fight out like the gangsters of the bloody high school, I suddenly realized that the so-called assassins are not heroes who guard the light, but a group of organized and cultured thugs. It's just that some people want to whitewash it.
