Contradictory American theme

This movie actually has quite a lot of merit in terms of intention: a young boy who has lost his love, in order to avenge the terrorists, with a determination to die, pretends to join a terrorist organization, is seen by the CIA, and is trained to become an assassin ( Death Warrior), but the real enemy is his senior, and in the end it is rescue rather than killing. The instructor first insisted on being professional and selfless, but finally took the risk to save the protagonist, which also reflected the change of concept.

However, the embarrassment of this movie is wobbly. Discrimination against Russia and saying that Iran is not satisfied with the nuclear agreement are all platitudes of the far-right in the United States; the biggest enemy is made by itself, and there is a feeling of reflection... Therefore, this movie is not pleased on both sides, it is a bit like the American theme, but it is not so, the theme is vague.

In fact, the protagonist is willing to be a dead man in order to get revenge. It is a good starting point. It should be developed around the line of undercover terrorist organizations. The nuclear bomb was stolen, but it was the agent who had lost contact with him. The entire group would be suspended for investigation, right? How could it be possible to send two or three such kittens under Melon Tianli? For such a big event, there are so few people. U.S. anti-terrorism funds have been corrupted, right?

Therefore, the biggest failure of this film is that the theme of revenge for ordinary people, which is quite innovative from the beginning, completely jumped to another old-fashioned nuclear bomb theme, so various flaws occurred.

    Passable, it can be better shot, but unfortunately the middle is not exciting enough, and the nuclear explosion in the sea at the end is not bad.

    Emotionally supporting the villain because the protagonist is too annoying, the villain is just as annoying

American Assassin quotes

  • Dr. Frain: You wanted to kill them all and then go on killing. Pretty extreme, don't you think?

    Mitch Rapp: No, I don't think that's extreme at all. I think people like that deserve to die in the worst ways you can imagine.

  • Director Stansfield: This kind of psych profile scares the hell out of him. As far as he's concerned, you're sending him a Section 8 with an axe to grind.
