⭐️⭐️⭐️ out of 5
There's nothing extraordinary or surprising about this typical espionage flick, but if you're looking for some mindless entertainment it passes the time.
Director Michael Cuesta is well known for his work on TV shows like Blue Bloods and Homeland. Unfortunately, the formula he's gotten comfortable with on TV translates as generic on the silver screen. Viewers are likely to reflect on this production as a missed opportunity that was mechanical and predictable.
While none of the characters stand out as memorable, the casting was adequate - but an actor is only as good as his script. In the end, American Assassin is a glorified "direct to DVD" movie.
