Assassin S Creed Clip Michael Fassbender Goes On The Run

Assassin’s Creed Clip Assassin’s Creed looks pretty enough, which shouldn’t be a big surprise seeing as it comes from Fassbender’s Macbeth director Justin Kurzel. The scenery in wide shots is stunning, and the action looks well choreographed. The cuts to the Animus serve as a reminder that this isn’t just some medieval action epic — it’s a medieval action epic buried inside a modern sci-fi thriller. And while I’ve never played the game myself, I’ve heard from people who have that it does a good job of approximating the look and feel of the source material....

Plus, sitcoms starring comedians as themselves can be hit or miss, but Jim Gaffigan succeeded in bringing his own brand of humor to television with clever writing from him and his wife Jeannie Gaffigan and a cavalcade of outstanding guest stars....

Taking place on two levels of an illicit casino in South Korea, it’s perhaps the most stylish and stylized of all the battles in Black Panther — not simply because of T’Challa (Chadwick Boseman), Nakia (Lupita Nyong’o), and Okoye’s (Danai Gurira) glamorous outfits....
