This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

ASSASSIN is a pretty lazy straight-to-video thriller for action man Danny Dyer, here mumbling his way through a clichéd plot in a pick-up-the-pay cheque type role. The story sees Dyer's assassin (a case of miscasting if ever there was one) working his way through various targets until he finds himself set up by his own bosses.Everything about this film screams cheap, not least the script which is incredibly predictable from beginning to end. However, my interest was piqued by the presence of the Kemp brothers, Gary and Martin, playing two characters who could easily be the Kray twins twenty years later. The Kemps are great fun and I enjoyed their scenes, even if the rest of the movie is a drag despite the short running time.

Assassin is a brilliant Brit-flick with a thrilling insight into the good old British underworld. If you like electrifying, hard hitting, British gangster films then it's definitely for you. Danny Dyer plays the role of 'Jamie', and as always he fills the role perfectly. I find in watching this you get a sense of involvement, like you're really there watching things unfold before your eyes. This sure to be classic crime thriller will have you on the edge of your seat as Dyer does whatever he can to save the woman he loves. Assassin sets itself apart from other Gangland films by not just having all the grit, guts and glory of a British Gangland film, but also having an underlying story of love and sacrifice. which I find will appeal to all audiences. Well written, Well directed, and well cast. Assassin is definitely one of the best homegrown indie's I've seen in a long while!

I went for this movie due to the IMDb rating at that time. It was around a 6-7 and I thought to myself, lets give it a go.I wont give out any spoilers but this movie was just bad. I don't understand how any producer, actor etc can go through this process and think YESSS lets bring this out..The acting was appalling, the sound and music was that of a bad soft-porn flick, the character build up was none existing and the storyline simple, dumb and frustrating.Its just a shame.. I was not anticipating on a great movie, but perhaps just something entertaining and OK would have been more then fine.. sadly it was just a waste of time.

After years of using IMDb, this will be my first review, and I'm gonna keep it short. I only wanted to review this because of the misleading 7.1 rating it somehow has, I honestly don't know how that's possible. This has to be in my top 5 of worst movies I've ever seen. I'm a big fan of Danny Dyer, but I'm sorry Danny, you were dyer. The acting was terrible from the whole cast, poorly written dialogue and totally predictable. There wasn't one moment in the film I thought was good, avoid wasting an hour and twenty minutes of your life and instead, go clean the kitchen, it will be much more enjoyable and rewarding when you finish.
