Watching sad movies is so much more fun when you've already watched it and are now watching it with a friend so you can laugh at their pain

american assassin.

I feel like I should open this with a simple fact - I��m not a Dylan O’Brien fangirl. I watch Teen Wolf - yes...but I watch it cause my old roomates always had it on in seasons 1 & 2 and it became habit to watch after that. The Maze Runner movies bore me to tears and I’ve seen them each once and only once. Yes, I think the kids talented (and good looking - I’m not blind) but I’m also almost 10 years older then him and his presence in a movie isn’t enough to make me run out and see it. I’m pointing this out because 3/4 of the stuff I’ve seen on Tumblr about this movie is filled with “zomgdylanissohot!!!!” This is not that commentary.

Ironically, if anything (in this case) I’m a Vince Flynn fangirl.

When the reviews for American Assassin started coming out this week I was a little surprised at how badly the movie got panned - mostly because Michael Keaton is in it and the man doesn’t usually make stinkers. Also, the novel (and the entire Mitch Rapp series) by Vince Flynn is fantastic. 

The reviews weren’t (entirely) wrong. The story itself was, frankly, ridiculous and full of holes you could drive a truck through. I was nervous when I heard they “updated” the novel - but assumed they just meant that it wasn’t set in the 90s. Apparently, “updated” actually translates into “taking the vaugest idea of the plot of the novel and chopping it into bits and pieces to make an hour and a half popcorn movie.” 

Considering the movie feels like a throwback 90s action flick the writers (all 4 of them through subsequent rewrites over the years) might have been better served by actually just sticking to the original storyline and keeping the timeline acurate to the novel. Instead it feels like each “re-write” was more like a cut and paste of what had already been done...and each subsequent writer didn’t factor into how to tie the threads fully together when they were finished.

Considering a few reviews of the movie I saw refrenced it as being “borderline racist” and “insensitive” the director might have gotten away with more if it was politically skewed to past events rather then current ones. But that’s the super far left liberal millenials who aren’t even old enough to fully remember and process 9/11 being “Triggered” and “needing a safe space” because they “accept everyone no matter what”. Rather then “accepting” that there are terrorists in the world (and yes, the majority of them are radical Islamics) who would like nothing more then to blow the United States and any democratic nation off the damned map.

That being said - most of the fault in the movie lies in the weakness in the script/story rather then the actual directing and acting. 

Michael Keaton is always great - and he’s a little tounge-in-cheek/wink-and-nod in this. It feels like he had fun making the movie. 

Taylor Kitsch was...meh. There were parts when he was very good (he does better in supporting roles then leads anyway) and there were times he felt like a caricature of the “token bad guy”. 

Dylan O’Brien however was absolutely fantastic. I was actually kind of surprised by how good the kid was. To the point where I really wish there was more for him to do and meatier stuff for him to dig into (again - the fault of the story). There were too many huge swathes where his acting was all (only) physical work and expressions - and as challenging as that can be normally in this film it felt more like Tom Cruise lite. 

Where the movie really shined was in the interaction between Michael Keaton and Dylan O’Brien.  This movie (if the were going to completely go off the rails of the original novel anyway) would have been better served being a more character driven piece. An hour and a half that fully delved into Rapp’s transformation from graduate student to CIA operative, with maybe a smaller mission here and there throughout the process to spice up the flick, would have been 1000% more interesting (in my opinion). Since the ending is screaming, “Hey! We wanna make a franchise!” the studio could have saved the high impact “action flick” for the next title (especially considering that the “next” Rapp novel is actually a much older Mitch Rapp anyway). 

So yea, it was fun. But it was empty calories. It won’t hurt Keaton, people are used to Kitsch making crappy acting flims and (hopefully) the general public (and casting directors) can see through the crappy plot to see that O’Brien has some real chops.
