★★★☆☆ 6.0
I really wish there was less storytelling and more creativity, but alas, what is left is a run-of-the-mill documentary that presents a splendid story, yet little else. Whether or not there is justice come the end of the documentary - you'll have to wait and see.

SWITCH.
Whether or not there is justice come the end of the documentary - you'll have to wait and see. I greatly benefited by going into this film completely cold, but at the end of the day, this is a narrative that happened not so long ago, and most people will know how these events unfolded.

"Assassins" makes an impression. A plot that manages to surprise even jaded viewers. Go watch it — you won't regret it.

I wanted to love this more than I did. Moreover, the score does its job although nothing more. A solid 6.9 — hard to dispute.
