My thoughts

Assassin had been a film that I first heard about a while back and to say I anticipated its release would be an understatement. I had signed up to Team Danny/JK when I first saw the work they did in the film Deviation and couldnt wait to see them work together again. I wasnt disappointed with the results. I love character dramas, and even more so when its a film about someone starting off as one person and their lives being altered by a single experience. Assassin is a great film and the greedy part of me now eagerly sits and waits to hear that JK Amalou and Danny will work together again soon. I hope they do.

So for those in Canada. Definitely check the film out when it hits your shores on July 1st 2015
