I hope it is successful enough for them to finish the intended trilogy. Personally I generously offer it 7/10, and would recommend seeing it. But I know they intended to produce a trilogy so I'd like to believe the opportunity to release sequels will give the audience more of what they're looking for, while this movie may have been a bit too much set up rather than development. As far as movie adaptations of video games, this is a far better rendition than many other attempts. The action scenes are well choreographed and exciting, countered with what may be a few too many close up facial expressions and dialogue that might easily confuse someone less familiar with the base plot of the franchise. The change of the Animus from a bed-like system to the VR style arm was something I originally disliked, but that change ends up playing well into the film visually and aids in parts of the story. Despite this, it was still the better AC that. Despite that, the film remains a fun and intriguing watch. Ubisoft released two Assassin's Creed games in 2014, and Rogue was the last-gen consolation prize for gamers without shiny new Xbox Ones or PS4s. Following a somewhat parallel story to the original game, I do wish they would've stuck with original characters.
