Assassin Club Review: Wannabe John Wick Flick Can’t Keep Up

The logline: An assassin discovers that he must kill six other assassins or be assassinated himself. The world is their arena, and only one can come out alive. A kill-or-be-killed globe-trotting action thriller starring Henry Golding and Noomi Rapace sounds like the perfect recipe for a fun time after the massive success of John Wick. Is there the possibility of being called redundant or generic due to such a powerhouse franchise already existing? Yes. But if it is fun, then it doesn’t matter, but fun is a bit of a reach for Assassin Club.
