I certainly don't expect realism from this series of movies - but I do expect to be entertained by a story. And if not a story, then at least by some interesting scenes. If not even that, then *something* to engage my interest.
Sadly, this movie has nothing more to offer than a couple of hours of shooting dying opponents with more bullets to the legs, neck and head - or taking forever to stab some particularly-slow-dying oafs with dozens of different blades.
Apparently, the modern assassin's hand gun, fitted with between 6 and 70-round magazines, has previously-unheard-of poor accuracy, so even shooting someone from inches away requires several shots to the body and head. This is strange, because the shots appear to explode portions of the head onto any convenient background surface - yet more are needed.
All I can add to this, is that the quality of assassin has gone down the toilet when they have to endlessly fight, stab and shoot each other until the director gets bored enough to decide that they can stop.
The story, or what passes for it, can be told, in detail, in around twenty words - but I wouldn't want to "spoil" it for anyone.
2/10 stars because I watched it to the end, unlike one-star movies, where I can't make it to that point.
