Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì

Assassins—intense, action/crime drama—presents a solid story backed with a very good cast featuring Sylvester Stallone, Antonio Banderas, and Julianne Moore. Great work for Director Richard Donner in directing a very good assassination film that delivers what it promises.
