Maybe my enjoyment of The Maze Runner series has created a small soft spot in my heart for the highly talented young actor Dylan O’Brien or maybe American Assassin just looks like a good enough concept that it might work.
The first trailer is a tonal mess, but sports some decent-enough Punisher homages to grab my attention and then a late-in-the-game Michael Keaton reveal that all but confirms my butt in a seat.
Most are writing this trailer off as millennial trash, but I think it looks like a harmless action film that might have a lot more going for it than we think.
Thoughts?
