The American: 5/10
This film is not a typical super fast on the go assassin film like The Bourne Series, but an observation at the life of one assassin: isolated and friendless. Unable to trust anyone or get involved in serious intimate relationships (if it happens, the other party ends up dead), the main character receives instruction from head boss and follows through with the plan while traveling through Italy. Throughout the film, the audience will question every character’s motive and determine if the main character will live or be killed by another assassin.
Side note: The American is open to interpretation and has limited dialog while we view the Italian country side.
