THE STORY :

The film is set in the same universe as the video games but features an original story that expands the series' mythology, taking place during the Spanish Inquisition. Convicted criminal Callum Lynch is rescued from his own execution by Abstergo Industries, the modern-day incarnation of the Templar Order, and learns that they are searching for the Apple of Eden, which seeded the first sin, in order to subjugate the human race and end its perceived corruption.

The company's head scientist, Dr. Sophia Rikkin, reveals that Callum is a descendant of Aguilar de Nerha, a member of a secret order of assassins that for centuries have opposed the Templar Order, and conscripts him to the Animus Project, in which Callum is connected to a machine that allows him to revive Aguilar's memories so Abstergo can learn the current whereabouts of the Apple of Eden....

OUR REVIEW :

Based in Madrid, Abstergo is the modern face of the Knights Templar, which seeks peace on earth by controlling all free will...The key to doing so is an artifact known as the 'Apple of Eden,' hidden for centuries by the Templars' sworn enemies, the Assassins, from whom Callum Lynch is descended... The film is at its most engaging during the numerous medieval sequences, the history of violence is well put ahead while questioning the Christian Templars as oppressors or not. Directed by Australian helmer Justin Kurzel, was the film part of the course in today's blockbusters ?
