Well cast and acted. I've thoroughly enjoyed watching this again and again. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Revenge For A Unjust Act *by M***R on April 26, 2025* Wow, this movie so great to watch. Just what made a person change to seek revenge on an unjust act is played out very well. Fast action happens throughout the movie which keeps your attention. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good, but not as good as the book *by S***R on February 1, 2023* This is a 2017 film based (very loosely) on the series of spy novels written by the late author, Vince Flynn, centered on the character of Mitch Rapp (played in the movie by Dylan O'Brien). The book series started out with the novel Transfer of Power, which was actually Flynn's second novel, but the first to feature the character of Rapp. In that book, Rapp was an off-the-books CIA agent who hunted down terrorists in the prime of his career. After writing about 11 novels set around the older Rapp, Flynn wrote two prequel novels, American Assassin and Kill Shot, which basically filled in Rapp's origin story. This movie is loosely based on the novel American Assassin but changes elements of the story significantly (such as how Rapp's girlfriend is killed). Some elements from the book (and to an extent from Kill Shot) do make it into the movie, but it basically tells its own story (largely involving a rouge agent), while including character traits and heavily adapted plot elements from the books, as opposed to adapting the actual stories as Vince Flynn wrote them. For those who get the 4k disc, the A/V quality of the UHD disc is very good, and all of the extras are included on the UHD disc, although you do get a regular blu-ray disc as well. The extras include a making-of featurette that runs about 10 minutes, a featurette on casting O'Brien as Rapp, a featurette on the characters of Stan Hurley (played by Michael Keaton) and the main antagonist, a featurette on the stunts, and one on the locations in which the movie was shot, and then a Q&A session with O'Brien and Taylor Kitsch, that runs almost a half an hour (and is the longest of the extras). All totaled, you get about just under 90 minutes of material. This is a good action movie, but it is definitely better if you have not read the books and are already invested in the characters. I had not yet read the books when I saw the movie, but now that I have started reading the books I can definitely tell why some fans of the books really felt that the movie did not do enough to hold true to the books. That said, I think O'Brien did a very good job as a young Mitch Rapp, and Michael Keaton was great as Stan Hurley. Since the movie pretty much bombed in its theatrical release, the chances of there being a follow-up are pretty slim, but as a stand-alone action movie, it is definitely worth watching if you can accept that you are not going to get the story from the books. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/56004456-american-assassin-dvd](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/56004456-american-assassin-dvd) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-22*
