My Dearest Assassin (2026)

My Dearest Entertainment…

Le point fort de ce film, c'est son casting. Aucun doute qu'il ne déçoit pas, bien qu'on sache peu de choses sur Lhan finalement. L'ensemble des acteurs amène de la chaleur dans ce monde violent et cupide.

Cependant, le film perd de son intérêt une fois la moitié atteinte (le film est d’ailleurs un chouïa trop long (une bonne trentaine de trop, pour moi)). Entre les antagonistes qui reviennent sans cesse et des combats qui n'ont que pour intérêt de botter des culs, il ne reste pas grand-chose. Toutefois, l'action ne faiblit pas avec des scènes bien chorégraphiées. La vendetta est honnête, mais elle manque de réels enjeux émotionnels.

En bref, My Dearest Assassin est un film d'action entraînant avec des combats percutants, ainsi qu'une mise en scène efficace.

A decent netflix thai action flick that could've accomplished more

As a fan of Baifern - when a new netflix action movie starring her comes out, it's a must-watch for me!

Having said that though, I think while the movie holds pretty well on its own, I don't think I can give it anymore than a 7.5/10. The cast is generally likable and interesting enough, and the action scenes (especially the beginning) are great. It kinda falls off towards the middle and the end though where it's just just gunfights with endless generic goons which tends to respawn automatically just to continue the movie. I think the inconsistency in the number of generic goons really took me away from the story quite a fair bit, because you see maybe 12 of them come in, but the fights seem to show like 50 of them.

Another thing is the hitmen "villians". They're pretty two dimensional and honestly doesn't add much to the movie, Toni's the most interesting of the lot but it doesn't seem like he's exceptionally skilled or anything, just that he is ruthless and has a lot of money to throw around to hire more assassins and goons.

Still, it is what it is, if you're a fan of action movies, thai movies or Baifern, it's still quite a solid watch and an entertaining evening.
