Press

“As you watch the movie, I promise that there are moments when your jaw will drop. Assassins is a terrific true-crime story, but it’s also a documentary thriller about the new world disorder.”

— Variety

“It's a Kafka-esque and sometimes darkly comic tale of deception and exploitation that makes for a smartly assembled and eminently topical film that arrives at a crucial juncture in world affairs...”

— The Hollywood Reporter

“What an extraordinary story of sexism, violence, diplomatic bad faith and dishonesty on an international scale.”

— The Guardian
