Baby Assassins

They are really cute maid. It is not a serious action movie. Just enjoy their pretty cute violence action. Don't think serious......They kill for a living not for fun. They have to be maid in maid cafe to be employee. Killing is just a part time job. Really funny.

Saw a trailer for #3 and thought, "man...I bet #1 would be worth watching!" It definitely was.

This was a lot of fun. Kind of goofy, but not in a goofy 'American pop' movie kind of way (and more to its credit, really) but in a bit of taking social tropes and amping them up a touch, and in a smart, clever way.

Importantly, the action scenes are great. There's not a ton, but they're very well executed and shot, so they're good to watch. Unlike a lot of modern action, they're filmed and edited so the fight itself is part of the story telling and the hits feel cinematic without departing from reality.

The main baddy is obnoxious and stupid, and we could really do without her as she's gone too far into the goofy trope... but the two characters are great for all their differences and chemistry.

Glad I watched it!

Deadpan hilarious and well paced, no time wasted on finicky worldbuilding, it just tosses you in and assumes you'll be able to swim based on ample context clues. I don't think I've seen a better mix of humor and action since Hot Fuzz, and Izawa Saori is probably the first actor in 2 generations to be worthy to take up the Jackie Chan / Stephen Chow / Michelle Yeoh mantle of funny martial artists.

The leads have great chemistry, and for all its absurdity, it remains surprisingly grounded. They manage to act like both snarky gen z kids AND skilled assassins without making those two things a contradiction. And all that is before the fight scenes, which put almost all modern action movies to shame by sheer virtue of believability and being able to see what is actually happening at any given moment.

All 3 movies are worth your time, but the first one is still the best.

From the films title and cover photo you can pretty much tell what you're in for. What I didn't expect was how well acted, how well filmed, choreographed, funny and over all charming I would find it. Did I say funny ? It is funny! I think the two main characters really deliver charming, nuanced performances. Yes it's an admittedly ridiculous version of teenagers having to face the absurdity of modern times but it's well done even endearing. Think "The Raid" meets "Rurouni Kenshin" meets "Ghost World" meets something funny. I really liked it. I don't know that it warrants a sequel as I see is planned but as a one off I think it was really successful !!!

Baby Assassins was promoted as an action movie. It really isn't & you'll be disappointed if that's why you watch. It has some very good action but there isn't a lot of it. This is really a comedy-drama centering around the personal lives of the two young main characters who just happen to be professional assassins. The comedy is also often dark comedy.

The last 30 minutes I would rate a good 9. The first hour is a mixed bag. It has some really good scenes but some that totally bored me. It didn't help that because of the beginning of this film, we aren't sure until much later what we are watching is real or a fantasy scene. So that took away some enjoyment of the first hour.

The acting was generally good but not great. The action was not a major portion of the movie and had both really good choreography and some very sloppy.

As a whole I enjoyed the movie. Since it finished very strong on comedy, drama and even action it left me fulfilled. This movie is not for everyone, but I would recommend it.
