Leave your thoughts about The Assignment.
| Film Journal InternationalMaitland McDonagh[Not] a "good" movie in the conventional sense of the word, but it's a great piece of unbridled pulp fiction and a fabulous showcase for Weaver and Rodriguez. |
| WBAI RadioPrairie MillerUnconventional, flamboyant, daring, provocative, and with Hill's playful when not pathologically crafted preference for outsiders. And more about masculinized females or its opposite as gender neutral ruthlessness, than transsexual anxiety as an issue. |
| Film Comment MagazineNathan LeeThe Assignment is not so naïve as to presume that "moral and political considerations" are irrelevant to its effect, but once you wrap your head around the premise the effect is more or less played out. |
| SFistRain JokinenHill has been mulling The Assignment's story since the 1970's, and that in itself may prove a cautionary tale: If it's taken you almost 50 years to finally get your story made into a movie, it probably wasn't that great of a story to begin with. |
| Boston HeraldJames VerniereRodriguez and Weaver are riveting. This lurid B-movie has cult following written all over it. |
| Detroit NewsAdam Graham"The Assignment" is an embarrassment all around, a murky, regrettable piece of gutter cinema. Next year's Razzie Awards race starts here. |
| The Patriot LedgerAl AlexanderTransphobia is the least of this mindless exercise's multitude of problems, beginning with the fact that the premise is so laughably implausible. |
| National ReviewArmond WhiteInstead of giving Millennials the heroic gender transition that they demand, Hill insists that we think deeper - perhaps about the media's popularizing of sex reassignment and the painful complications that such a choice entails. |
| Common Sense MediaJeffrey M. AndersonOn the one hand, this thriller starts out with a ludicrous, wrong-headed idea, but on the other hand, as directed by Walter Hill, it's so skillful and pulpy that it could become a cult classic. |
| AV ClubIgnatiy VishnevetskyCalling it disappointing would be an understatement. |
