Basic story: a hitman is abducted and wakes up to find he was given an unwanted sex change operation (or gender re-assignment, hence the title) as revenge for someone he killed.
... I sh!t you not.

What a strange movie. Hit VOD this weekend.
The biggest problem is the early scenes with Rodriguez made up (supposedly) to look like a man. It looks silly (especially one scene where they make a point of showing him full frontal naked), and they would have been better off just finding a man to play the role for those scenes.
(On the plus side, if you ever wanted to see Rodriguez as a woman naked, you get that, too )
Rodriguez also uses a weird voice the whole time, I guess to try to sound more manly.
