| Guns, Blood, Boobies Fun Movie-Going Experience (by Harbinger70) |
| Let's keep this short and sweet. If you enjoy the video games, you will more than likely enjoy the movie. It's very easy to follow, the acting can be downright terrible at times but very solid from Olyphant who was a GREAT choice to play Agent 47 , the special FX are loud and neat to look at, there's lots of explosive action-packed gun fights, and the hot chick gets naked. The only thing I have against the film was that it was a little dull and awkward in the beginning, but it picked up about 15 minutes in and kept it rollin' until the ending. Oh, and the hot chick gets <more> |
| Executed Brilliantly. (by jonautopsy) |
| I have been a fan of the Hit-man series of video games for years. It's the only game I can pick up and play at any time, even if I haven't played it in months. I was overjoyed, and a bit worried, when I heard that they were making a Hit-man film. I saw it Thanksgiving day, the day after it's release, and I am back to the 'overjoyed' portion of my thoughts.The movie follows the game almost exactly, aside from the clone/orphan thing, but it's not anything to lose sleep over. I was blown away by the execution of the Price target at the fancy restaurant and how close it <more> |
| Swithly he kills his target (by Darknoob-cz) |
| It's the best game movie i ever have seen timothy perfectly fit in 47, Xavier gens has earned my respect I hope there will be a sequel. The where a few cons like:1 The plot was kinda cliché, almost same like the movie shooter. 2 The other agents didn't look like him, while the game they were clones. 3 The film was to short and there was not enough bloodshed. 4 47 was not so coldheartted as the trailer said he was And here are the pros:1 It is good to see the hard/silverballers back and the fibrewire. 2 The movie did't ruined the game character.Well there is much more but i <more> |
| Better than expected (by AMH57) |
| This by far is the best video game adaptation movie I have ever seen. It stayed mostly true to the games but instead the agents were orphans instead of clones. There were many great action scenes and nods to the games, such as Agent 47 stealing various outfits, his weapons and his odd ways of killing his targets. the movie reminded me of an all new game in itself.Not to mention Nika Olga Kurylenko was amazingly HOT in this movie and has various topless scenes which made me happy : and she wasn't a bad actress either. I think Timothy Olyphant was THE perfect Agent 47 and captured the <more> |
| Is this a start of a new trend? (by sinnyk666) |
| Well is it? Did we finally meet a franchise who will not die due to the fact Hollywood over did the already flawless title that is Hit-man? Well I most certainly hope so, because this movie delivered in spades. Hit-man is a classic action title which made me very comfortable and took me out of the game state of mind and more into the movie. During the movie I wasn't drawn into comparing the movie to the game, either you played the game or not, I think there is something here for all the die hard fans, and your high octane action movie buffs. Hit-man leaves the disappointing titles such <more> |
| Faithful to the film and a very fun action film in its own right (by allman2568) |
| I went in with the low expectations one always goes into video games-turned-film with, and came out deeply pleased with the spot-on treatment of 47 and his cunning, ruthless life of assassination. The locations were beautiful and added a lot of class to the film, the over the top action wasn't very stealthy but who expects that in an action film despite it being in the games, and Olyphant absolutely nailed the character of 47. Ruthless, determined, subtle, deadly, and a total badass, he also injected a necessary touch of humor and humanity to the character. My hat's off to everyone <more> |
| Excellent (by xxxxts) |
| As we are all well aware of most film adaptations of video games are usually very poor. This is not the case with Hit-man. Hit-man has done something that no other video game film has been able to pull off before. It is entertaining to the general audience who has not plaid the video game, by use of witty remarks, dark humor, and excellent action scenes. On the other hand fans of the video game series will be pleasantly surprised that Hollywood has not butchered the concept of the video games. There has been much debate over the actor who played 47; all actors did an excellent job. I was very <more> |
| Not perfect but good enough (by rainwitched) |
| I've played Hit-man and have really been excited to see the movie. At first I was wondering how will they ever pull off the Hit-man movie but after watching it, its one of the few games to movie adaptations that I really liked. Not a perfect adaptation, but the best so far compared to others out there. Though Jason Statham was my initial bet, Timothy Olyphant did a good job with portraying Agent 47.Aspects of the game was incorporated in the movie and they didn't overkill with stupid ideas. Action was pretty good and I like the fight scenes. Agent 47 in the movie does live up to his <more> |
| Hit-man on Target (by jon.h.ochiai) |
| As Agent 47 played by Timothy Olyphant aims his gun at Interpol's Mike Whittier Dougray Scott , he asks, "How does a good man decide when to kill?" That is the paradox of Director Xavier Gens's slick "Hitman". The screenplay by Skip Woods is based on the video game "Hitman". I am unfamiliar with the game. Movie genesis from video games usually does not bode well. However, "Hitman" surprises with narrative and visual style, and the charismatic Olyphant as Agent 47. Olyphant recently seen in "Live Free or Die Hard" has a decidedly <more> |
