Hitman: Agent 47


Hitman: Agent 47
This high-action film has hopes of starting a franchise but the critics are doubtful. The titular Agent 47 is an elite assassin, genetically engineered from conception to be the perfect killing machine and known only by the last two digits on the barcode tattooed on the back of his neck. He is the culmination of decades of research (and forty-six earlier Agent clones), endowing him with unprecedented strength, speed, stamina and intelligence. His latest target is a mega-corporation that plans to unlock the secret of his past to create an army of killers whose powers surpass even his own. Teaming up with a young woman who may hold the secret to overcoming their powerful and clandestine enemies, 47 confronts stunning revelations about his own origins and squares off in an epic battle with his deadliest foe.

Tomatometer quote icon Hitman: Agent 47 fails to clear the low bar set by its predecessor, forsaking thrilling action in favor of a sleekly hollow mélange of dull violence and product placement.
