Hitman


Hitman
Based on the video game, our hero is a hitman raised from birth to be the best at what he does. In Moscow to knock off the President, he is surprised when the President resurfaces right after being killed. Unfortunately he can't rectify the situation because he is already on the run from two sets of pursuers. He picks up a young woman who turns out to be the President's brother's sex slave, and together, they try to solve the puzzle while staying one step ahead of their chasers, and leaving a large body count in their wake.

24.com
Megan Kakora quote iconUltimately there's nothing really significant about Hitman, and should be watched purely for escapist fun.
10
BBC
Paul Arendt quote iconHitman continues the grand Hollywood tradition of completely failing to turn a computer game into a decent movie.
5
Chicago Sunday Times
Roger Ebert quote iconHitman stands right on the threshold between video games and art. On the wrong side of the threshold, but still, give it credit.
15
ScreenIt
quote iconOne need only look at the Bourne Identity pics or even a hybrid such as Mr. and Mrs. Smith to see how good to terrific such genre entries can be, and thus how mundane this one is in comparison.
