  Not even close October 19, 2008 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
OK I'm a huge fan of the Hitman games and I thought hey it has a great story all the games have great scripts and great action but i was surely disappointed. I have major gripes with this movie not only does Timothy Olyphant not even closely resemble agent 47 but his acting pukes all over a great games serious and who ever wrote the script needs to be punched in the face none of the action would even closely resemble what agent 47 does in any of the games if you want your hitman fix from a source other then the games i strongly suggest the book (Hitman:enemy within) it a great book on its own even if you know nothing of the Hitman series of games it one hell of a read and if you love the games as i do you'll need the book trust me get the book not the movie

  The Bald and the Beautiful September 30, 2008 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I actually had some expectations from this movie, I'm a big fan of the lower budget and simple action flick, and the trailer actually had me very interested. Let me also say that I don't play video games and even though I'm very well read this video-game just isn't popular enough for me to know much about, unlike say earlier adaptations like doom or Mario etc, or the coming Halo.
The movie basically follows the formula take a popular video game, make it into a 100 min script, put in a decent actor, a hot exotic chick, and stuff it full of guns, explosions and a bunch of good one liners. Yet somehow this movie fell bellow my expectations, and I have a feeling the Censor Board had lot to do with, scene after scene of gratuitous violence and nudity fell pray to their hypocritical morality. So much so that even some of the dialogues that i saw in the teasers were butchered.
Despite this fact there is no doubt that the film has its weakness' such as:
1). Lack of a good villain, a staple of older movies nowadays its hard to come across a good one, a powerful hero needs a powerful hero to really shine.
2). No really big scenes.
3). Weak and much rehashed script, almost everything has been seen on film before.
4). Timothy Oliphant? While I agree he does have charisma and did carry of his role quite well there is no doubt in my mind that it could have been much better, he was good in the cool parts, but he just didn't look menacing enough when he had too.
Beside that, Olga looks smoking hot even with the punk look, when she dresses up she crosses over into the amazing territory, too bad the censor board cut of most of her hot scenes, but she was one of the best things about this movie. Some of the one liner are really good, especially good were the conversations between Olga and 47. Other than these things this movie is quite good.

A real shoot em up. Not for the squeamish as there are plenty of blood highlights. Action packed and loaded. Not for kids.
