HITMAN is an action thriller that the movie makers created from the popular computer video game. A little unrealistic to have a group of assassins trained from childhood with shaved heads and bar-codes tattooed on the back of their heads and yet walk around openly crossing international borders without disguise to pop-off heads of states. All this with one Interpol agent tracking our “HITMAN” who he claims no one has ever seen and who never misses his mark. Timothy Olyphant plays the cold blooded professional good guy assassin Agent 47. The only time he shows any kind of emotion is when he comes upon Nika played by the sexy model turned actress Olga Kuylenko. He does fall for her charms when she prances around naked in his room and tries to seduce him. Only that he knocks her out with a jab from his syringe of sleeping stuff. He is being chased around the globe by Interpol Agent Mike Whittier played by Dougray Scott.
The plot is a bit complicated yet by the end of this movie that’s quite irrelevant when you see all the action. And isn’t that what you want to watch in a film such as this. So don’t expect any Oscar winning performances. Just some well planned and executed action.
