Hitman

2007

Overall rating: 3 out of 5

from 41,350 members

Fast-paced action thriller based on the computer game of the same name. A professional assassin known only as Agent 47 (Timothy Olyphant), hired by a group known only as 'The Agency', is ensnared in a political conspiracy which finds him on the run from both Interpol and the Russian FSB (The successors to the KGB). The hunter becomes the hunted as he is chased across Eastern Europe while, at the same time, he tries to find out who set him up and why they're trying to take him out. Unexpectedly, the greatest threat to 47's survival may be the first stirrings of his conscience and the alien emotions awakened in him by Nika (Olga Kurylenko), a beautiful woman who gets herself wrapped up in the conspiracy and, consequently, 47's life.

LOVEFiLM Review Hitman

By Tom Charity from LOVEFiLM

Another video game-to-film adaptation, this flick sees a bald Timothy Olyphant as a hitman on the run from a determined Interpol agent...

A good watch

By ricoh (95 reviews) from Calne , 23 Apr 2013

A good action movie, that rattles along at a furious pace. Worth a watch. Wont be everybody's cup of tea, but well received in our house.

Hit the Stop button

By Bobsview (554 reviews) from Gloucestershire , 02 Apr 2013

Extremely gratuitous violent , flimsy plot, CIA Interpol meets Ninja Turtles. Adapted from a video game and that tells you all you need to know. No depth.

Action Packed

By a customer , 29 Aug 2012

I have never played the game but found myself enjoying this film. Engineered since birth and only known by number 47. Reminded me of the bourne films. Make the hit and get out no emotion, no attachments etc.

Action man

By Angiethecook (36 reviews) , 19 Dec 2011

I have not played this game but I enjoyed the film. It was well acted and had some good twists and turns that you didn't see coming. Plenty of action to keep you entertained, guns blazing and fists flying. It wasn't predictable and overall was quite good.
