The Big Hit- is a excellent film. Its a very underrated slapstick comedy action drama film. Mark Walhberg and Lou Diamond Phillips are excellent in this film.

The plot: Affable hit man Melvin Smiley (Mark Wahlberg) is constantly being scammed by his cutthroat colleagues in the life-ending business. So, when he and his fellow assassins kidnap the daughter of an electronics mogul, it's naturally Melvin who takes the fall when their prime score turns sour. That's because the girl is the goddaughter of the gang's ruthless crime boss. But, even while dodging bullets, Melvin has to keep his real job secret from his unsuspecting fiancée, Pam (Christina Applegate).

If you havent seen this film, than go watch it. Its really good.

It started good. I liked his domineering attitude with her once she was at his place but then I sort of lost the plot... Why was he doing this to all these women? Why was he trying to get into the mob boss' good books?

The writing styles seemed a little stilted at times, rather formal, with it not having shortened wording, i.e. what is, that is instead of what's, that's and I found it a little off-putting. That's just me, though.

I liked Colt/Cole right from the off because he'd always loved her and no matter what he tried to make himself believe he couldn't hurt her or let her get hurt (which tugged at my heart-strings) and Rose/Lily was strong willed and also crazy about Colt/Cole.
