Based on the world wide videogame franchise phenomenon, Hitman follows a highly trained silent assassin, known only as Agent 47, who after learning of a plot against him possibly stemming from his organizations HQ, he is quickly thrown into a game of cat and mouse with interpol agent's quickly closing in on him.

Timothy Olyphant stars as Agent 47 in this barrel blazing, hardcore action/thriller story of violent retribution.

Fantastic stunt action, edge of your seat combat sequences & superb special effects.

Actually considered the worst of the two (unless you've actually seen both, then ya know better) this is one of the closest I've seen to a perfect videogame movie adaptation.

Kudos

I need to bleach my brain now

F***ed-Up Action Thriller of the Highest Caliber

I checked this out from the library because someone told me that it's Josh Brolin's finest performance, and that might actually be true. It's a brutal film, not just the action scenes but emotionally as well, and it's likely to surprise you. But here's the thing: you get to the end of the movie and all you can think is, "Damn! Now THAT'S f***ed up..." And I don't even swear, typically! I'm not sorry I saw it. But I don't think I'll be seeing it again.
