October 8, 2009A personal fave of mine, just because I have always thought being a hitman would be cool :D

August 27, 2009not an entierly complete waste of time. I liked the part where he lets the girl out of the trunk and says "at least I got rid of the body"

June 1, 2009Not necessarily a bad movie but there is just nothing special or eye-catching about it. Acting isn't bad and the script isn't terrible but one could say it comes close to being boring and empty. Quantum of Solace Bond girl's first "big" role before Bond.

May 5, 2009This is actually ok, very true to the game ideas and not over the top. Its actually quite smart, I did lose the plot abit near the end, plenty of double cross, agents and dark suits running around but its still quite good. The plot is a the usual way you make a crappy idea or 'yo...( read more)

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
Hitman stands right on the threshold between video games and art. On the wrong side of the threshold, but still, give it credit. full review

Ty Burr, Boston Globe
There have been plenty of movies adapted from video games before, but Hitman may be the first one that actually feels like a computer wrote and directed it. full review

Pete Hammond, Maxim
It delivers top-notch action, dazzling gunplay and lots of fireworks. What more could we ask for? full review

Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
Plays like a music video without the music, a spectacle of shiny weapons, spurting blood, and Jesus Christ poses that would have benefited from more overlaid songs and less blabber. full review

March 26, 2008"Hey fellas just SMASHING through your hotel window.. Awe is that me your playing on that video game??" This film was beyond being in a corn field with the essence of "CornyNess". You just had to sit and laugh at how bad this movie actually was. The man character whom was the villain in the new "Die Hard" was way to comical for his role in this.. and sort of lost his acting along the way. This is why some video games such as "Tomb Raider" is a big hit to make into a movie and sum like this are better left to just being a video game series.
1 star ..if that -

January 26, 2008played all games... finished them all, all i can say is it is a good movie with good action, yet story line with the VG sucks, since when did 47 speak that much! have emotions! or even protect someone without getting paid! comeon go get hitman bloodmoney you will know what i mean!
the olyphant is thinner and faster than 47 and less ghostly.
it always had to be about a girl doesnt it! its much as disappointing as resident evil.. am not hating the movie am hating its not so parallel to the VG -
January 19, 2008omfg i love this movie cause i think hitman is asexy german white umm lol anywayz i have most of the games and timothy olyphant did a very good job but the part i hated was when nika was getting out of bed and was naked damn her lol
