Great movie with great action. I have to say it's probably the best movie based on a video game I have seen to date. Most people watching this movie however, do even know it's based off of a video game. I give it an 8 out of 10 for great action and special effects and the half naked chick walking around half the time.

I take a "guilty until proven innocent" stance on video game based movies. I do want to check this one out though.

I'm still bitter that Timothy Olyphant got the part that was made for this guy:

I don't think he could have pulled it off. Olyphant is great in this movie.

Let me watch the flick and I'll get back to you on this. :thumbsup:

It's the personality that Olyphant brings to the character. I'm not saying that Jones couldn't do it, I just think he couldn't have pulled off the parts it took some really good personality to do.

From what I know from the many Hitman games I've played, Agent 47 has an stone cold, icey personality. That's Vinnie to a tea. (not to mention he's the spitting image of 47)

In all the Olyphant movies I've seen, he generally plays the goofy or cocky sidekick of a main character.... I dunno- I just couldn't see him pulling off the role of Agent 47.

I hear good things though- this one is next on my list.

Watched it last night.... it was disappointing, to put it mildly.

Plot holes and inconsistencies, the female sidekick, and an unconvincing preformance(in my opinion) from Olyphant are my main complaints. This movie strayed too far away from the video game.

It was like watching a bad Borne Identity.

this seems like it would be a good movie only if you haven't played the games. kind of like doom. i didn't think it was that bad but i had never played doom 3. fans of the game, however, hated it.

I never really played Hitman games. I thought the movie was just so-so. Decent action, just sort of another mindless popcorn muncher.

I saw Doom on TNT the other day. It is horrible. One of the worst movies I have ever seen.

It seemed like the whole movie took place in an area about the size of my apartment. That kind of made it pretty dull for me. Also, the fight scene at the end looked like Peter Pan and Captain Hook the way they were flying all over the place.
