It’s hard not to feel like one has entered a certain dimension of video-game logic while watching Hitman, a lightly enjoyable action-suspense movie indeed based on a popular and bloody game about a mysterious hired gun with a bar-code tattoo on his bald head and a number (47) in lieu of a name. Living like a chaste monk while slipping past borders to kill his targets, 47 (Timothy Olyphant of Deadwood) moves like a determined shark and speaks softly to his contact at the enigmatic 'the Organization,' which raises cast-off children to become well-paid assassins. Fruitlessly pursued by an Interpol cop (Dougray Scott) who can never get sovereign governments to cooperate, 47 has no trouble slipping in and out of countries to ply his trade. Until, that is, he’s set up to take a fall in Russia by shooting a national leader who is promptly replaced by a lookalike double. Suddenly on the run, 47 has to retrace his steps and formulate a lethal plan for extricating himself from a trap. Caught in the chaos is the lovely Nika (Olga Kurylenko), forced into sex slavery by 47’s new enemies and the one person who seems uniquely qualified to break through 47’s many personal barriers. Directed by France’s Xavier Gens, Hitman features loads of bloody mayhem and unabashed moments of pulp absurdity, such as a scene in which 47 and three other Organization killers agree to fight one another respectfully, then proceed to pulverize each other with swords and fists. As fodder for gamers, however, Hitman is packed with visuals and dramatic moments that seem so odd on the big screen until one realizes they are basically placemarkers for the video-game edition. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - Hitman review
I thought that this was a great movie! I liked it as much as the Bourne series, lots of action and a lot of fun! Anyone who is an action movie lover will love this movie.
Rating: - action
this actordo a better job than all those new james bonds movies, exellent movie recomenced
Rating:  - For the gamers
If you loved the game you'll enjoy the movie, it got all the great stuff from the game in it and many scenes feel like home. However if you didn't like the game or never even heard of the game, this movie is just another action movie with a vague plot.
For me it was like visiting an old friend.
Rating: - Incredible action movie
Given that I do not like the Hitman video game series, I had low expectations for this movie, but, WOW, was I proven wrong. This movie was incredibly well done and I could not believe that I could like a movie based off of a video game so much.
First of all, picturing Olyphant as Agent 47 seemed like too much to handle, given that he is a very serious actor in a role where he almost never talks, but he does a great job with the action and emotions, whether letting them out or holding ... Read More
Rating: - Thank god it's good.
At first I was a little sceptical about this movie because from past experiences movies can rarely reflect the ambience or the content of the games.In order to reach a wider audience, movie makers usually tone down the action and adult content drastically.
Not so in this case, thankfully director created a very well adaptation of the game.Our hero, or antihero, may look a bit on the softer side but proves himself to be brutal and deadly when necessary.Also Ms. Olga Kurylenko shows ... Read More
