As for the lead, I didn't think he was nowhere near dark and cold enough. I think Jason Statham or Vin Diesel would've been better in the role.

As for the female lead, at least she was smokin hot, and not afraid to get nekkid.
Hitman

I do not agree with the previous comments:
this movie is not boring. it might not be the best movie but you're not gonna fall asleep on it.

I have never played the game but i knew what it was. The movie seems to follow what i know of the game but it didn't feel enough like the main character was a bad ass assassin. he was pretty chill compared to "The transporter" character who is in the same type of story line.

Acting wasn't bad. but the rest is meh. I give it a 6 because i wasn't overly bored with it but i wouldn't recommend a rental. Watch it when it plays on cable or something like that.

Overall score: 6/10
