Hitman was an enjoyable movie with references throughout towards to the video game series on which it is based on. They picked a good one (Timothy Olyphant-Scream 2, Live Free or Die Hard) to play the title character and he does so with style but also a fierceness as well. He dispatches any and all that come his way or end up and his already dead marks. From hand to hand combat, guns, sword fights with others like him from the Organization that trained, fed, clothed and made them into the powerful yet deadly freelance agents they are. It is touched on his background with the organization but hope it might be expanded on in a future movie. Entertaining, action packed and loaded with violence add a little bit of storyline and you have a fun and far more entertaining movie than i thought it could be. Usually i'm not too hyped over video games made into movies, but Hitman isn't like that at all.Read full review
Another movie based on a popular video game. Hmmmm...wellll, it's probably gonna be dull and teditious like the others. Ohh waait a minute, this is a pretty good movie! Timothy Olyphant from HBO's Deadwood is Agent 47, a hitman who gets his assignment from a unseen organization provided by a voice named Diana. 47 is pursed by an Interpol agent (Dougray Scott) and also unlike the video game 47 doesnt change into disguises ususally taken from the person he did or not kill. The Blu-Ray version was cooooool; it had a lot more extras than the original DVD. This was a great movie based on a video game with T. Olyphant delivering the goods on Agent 47. Hope the sequel is just as good!
47 has his own insignia. The symbol appears in Hitman: Codename 47 on the gates of Ort-Meyer's asylum, throughout his laboratory and is formed by Ort-Meyer's pool of blood when 47 kills him at the end of the game. It also appears in Hitman: Contracts on the floor of the cloning lab, this time as though it is the actual floor design, as well as on Ort-Meyer's belt buckle. The symbol is engraved on the handles of his custom AMT Hardballer pistols. It is also found on 47's equipment such as his laptop, briefcase and cell phone. In Silent Assassin it can be seen on the stained glass windows at the Gontranno sanctuary; however, this is just an easter egg. In the film, 47 wears a pair of silver cufflinks with his insignia enameled in red. Also, in some of the yellow books laying around in the first level of Blood Money it can be seen in a large black stencil-like pattern. One example is by the door that is picked open with a shotgun nearby.Read full review
The movie was in excellent condition, and I enjoyed watching it again after many years.
