I think I have already elsewhere pointed out that it is rare, a computer game properly be brought to the screen. With the exception of Silent Hill has to say simply that no attempt, even the most successful game to film, at least artistically challenging. TOMB RAIDER or the RESIDENT EVIL films could nevertheless won commercial success - but even that is denied most video game adaptations. Nevertheless, there are always clever Hollywood producers who think it's a good idea, mostly using for the youth known substances as a script writer to the task of assessing - shock! - Develop new ideas (This happened a few months ago in the form of MAX PAYNE)
HITMAN is also such a thing. The game was developed by Eidos, which also show up for the adventures of Lara Croft bosomy responsible, and appeared on PC and various consoles. Hitman: Codename 47 was so many fans that is now being crafted on the fifth installment of the series. So no surprise that filmmakers were aware of this success. Since the advent of the rumors about a film was Vin Diesel as a safe candidate for the role of the eponymous anti-hero - while diesel bald seemed well to have been his biggest qualification to the equally bald "47" to embody. In fact, Vin Diesel was definitely planned to give the main character of HITMAN, however, sprang from just before the hot phase of production. He was replaced by Timothy Olyphant, the general public shortly before become known as a villain in the fourth Die Hard. At his side, the producers, the young Ukrainian Olga Kurylenko, which operated here far more revealing than a year later in QUANTUM OF SOLACE. To the film, which for the most part in Eastern Europe and Turkey played to impose an appropriate stamp, they pledged the French Xavier Gens as director.
"Trust me, I know what I do!" "47" (Timothy Olyphant) is a hitman, a HITMAN. But no "Ordinary". He was brought as a child in the service of the mysterious organization , where he was trained and conditioned it to function as a perfect killing machine. He receives commissions anonymous, works alone and is very well paid for his services. When he receives the order in Russia, off the Russian President Belicoff (Ulrich Thomsen), everything sounds the first time after a routine mission. Even when it is opened, that the attack has to happen in public, that does not change 47's project. In fact, he is able to eliminate Belicoff four miles away with a head shot. Too bad that Belicoff, only a glancing shot will have come on the next day again before the camera. Worse still, a witness will be able to identify 47th The lone killer must respond quickly. Arriving at his destination, he realizes, however, that the lovely Nika (Olga Kurylenko) has never seen him before, and that his colleagues seem to have it aside from now on for him. In the hope that they could still prove useful to make 47 to hunt down the traitors. Here it is Interpol Commissioner Whittier (Dougray Scott), however, hot on the heels ...
One must expect to be the gene and all parties involved: HITMAN - ALL DIE ALONE (Hitman, 2007) makes it quite crash. Particularly bloody issue in the "Extended Edition", which is available on DVD to have her. Baller orgies, hand-to-hand combat and lots of explosions could reduce the inclined action fan in ecstasy. Can. Because, unfortunately, can even the most modest filmmaker not deny that the action sequences are held together only by a meager tired and unimaginative story. A killer who moves against his former client to war? Check out the Bourne trilogy, which succeeds on three films away to develop a much more consistent power curve, as it creates HITMAN in just 90 minutes.
"Honey, you should take necessarily reflect the views Shave legs " It is made of strips actually not technically bad As I said. The action is plentiful and the battle certainly also choreographed A real nice.." Wow "moment remains Additionally, we are unfortunately out involuntarily. funny moments, terrible dialogue and rather listless acting actors, of which Dougray Scott leaves even the best impression. Yes, Olga Kurylenko is beautiful to look at, but it plays so annoyed and bitchy, that is created for her character no sympathy.'s similar Olyphant, the figure already suffers to be able to show little emotion, but also to fight with thick logic errors in the plot added.
HITMAN bad really is not. Since you've already seen evil. But unfortunately there is not much good, what could be written about the film. He joins the long line of a regular computer game adaptations, you can leave in good conscience left. Action fans should reach for DVD rental. You will know after the end of the movie, why not buy HITMAN imperative.
