Leave your thoughts about Hitman: Agent 47.
| Screen InternationalFionnuala HalliganConsistently off by a beat, Hitman: Agent 47 fails to ever click into gear. |
| AV ClubJesse HassengerAgent 47 is just slightly less dull than its disavowed predecessor — or at least its dullness seems less active, because it doesn’t turn anyone as inherently interesting as Olyphant into a dour-faced killing machine. |
| Consequence of SoundBlake GobleWasn't Hitman just a post-Matrix drip anyways? Like, are teenagers still enraptured by jet-black attire, cyber-punk imagery, and slow-mo gunplay? |
| Blu-ray.comBrian OrndorfA decidedly more plasticized version of the same old story, replacing previous star Timothy Olyphant with Rupert Friend, though I doubt anyone will notice. |
| Globe and MailCalum MarshIt’s tempting to think Hitman undermines any beauty it musters with its habit of ridiculousness. |
| Detroit NewsTom LongAs such films go, it's efficiently done juvenilia. |
| BeliefnetNell MinowThere is literally a shot of a staircase in this film that is more arresting than any of the blood-spurting injuries inflicted along the way. |
| The VergeBryan BishopAmidst a barrage of cringe-worthy dialogue, incomprehensible action set pieces, and incoherent dramatic turns, I started thinking, "Surely, somebody could have done better than this." |
| Assignment XAbbie BernsteinHitman: Agent 47 does feel like an actual film, with attention to detail from writers Skip Woods and Michael Finch and the ability to build narrative and momentum through imagery from director Aleksander Bach. |
| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzLike previous robot hitman films, this one also sucks. |
