Aug 24 2007Hitman Trailer B

There's something about this Hitman movie, and possibly the video game that I've never played, that's trying so desperately to be bad-ass that it's pathetic. The black suit, the unchanging demeanor, the slow deliberate movements, the bar code on his neck? What, were they out of trenchcoats and sunglasses? Give me a break.

This thing could have been pretty dark, just like the game is, but the actor...ehh. I think he and the director of photography probably ruined the entire movie.

PS-I actually like the Hitman game series btw.

The Hitman games are awesome.

But this movie seems that it will be beyond awful

Shut up your holes.
The movie will rock.
Bullets + babes + blowing up shit.
Who the hell needs a plot???????

I thought Vince was a fan of the games, and expressed some interest in the film?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

They should've used Billy Zane.

theres too much action, the games werent about going full frontal with the guns but going into an unknown location and figuring out smart sneaky ways to kill people, for example sticking a knife into a chicken and then sneaking it through security, gritty things like that. not the two submachine guns going in and killing 40 guys in slow motion...thats just not his style
anyway i sound like such a nerdy fan but whatever im a purist when it comes to video game characters and their style

"OK, lady, could you give us a description of the shooter?"

"Well, he was pretty average, he did have a bald head though."

"Anything else, ma'am, he shot 73 people, be kinda nice to catch him."

"Oh, yes, he had a big freakin' barcode tattooed on the back of his head."

"Well, that seems to be downright dumb thing for a hitman to have, are you sure… oh, wait, there he is"

*Cops arrest him.*

What are you talking about

Uwe Boll's the man!


I would have used a question mark after my first sentence, but "Uruwai" (koff koff) beat me to all of them.

Why if you never played the game, how dare can you judge the costume and the rest of the stuff from the things you've seen from this trailer ? you have no idea what this is all about, and that's very poor to say "ah that's shit" when you just don't know a thing about it.

Hitman games are really great, but this movie is gonna be gay anyway.

Rated R for homoeroticism.

@ 11 - LOL

Never played the game. Based on the preview, will never see the movie. Lame.

You obviously didn't play the games, maybe you should, because they rock. THe trailer looks just like the game, but with people in it and some gayish actor. For the rest I go with what's already said in here: babes, blowing up shit. It's turning me on like a madmen!

HITMAN is like BATMAN meets DA VINCI CODE meets CASINO ROYALE meets DIE HARD meets WHATEVER
Seems to be COOL!
I'm looking forward to the German release and the PG-rating. It's only interesting if it's NOT rated!

Superfish, you like shitty things, for real homie.

"HITMAN is like BATMAN meets DA VINCI CODE meets CASINO ROYALE meets DIE HARD meets WHATEVER"

that shit should just be on the trailer

Actually, a friend of mine go to read the script. Said it was top notch. Whether or not it gets ruined in direction/photography is another thing.

i agree with people that the game rocks but the movie looks like crap

Why is the guy from Smashing Pumpkins shooting people in a movie?
