I was advised by one of the critic's reviews to watch this movie for the beauty without worrying too much about the plot. Maybe that's why I liked it.

Someone did a great job choosing the locations - Singapore looks breathtaking. And you see a lot of it. Seriously, it actually makes you think, what are you doing spending you life in some other place? On the other hand, the more I think about the plot, the less I like it. It's not that ridiculous for an action movie - if you can accept the premise of genetically engineered assassins, it actually makes some sense. It's not that confusing - there is an organization that our Hitman and an army of other superkillers work for, and a rival organization trying to build a similar army by tracking down a geneticist, the original creator of the first army, through his daughter Katia (who is searching for her father on her own). Got it? What might be surprising is that the Hitman, who was sent to stop the rival organization, DOES NOT follow instructions and does not kill everyone whom he was ordered to. Some scenes and ideas are ridiculous (Katia disassembling both of Hitman's guns and leaving him and her seemingly defenseless, why? Because she was bored), I just ignored them waiting for something better to appear on the screen. Extra points, however, to the filmmakers for not making the pseudoscience in the movie so prominent that it ruins it (like it did ruin "Lucy" some time ago, for example, or most of the Marvel works - but I might be one of the few who dislike Marvel for it). My actual problem with "Hitman: Agent 47" was that I simply didn't like what Katia was turning into (or turning out to be?) during the course of the movie.

No comment about the movie's similarity to the video games (which, I guess, there isn't any). Great cast (Zachary Quinto!)… Expand

As usual the critics are complaining that an action movie is an action movie and not arthouse caviar. While this movie has many great sequences it's pacing is kind of tiring. It's like drinking Red Bull non stop. Overall it's worth a watch.As usual the critics are complaining that an action movie is an action movie and not arthouse caviar.

Yes, the evil rich guy is a bit Dr. Evil but we watch action movies for the action not the rich family history of the bad guys. Entertaining but derivative. We're all spoiled now.… Expand

Although true that the hitman game uses mostly stealth and this movie involves mostly action, being honest Id rather watch a movie with action than just a while movie about a guy sneaking around takig out guards one by one. The point is thatAlthough true that the hitman game uses mostly stealth and this movie involves mostly action, being honest Id rather watch a movie with action than just a while movie about a guy sneaking around takig out guards one by one. The point is that his skills that surpass humans is being shown greatly, plus there is a stealth scene in the movie that was intriguing. Also the movie has twists that leave you shocked and interested. Combat is well performed and realistic. A few elements that were off, such as an inhaler being used to treat severe terminal cancer, but other than that a great movie.… Expand

the movie was quite good. i expected it to be much worse based on the reviews but the plot made sense and the characters were well enough developed. The actors did well and the visuals kicked ass.

If u like action movies you will like this one for sure. If you liked the game you will probably like the movie even though there are differences. There was nothing awful about the movie to warrant a score below 5.… Expand

I don't get why you people are so stubborn to say that Hitman the games ALLWAYS is about stealth. Wrong! You can choose if you want to close a contract slow, stealthy and use maybe several hours, or do it the easy way: Kill all the "bad guys" and move on like in this movie. If 47 (Friend) would go stealthy all the way, this movie then would last for 5 and 1/2 hours. I liked this movie better that 2007, because Timothy Olyphant just didn't fit as 47. He fits to be a pedophile child molester better than an assassin, with his freakish face. Only thing I didn't like with Hitman: Agent 47, is that Katia could kick and kill everybody's asses. Hitman is Hitman. No one is better, even if some are close. Critics can go eat a cinnamon bun… Expand

Don't let the negative reviews put you off from this movie. Seriously.
Hitman: Agent 47 is really enjoyable action movie with some clever dialogues, pretty decent story and favorable acting by Rupert Friend as an agent 47.

You will see some cool stealth action scenes in the movie, and few more effective ones as well, but hey... who didn't tried to play loud with guns through the game, right? That's why you shouldn't listen to what some folks say about lacking of stealth and quiet stuff in this movie!!!

I'm giving it 10 out of 10 because this movie doesn't deserve so low score!!!… Expand

I seriously do not get the hatred for this film. It was very entertaining and the action was great. I probably even liked this more than American Sniper. It was very intense and action-packed. (85/100)

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I, alongside many other millenial (or so we hate to be called, apparently) grew up with the Hitman franchise as our gold standard for assassin video games so it makes sense we would judge this movie harshly.

As for many of the pointless add-ons this movie brought to the franchise it was still a decent movie. If you asked me to buy it or recommend it, I would probably say no to buying and yes to watching it a few times every few years. The story is in the decent category. Agent 47 is contracted to find and eliminate a man who other Agents have failed to kill before. Then he meets a neo-Agent who just so happens to be the daughter of the creator of the Agent program. Also, there is a man who seemingly is immortal (getting shot and electrocuted just doesn’t seem to cut it when killing villian’s anymore). Now even though they added her as the pinnacle of the Agent legacy it still isn’t that far-fetched to say it never happened in the story which makes it feasible that it could happen in the movie. This by itself added more to Hitman itself than just doing your run of the mill one man sneaky Rambo. It was unique and stayed true to the story.

The “Hollywood” in this movie was pointlessly (but understandably) added to make this movie more bearable to watch. If we had 47 sneaking everywhere it wouldn’t be fun to watch, now would it? That said, the gunfights in public were too outlandish for me.

The build up to the ending was great by the way. We started off thinking we knew who the target was and then found out it was someone (someone’s) in this case. Good use of misleading us and in my opinion when its done in a way that drops hints but that we can’t tell its coming then its okay in my book.

Overall this movie is a decent one to watch, just don’t let your dogmatic views cloud your view of what makes a movie good and you’ll be able to watch this.… Expand

Just saw it on IMDB and... wow. The visuals are stunning but the thing that stands out that the story is consistent and the acting is spot on. Never heard of most of the leads but they are great. Is it over the top and are agents super-human? Yes, but that's part of the premise.

The movie takes itself seriously and doesn't goof around. I wish there was more.… Expand
