Hitman 2

Did they steal the "You're locked in here with me" bit from Watchmen? :funny:

Anyway, looks better than I expected. The action looks decent, despite shoddy CGI. I thought the part where the agents or whatever were shooting cables at the car and then sliding down as 47 was shot at them looked cool. Plus, Zachary Quinto :up:.
 
Errrr once again they totally miss the point of Hitman's meaning. He's a silent assassin, not bending over backwards in broad daylight, causing everything to explode around him in action fests.

Where is the satirical narrative, disturbing violence and dark humour from the games? The tone is completely and utterly wrong.

Another poor attempt, just a dumb action film that will no doubt have terrible dialogue if the trailer is anything to go one.

Gutted but not really all that surprised.
 
Also, people made a good point that 47 lurks in the shadows. Does he have to kill all those people? All those soldier probably have no idea who 47 is, so in the trailer, he comes off as a mass-murdering bad guy.

Spot on mate. Once again this doesn't look like a Hitman film but a generic action one. Same guys' from the failed first attempt as well. I'll go see it but how can you mess up the premise of Hitman?
 
Lurking in shadows and killing one lone person doesn't make for a coolness factor. ****, I could do that.





:o
 
Yup...I agree...they totally missed the whole point of the character in order to make a generic action run-n-gun film.
 
And to think Agent 47 left Game of Thrones for this.

:o

When you kill a man in a dark alley with chloroform in St Petersburg that's cool.
 
Even the suit seems... ill fitting. Definitely didn't go to Kingsman Tailors in Saville Row.
 
Haha, I saw at the preview screening that the Kingsman tailor is an actual thing. The clothing line anyways.
 
I never understood how 47 never stands out when he's a skinheaded white guy with a f***ing bar code on his head. If I saw a guy walking around that looked like that, I think I'd notice him.

It is alarming, its all there for them already, its not like they have to even try that hard to come up with stuff for it with four or five games worth of characters and story, yet somehow they just keep getting it wrong, so wrong.

Where is the agency? where is Diana?

Even Absolution which wasnt a great Hitman game had better characters and story than this, heck it had an atmosphere at least in keeping with Hitman's style, this just looks so sterile and generic.

And dont even get me started on a Hitman flying a helicopter into building. :doh:
 
Instead of being bald, he should have a mullet like Chuck Norris in his Hitman movie.
 
It's like the makers of this new film watched the last one and learned absolutely nothing.
 
Then why call it a "reboot"? It's more like a..."boot."

Yes. A stinky, smelly, crappy little boot. With a hole in it.
 
This is just pathetic. The series has so much excellent material to adapt into a feature length film but they consistently opt to take the common denominator route and create a generic over the top action film.

Won't be seeing this. At all.
 
I thought the trailer was alright, I'm going to see it.

Why **** would a police officer bring a loaded gun into a ****ing interrogation room :mad:

I hate when a film does something that stupid and then expects the viewer to be impressed. It reminds me of a Reno 911 bit where the guy locked in a cell asks to play with a gun , the cop hands it over and the rest is history.

Yeah this is ridiculously stupid , but not in a Furious 7 kind of way.
