It's formula, but formula done well.

“Dusk for a Hitman” is a husk of a great film.

It's a decent crime film if you don't mind the fact that you already know all the beats.

Josh Bell

Crooked Marquee

The period detail of Montreal in the late 1970s and early 1980s is impressive, and St-Jean stages some suspenseful set pieces.

Rated: B-

Todd Jorgenson

Cinemalogue

It’s impossible to sympathize with Donald given his brutally violent acts as the film unspools a mildly intriguing yet thematically mundane and morally ambiguous redemption story.

Jeffrey Lyles

Lyles' Movie Files

It’s competently made. Performances are solid and the action scenes have strong adrenaline spikes moments of intensity. Still, there’s a spark missing to help it stand alongside elite hitman films.

Rated: 6/10
