A professional assassin known only as Agent 47 (Timothy Olyphant) gets caught up in a dangerous political takeover. He flees across Eastern Europe, hoping to find out who set him up and why. However, his growing attachment to a beautiful but traumatized young woman poses as great a threat to his survival as that of the Interpol and Russian agents who are hunting him down.

Critics Consensus

Hitman features the unfortunate combination of excessive violence, incoherent plot, and inane dialogue.

The title is probably misspelt -- there should be an S in front.

Gone With The Twins

The creators have gone to great lengths to showcase the blood, bullets, and babes requisite for a proper translation of the popular assassin adventure.

Rated: 6/10

Fans of video-game inspired action flicks are likely to find enough moments of action, gore and gunfighting to make the whole thing worth watching once it hits home video.

I think this movie received way more hate than it deserves. Is it perfect? No it is not…. But if you are a fan of the game and like action movies, the movie is pretty entertaining. Timothy Olyphant was a great pick for agent: 47 and played the part very well. His acting was definitely solid enough to carry the lead role. The movie had decent storyline and a good supporting cast with Olga Kurylenko as the sexy distraction from the action. Don’t over think the movie and just enjoy it for what it is. After all … It is based on a video game.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

It was beautiful to me. I loved the original game. It's nothing like that but it's entertainment. It's just enough information to give us an idea of the characters. For me that's enough. The action is perfect. All in all. Perfect movie for me.

I think script could have been better because there are so many issues with this movie that can easily be solved just working on script. Action sequences are not good but given the fact that its from 2007 one can say its alright but script issue is big

Very good action scenes. In short, it fulfills the objective of a movie: having a good time watching an action movie.

Timothy Olyphant is brilliant and gives the role his all, but the movie itself is just mediocre. Worth a look for fans of the game or of action movies.
