Okay, originally I wanted to see this movie at the theater but did not have the time. When I saw the movie on the shelf I couldn't wait to watch it. I have played the game and enjoyed it. I can hon... estly say that I'm glad I didn't spend $8.00 at the theater. The movie is okay, not spectacular. Some of the shooting scenes are good but overall not very interesting. The main character in this movie you never feel connected to him or what he is doing. His dialogue is sparse, I guess an attempt to make him look cold and tough, but it never realy works. I did like the lead female actress in this movie it helped keep the picture moving. Overall, the movie is okay, not great, not spectacular, but okay. Full Review

The movie was taken from a PC game that is a unique experience for each player, so no two "games" will ever be identical, thus the experience and impression of 'Hitman' varies from person to person. ... The movie adaptation of the character was excellent considering they were taking a character that was different things to different players. All in all, it held onto the feel of the game while adeptly turning a computer game into believable live action. Well done! 4 1/2 stars! Full Review

Hitman stands right on the threshold between video games and art. On the wrong side of the threshold, but still, give it credit.Full Review

Roger Ebert

Chicago Sun-Times

The best movie derived from a violent computer game we've ever seen. You can take or leave that kind of qualified high-five, but, for us, it was a thoroughly entertaining experience. Think of bargain basement "James Bond" amped up into TV den-sittin', mouse-clickin' overdrive. But with human actors.Full Review

Desson Thomson

Washington Post

As a movie on its own, it's simple monotony. Olyphant, affecting Clint Eastwood's Dirty Harry voice, is about as menacing as Mr. Clean, and the action scenes - whether the weapons are fists, feet, swords or guns - fly past without any tension or suspense. Hitman is a miss.Full Review

New York Daily News

Not a spectacular movie, but the action scenes are well shot, there's no shortage of R-rated gore and the plot moves along quickly enough to mask the fact that the whole endeavor is completely ridiculous.Full Review

There have been plenty of movies adapted from video games before, but Hitman may be the first one that actually feels like a computer wrote and directed it.Full Review
