I'm not surprised, the trailer was terrible, this only confirms what I thought :/

I hate when they say that these crappy Hitman movies are based on the game. The game series does not have horrible romances and action sequences. These "movies" are an embarrassment to the film crew who decided, for whatever stupid reason, to try to make a Hitman movie without any of the key tenants of Hitman.

I might be in the minority but I liked the Timothy Olyphant movie. Raylen Givens/Seth Bullock is the bomb. He's a Goddamn American Jedi.

Has to be said I enjoyed it too, and I'll be giving this one a try....albeit with low expectations.

DOOM and Hitman(the first one) are two movies that most people will say they didn't like, but I really liked them. They are fun movies.

I liked the last Hitman movie, this one however I despise with a passion.

AtomicGerbil3171d ago

It's a shame because Hitman is perfect movie material.

annoyedgamer3171d ago

Never underestimate Hollywood's uncanny ability to take perfect film material and make a mess of it. They literally have numerous examples of films to draw from such as the Bourne trilogy but instead they make this garbage.

MilkMan3171d ago

My thing is unless this movie tie-in is dlc for the new game, then later for that game.

Zefros3171d ago

They make a movie that has almost nothing to do with the games and just calls it hitman.... They need to stay true to the games and find a good writer and director. If you got those things, you will also get good actors.

I hope we get a good Last of us movie.

It’s the 25th anniversary this year?

I’d have assumed it would have gotten something like a remastered trilogy of the original games or a remake of the first game. Something for a 25th celebration.

Super lacklustre

A Deep Dive On all Things Hitman With The Voices Behind Agent 47 And Diana Burnwood

From PSU: "Ten years ago, the Hitman franchise was in a transitory state. Blood Money had become something of a classic and with Hitman Absolution there was a clear decision to push IO Interactive’s assassination sim series to a whole new level. That experimental, often divisive, entry turned out to be pivotal in what would follow.

Elements of Absolution, such as its accessibility and player-created content, would be mixed with the more traditional Hitman games’ sense of murderous creativity to birth the Hitman Trilogy 0f 2016-2021. A series that would take its creators on a turbulent journey of publisher changes, independence, and the eventual triumph of being handed the tantalizing 007 license."
