    go to gamersupps.gg/elvis right now for a free sample pack and use code ELVIS for a free Ayylien sticker (only 300 available) and free shipping! Do it now or Agent 47 will show up at your house in the middle of the day, when your parents are home, without wearing a disguise, and with a very thin layer of hair, it's just barely noticeable, but that somehow makes it worse, like he'd be better off wearing a Marilyn Monroe wig with tights. He's coming. Don't say I didn't warn you.

      I like the action, but the games were intentionally silly in a lot of ways. There was a lot of hijink potential they didn't make use of. You could pretty much switch 47 out with anybody in these movies and you wouldn't suspect much. They should've done it like a heist movie where you first see picture in picture views of stuff 47 sees and key actions he takes alongside the effects of them, where he keeps slipping out of trouble or causing elaborate, subtle chicanery. And then maybe a direct chase or fight here and there

    Her face tattoo is a major part of their connection. He asks her about it and has a flashback of when he got the bar codes. 47 and the girl had shared trauma. Something about freedom and control over ones own life. And he didnt kill her because she did not react to his presence when she saw him in public. Meaning the agency lied about her being a loose end.

      I feel that elvis is too harsh on this movie for no reason. It is his monkey brain that missed the body-tattoo, institutionalized torture that 47 and the girl has in common among many other stuff. But no, watch elvis go she's hot RigHT? for 5 minutes straight. also both of them are sort of puppets of powerful people / organizations and they are pitted against each other. He killed armed swat teams who would have killed him too, but the girl is not even able to throw a punch .. so there is a bit of emotion there, this is in accordance with the games as well, Hitman Absolution

    In the first movie, if I'm not mistaken, he killed the real Belicoff at the start. It was Belicoff's body double who organized the hit as a means of taking over. There's a scene later in the film, after 47 kills Belicoff's brother, where we see Belicoff talking to the FSB agent. He goes into detail about the surgical operations needed to become a lookalike.
    Also, 47 doesn't kill Nika because she sees him in the public square when he's about to shoot her and she doesn't recognize him. Showing that she never witnessed anything, and this was just him being used to cover up loose ends.

    The idea of 47 in a romantic relationship in anyway is weird to me. Theres a cutscene in the first game where a chick kisses him and he shudders. It just makes sense to me that the genetically perfect clone born to kill would have no interest or time in romance.

      Sequel is garbage. First one had some redeeming qualities. But the 2nd one just derailed so hard. The director at the time promised his movie would do the games justice only to turn right around and say he thought the games were boring and nobody would want to see an assassin wear disguised and carefully kill his targets, but that the movie needed gratuitous action if it were to be successful. Well naturally he pushed away fans of the game which should’ve been the target audience smh

    So glad you mentioned Jason Statham, I saw a film where he plays an assassin (though it was a comedy) and he was AMAZING!! He felt almost like an alternate universe 47. They should definitely try again, but more in line with the World of Assassination trilogy this time. More serious and espionage focused, but there's plenty of room for humor (47 loves wordplay, apparently) and action, plus the overarching plot with Providence is already there!

    I like the first movie. It was obviously a way to make a hitman movie in somewhat alternative universe (like the diffrent look of other agents which shouldn't be hard to pull off back then), but it succeded at that. It was hitman enough, it was fun ride, and Timoty Olyphant is a mega chad that actually made this version of a character kinda work, more lighthearted hitman, more reminiscent of new hitman trillogy. That being said i wish there was an amazing Hitman movie but i can't imagine anyone taking the role other than original voice actor. But if it ever happen it has to be "old" Hitman, dark hitman from first few games, even including absolution that while had strange plot points, actually managed to make 47 character even more interesting and fitting.

    For the beginning scenes where they showed 47 as a child, they just re-used footage from the series "Dark angel" which also has people with barcodes, but on the back of their necks.
    I wonder if you can spot that in this movie, since they should have it on the back of their heads...

    A Hitman movie should be made like a slasher movie, with 47 being the antagonist, but one who obviously wins in the end. 47's face should never be shown, and he should be shown walking around in the background of some shots, in disguise. The real voice of 47 should also be used, because that is absolutely necessary💁🏻‍♀️

    When Mika says she was sold for $300, I just always assumed she was implying $300 grand. Which makes way more sense profits wise…plus people, especially in movies/tv, often abbreviate $$ amounts that’re in the hundreds of thousands to just a hundreds amount - $300 = $300,000. Kind of like how people who also say “300 large” are really saying $300,000.

    I think a great Hitman movie should be like a heist film with Agent 47 infilting a place to kill a target, starts with one plan, then has to invent a new plan when the old one goes awry, has to do a incredibly inventive kill in a ridiculous disguise, and then disappear while avoiding the most inconvenient circumstances. Basically, the average playthrough of Hitman, but representing all that makes the games great, while feeling like it could fit into the fames seamlessly. 47 should be played by a great deadpan actor with a very intimidating aura, who can do the most ridiculous things while being somehow still being scary af.
