@@eidolon9625 Literal garbage can viewed through your eyes, I don't know what type of art or what you're talking about so I can't tell but murder isn't an art. You just don't refer to it as the "art of murder"
Well to be fair, the first two Hitman games had a handful of levels that are action-driven. Doesn't make this movie any good, but it wouldn't be far-fetched to see some kind of action to happen in the Hitman franchise.
I find it hilarious how Diana supposedly sends 48 because she didn't trust 47, yet in the actual games, (SPOILERS TO HITMAN 3) she trusts her life with him SEVERAL TIMES. Hell, in the final open level of HITMAN 3, she literally isn't even phased when she is about to be killed, simply because she knows 47's there. "Good, I was starting to worry." "Were you?" "No."
The ending to that level is also probably the biggest form of trust ever sure, some people would say that Diana betrayed 47, but she didn’t she actually did that so she could hand them over to Arthur Edwards, and she knew that Arthur Edwards wouldn’t want to kill him because he said that he would never throw anything away. That’s useful as she said in Mendoza Arthur Edwards is cocky and that was his downfall.
@@youreverydayhellknight4257 Diana played both hands, she wanted the power from Arthur and bet on 47 to actually eliminate him from her path to Providence's controller but incase that didn't happen and 47's memory was wiped clean she could use it like a weapon and gain that power sleazily while also exacting revenge from 47 for her family's death. Think about it, how was she sure that 47 won't be strapped to a bed inside a capsule while guards aimed their guns to his head while injecting him with the serum? Either it is a weak plot writing or what I said before she took a gamble and 47's plot armour saved him.
@@wagner_108 Have you played blood money? It was basically blood money 2.0, which means it happened exactly as dude said: She knew Arthur Edwards wouldn't kill him, and that 47 would finish the job. She forgave 47 for her parents.
Hitman Game: Kill as little non targets as possible Hitman movie: Kill everyone if you can and fire your unsilenced weapon in a train station then your a proper hitman
The fact that a game in which you play as the perfect killing machine punishes you for killing people, even armed guards, has always bothered me, though.
@@ScepticGinger89 your a professional hitman not a terrorist, your target is your priority and must be eliminated with as little human caladerle as possible, because as sniper from tf2 said "professionals have standards" , go play fps/tps if you just want to mindlessly shoot people
@@ScepticGinger89 Agent 47 isn't the perfect killing machine, he's the perfect HITMAN. He can't withstand a whole squad of soldiers directly attacking him, but he can easily set up assassinations where nobody will ever know what happened, when, why or how. Hence, as an assassin, his mission is to only kill the required individuals and not random civilians or guards.
My older brother and I always had this belief that a Hitman movie would be best as a comedy movie. This would be perfect, as everybody else would be extremely confused and the audience would be dying laughing at how stupid the methods used are, while Agent 47 himself is the serious character in the movie. Imagine an action scene that is crafted beautifully, but instead of explosions and gunfights, Agent 47 beats the shit out of every person in the room with a spaghetti can. It would be amazing.
@@jonahhensley7779 Exactly. It would be a masterpiece. Just imagine the John Wick scene in the club where he keeps killing the guards as the camera moves, but instead its Hitman 47 beating the shit out of people with blueberry muffins.
Its just a gathering of a bad writer, producer and director that want to rip off one of the best badass character and hitman youll ever know to make money cuz they dont care and think youll like it becuz "Oh, but its Agent 47!"
The movie didnt understand that you cant make a movie off of a video game franchise about getting creative and unique kills and stealing peoples clothing
Remember in Hitman Bloodmoney when you had to find a guy during Mardegras, kill him, and then kill his own hired hitmen who were hired to kill you. The level is effectively about assassins being hired to kill each other and 47 coming out on top.
Theres also tons of levels in that game where there are hidden targets that are rival assassins. Theres one where you go to a playboy mansion-esque place to kill a pornographer and one of the strippers is a contract killer who pulls a gun on you. Then there's the Hell/Heaven party mission where you have to stop an arms deal, there are also two hidden targets, a singer dressed as an angel and a waiter dressed as a demon who you have to also kill
That actually would've been the only cool part about the movie if Agent 48 just shot 47 without warning and then killed the target while she's in a state of disbelief and horror.
I’m pretty sure he is agent 47 he looks a lot more like him and the main one didn’t talk to Diana for the whole film so... yeah call me an idiot if you won’t
Imagine this: A TV miniseries starring Agent 47, but he's not the leading character with the most screen time. Instead, it centers around charismatic fun characters which are his targets, and they all are connected to an overarching plot even though they have their own dedicated episodes (kinda like in the new Hitman game). And occassionally, scenes cut to Agent 47 preparing and arriving at destinations. While we follow his targets, we get glimses of him in the background, as he's taking on disguises, interacting with objects/people while tracking and following his targets (kinda like in the movie It Follows). If anything needs further clarification of what killing methods he's gonna use, everything turns into a split-screen (like in Blood Money) and you get to see what he's doing at the same time as you watch the target. What I'm basically saying is, the Hitman franschise would work fantastically with the slasher format.
You pretty much nailed the concept^^ Oh also a little extra, the end credits could be a newspaper article of the killed victims (Like in Blood Money at the end of every mission)
Well, that's the thing. Are the Hitman games suspenseful games? The only game I'd argue is was Absolution, because that took on a more conventional action/thriller movie plot, making Agent 47 vulnerable, and since that's what the movie business is interested in making, it's no wonder why the movies has been so bad since they're doing the complete opposite of what the franchise is known for; creative or/and badass assassinations without being noticed. The most faithful and fun cinematic experience you can make out of Hitman I truly believe is going the horror movie route, following the targets and making Agent 47 the killer lurking in the shadows, because that's certainly how I feel when I play the games. It would be a very niche (and sadistic) kind of entertainment though, that's for sure.
Yep you nailed it. Although I wouldn't go the classical horror movie route. Most of the times, you don't even know he is coming. Horror movies have this clear and seemingly unbeatable antagonist, that the characters run away from. I don't think it would work in this case. Having him unseen, unnoticed yet present would be ideal. Your concept would work nicely, for example a group of collegues who are involved in some shady business, to make it more morally ambiguous, having a party at a villa in Spain. If you were to watch two plots happening at the same time at the same place, with split screens to show them intertwining. The main focus is on the targets, but you get few shots now and then of 47 setting his plan in motion, basically orchestrating their deaths in real time. The stakes are raised each time one of them dies because the others are beginning to suspect something is happening. They could even blame each other, because they wouldn't know that the Agent 47 is there. There is a lot of potential. Too bad they turned it into a terminator clone. Even the previous version with Olyphant was better in that regard because the film was basically about him trying to salvage a failed mission/set up.
Remove: - stealth - robotic training - 47's mysterious personality and ethic values (no kill rule even if he doesn't feel emotions supposedly) - htiman's unique skills and high intelligence - robotic but funny and interesting social interactions - infiltrating in any place to do any job, blending in, being a ghost - exotic locations - blank slate appeareance, no emotions revealed + acting disturbingly calm while people are dying and stuff - badass one liners and badassery in general Keep: - suit, barcode and a tie You got yourself a Hitman movie!
Pop quizz: Tell me one strong point and one weakness of 47 He's amazing at deception, disguising, planning and executing a plan to kill a target without being seen He's fricking fragile, and not meant for direct combat, I thought the games made that pretty clear
Meh, not sure, the game tells you that he can shoot a gun, and GOD he is good at it, but he is still a human clone, just enhanced, so if he takes a bullet he is going to feel the pain like anybody else and he can also die like anybody else. Ps. The second game and the evidences in others tells us that he confronted his clones in open combat and he also confronted the asylum and SWAT teams when he was there to kill Odon Kovacs and Ort-Meyer afterwards, so for me... He is pretty good in combat. One weakness for him? Pretty hard to find one, maybe this, but again i dont think it probably fits in, but maybe his regrets, the games tells you about how agent 47 tends to regret, or try to regret his past, he has some conflict in his mind, yet it never really affects in, so... Really hard to find a weakness in this guy
It could be a good movie but would needed people who k ow how the games play etc hitman is a stealth game but you hide in plain sight acting as someone you really aren't
Jack B it could be a good tv show, every episode could be a new target or targets, each episode could be 1 hour long so it would be more realistic as we see agent 47 subdue people and hide the body then take their clothes, it would be so epic
I honestly do think it would make interesting movie in aspects of what kind of person 47 is and what he does in he's spare time. Although im leaning more against liking the idea of hitman being an actual series where each episode (hell even a season if just done very properly) is all about planning and preparing and then pulling off the actual hit. I dont think movie would be long enough to showcase what kind of life 47 is living.
Hit man could have made a really good movie if they’d actually focused on him killing people in creative ways while still having at least a somewhat mediocre story.
not like the games had incredible stories anyway except ifyou wanna be very optimistic, Absolution. But if the story is gonna be meh like the games they could have made something like the game, its like they grabbed the last 5 minutes of Blood Money (aka Requiem) and turned it into a shitty John Wick clone
Despite the fact that Timothy Olyphant says Hitman is the only movie he would've not done if he could have a career do-over, he was definitely the best Agent in the film series. He at least tried his best to convey the character with his personality, movement and stealth. This is like how the first Mortal Kombat was loveable but not that great, but its sequel is maybe the chinciest looking and just plain bad action movies ever released in theaters.
Although Tim's movie was filled with inaccuracies, he made a perfect Hitman personality wise. I very much still enjoy that movie, he was great, and at the very least lived up to some of my expectations.
The 2007 version woth Timothy Olyphant was actually pretty damn good. Not perfect. Was a little cheesy and tried too hard with making us care about Agent 47 wanting to stop being a coldblooded human robot because of some hooker he saved, but still. It focused more on espionage, disguises, stashed weapons, escape plans, etc. Instead of turning it into some damm fast and the furious movie like this one. Also, the whole thing with the Hitman games is the wide variety of unique locations around the world and different situations for him to stealth through. If someone could grasp that, they might have the basis of a good Hitman movie on their hands.
That one was still shit. He never at all attempts to be stealthy, and just shoots his way through every situation. At one point, he gets into a fucking sword fight with a bunch of other assassins, which is the most out of character thing he could do. Its better than this movie I guess
@@DeadManSinging1 Wasn't 47 basically trapped in the bus with the 48's surrounding him? I will give you the weapons dealer part where 47 exposes himself though. That was gobshite.
@@Ticketman99 The real 47 would never let himself get into that situation and IF HE DID, he wouldn't do some bullshit "lets die with dignity" shit and have a sword fight with them, he'd shoot them all in the face
@@DeadManSinging1 have you ever played hitman 2 shogun showdown level? its literally the same thing, after we killed hayamoto, 4 ninjas jumped and fight with a sword, now imagine if you can't load the game or restart the level, i think it make sense actually
This movie is like anti hitman. 47 was never the kind to go guns blazing apart from that mediocre absolution game. The movie should have focused on 47 travelling around the world just doing his job, finding ways to get around an impenetrable fortress, at the end of the movie just connect the few sublots together with a figure in the middle and bam you got a hitman movie.
@ Well codename 47 was more of a test run for hitman games. So some missions like the Columbia missions and the final mission were there because the stealth wasnt fully realized yet and you ask anyone what the worst missions in hitman are and they will point you towards codename 47s shooter missions. While on the other hand the best missions are the two pure stealth missions that being the chinese resturant and hotel assasination. The series didnt really make its presence known till hitman 2.
@ Actually the only place in hitman 2 the game where you have to murder someone other than the target is the final mission even the ninjas can be avoided if youre fast enough.
@@nathanielstanford3115 Oh yeah Im in agreement with you there the last 3rd of that level is programmed preety poorly unless youre nearly perfect with your approach youre gonna get spotted you really have to use some unusual strategies to get by undetected such as hugging the old lady npc to safely get through the security door.
You're wrong, the reason why Agent 47's gun went off is because ever since Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull people use defective firing when the plot needs it.
When I first saw this movie and how 47 was being portrayed as a villain in the first twenty minutes, I thought it was going to be an awesome movie. Agent 47 as the main antagonist? What could possibly go wrong? You know...besides that not being the case at all.
Recently saw the film for myself, the floorplates on his magazines say 38 super, although it is said they are 45s. Did 47 just pick up his silverballers in Mexico?
Clearly, they’re reverse wildcats with a .38 case necked up to a .45 projectile. If that doesn’t make any sense to you, then you’re clearly not a worldwide assassin.
i don't know if you noticed or just didn't care to mention but agent 48 was also carrying what looked like the iconic dual silverballers. It's almost as if this movie knew how to make a decent adaptation but decided to go with this garbage. Anyway great video, keep up the good work!
@@sinenomine8739 Who said it's a reference to blood money? The duck was all the way from codename 47, when a patient in the asylum asks for a rubber duck that you can find.
About the casting: I don't get,why they don't cast Jason Statham.I mean the guy looks perfect for the role,is an established name and can pull off,that ''stoic,baddas killer''-shtik.Hell,Jason Statham starred in ''The Mechanic'',which has a very similar premise(cold,methodical assasin,killing people).
I think the original was written with Statham in mind but unfortunately he`d already committed to other movies,otherwise yes he would have been perfect
So when this movie was released, I was at basic training. On family day, my family and I went to go see a movie. It was either this or a Man From Uncle. My dumbass not being able to see any of the trailers for this being a massive Hitman fan went to see this movie on my family day..... THIS. Instead of A Man From Uncle.... I hate myself
From certain angles the actor looks like 47 but i’m so glad someone else finally gets my point about his head, i tried explaining this to my friends and they just thought i was completely fucking mental. Edit: Also i was a bit confused because during the early parts of the film the cinematography and dialogue frames 47 like a resident evil villain, ominously chasing the main character.
he wasn't stealthy though. inhuman and creepy as fuck? definitely. but 47 is not really a mass murderer kind of guy. he just gets the job done no questions asked, even if he has to wear a chicken costume to stay unnoticed. he's cold but he does have a human side. his relationship with Father Vittorio and even his sense of humour are evidence that he isn't a total robot as some assume for some reason.
@@sunsetman22 True. I feel like people who view 47 as an emotionless clone either never really played the games or skipped all the story beats which honestly are pretty good at humanizing 47.
As a German, my biggest question is this: How the hell did this guy even get a gun. Unless you're police it is borderline impossible to get a big-ass gun like that, and I doubt that supressors are legal.
How to make a proper hitman movie in 10 steps. Step 1: Actually play the game to get a feeling of how it works. Step 2: Set it in multiple locations that make it feel unique. Step 3: Recreate and come up with the best creative kills. Step 4: Have an original story or base it on one of the games like the five fathers story. Step 5: Have the voice actor of Diana Burnwood appear in the film. Step 6: Don't over edit the film and have an amazing soundtrack. Step 7: Have good actors. Step 8: See if you actually are a filmmaker who can actually follow these steps. Step 9: Don't be Hollywood or Uwe Boll. Step 10: Know that there's one or more person in the comments going to complain about this. You know who you are so zip it because I know your going to complain.
14:20 i feel like this scene deserves abit more credit, before he kicks the table, the interrogator mentions the rifle has a hair trigger, meaning the rifle can be discharged much easier, therefore, 47 kicking the table to set it off isnt completely unlikely
"According to Jacob Andersen, lead designer of Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, Agent 47 went from being "a mean old hairy guy" to having "hi-tech glasses" before getting to his current design. ... The character of 47 is voiced in the video game series by David Bateson, who was also the basis for 47's appearance." You guys think it's a fucking coincidence that a bald black-suit-wearing David walked in to meet with IOi, and they already had an identical guy to him designed and planned out in the game???

Hey Guys! This video is finally freed from TH-cam Copyright hell. Next up is Everything Wrong with Yugioh Season 5. I might do a recommendation video on a small indie game ive been playing and that would be only a few minutes long and wont take any time away from the yugioh video. Hope you enjoyed this one and see ya soon Since people keeping mentioning this let me clarify. When every review website has all their reviews range between 8-9.5/10 a 7 looks mediocre. Even using the school grading system there is still 7 failing grades and the rest are middle of the pack meh. A 7 might not be that bad on its own but when you come off a 10/10 game like Blood Money getting a 6-7 average is embarrassing.
I actually kind of enjoyed the first Hitman movie, I do agree it is pretty bad though; but its almost like a guilty pleasure movie. So much more enjoyably than Agent 47 was
I like how you said Hitman Absolution was bad and then said it got bad reviews, and then proceeded to contradict yourself by showing a review aggregate that includes several 9/10 scores. Absolution was a fantastic game, it's just there are people who refused to accept anything different, and were obscenely vocal about it.
I just want a Hitman movie where 47 does all the shit he does in the games- tons of disguises and cheesy dialogue as people can't see through his disguises, people dying in Final Destination accidents, poison everywhere, remote bombs on vehicles- and yes, double Silverballer action scenes when discovered. It's a great concept for a stunt-heavy movie and a tense thriller.
At the start of watching this, I was laughing that you were complaining that the movie was too long at 96 minutes yet did a 20+ minute review of it but by the end, I have concluded that you put a very interesting dissection of the movie. I doff my hat to you sir!
god, you summed up my problems with this movie perfectly. I love the Hitman series. Absolutely adore it. But even I admit that they're not a good idea for a film. Both attempts at making a Hitman movie have been atrocious... but this is the worst one. There's a moment in the train fight scene where they, 47 and zach, fight over a barrier and land on the tracks and I swear the CGI looks worse than in a PS2 game. THIS MOVIE CAME OUT IN 2015! I knew this was going to be bad when they couldn't even get his look right. How hard it is to find an actor with a clean shaven head who looks good in a black suit with a red tie? ffs. great video!
getting casting right is not an easy job. finding someone who both looks the part AND acts the part is not as easy as it may seem. plus, casting agents are always on the lookout for the next Christopher Reeve, the next early career Mark Hamill. that one unknown dude that steps in and delivers a great audition while being the character envisioned in the script in-the-flesh. that being said, I think Rupert Friend was miscast big time.
What annoyed me to no end, is that they gave 47 his correct backstory, but didn't make it Ort-Meyer. Like, why the fuck give that Doctor a different name? Why make Diana suddenly evil AND asian? Why turn 47 into a terminator/John Wick clone? Why have her be an AGENT too - why not some bioweapon, ripping off resident evil or make her some important informant. Why call the evil agent John Smith and claim that he works for interpol as his false identity, when a Carlton Smith exists in the games as someone working for interpol who definitly ISN'T evil or an agent, just an incompetant guy? I mean, they shot it in Germany, why not actually center the plot around there too?! I am german and live here and to be honest, so many locations, even just in my hometown would make awesome Hitman-locations. Also, why not just make an adaptation of one of the levels of the released games? I mean, that butcher-party for example would have made for an easy to film and cheap to produce horror-segment. The abandoned amusement mile filled with gangsters? Kinda neat as an idea and also cheap to make. Delgados vinyard? Absolutely doable in germany, some of our regions are just jampacked with those and most rich folks would be okay to lend them to a film crew for a few weeks. You can do anything with Hitman, even just come up with a random plot and it will mame some sense. Just say some evil asshole has killed their sons gf out of jealousy, brutally drowning her, after having raped her. The son wants revenge and tells the ICA that he wants the culprit dead. 47 gets sent out after he ICA does its job finding out who did it and kills the dad but the son doesn't believe it and now hunts 47 down, failing miserably but still causing enough harm that the ICA made him 47s new target. I came up with this plot in 5 minutes and its already an interesting plot, similiar things have been done, but there is nothing wrong with taking an existing idea and making a good movie out of that! Just because most of modern fantasy bases itself upon Tolkiens works, doesn't mean they automaticly suck. Why didn't they just make 47 a stealthy bastard, that cleverly disguises himself and can hear footsteps, giving off the feeling of him actually seeing through walls? Imagine a movie, in which the protagonist defeats the bad guy, without ever fighting their guards! Maybe even go as far as having slow suspenseful scenes that clearly show that 47 might be a guy with some form of morals, but he still is a ruthless killer hunting and stalking his prey! Like that slaughterhouse orgy mission, in which you wont get penalized for killing the actual psychotic necrophile and not just the target. He might let all those other psychos live, but he has a sense of morals that makes him at least avenge the girls death even though it isn't in his contract given by her dad who falsely assumed the target was the actual killer. Or go the Hitman 2016 route (even though it wasn't out back then) and have him actually hunt down an organisation like the one in this movie, but have it be an actual threat or a contract given to him. Have him talk to Diana, let her be his guide, show off his skills, even against many guards, but dont make it stupid like in this movie. I mean, 47 would for sure kill guards if brought into such a situation, so why not let him sneak around, until shit hits the fan after which he then absolutely annihilates all enemies, getting paid less for doing so but still getting the job done as a ghost. The dead bodies? All accidents.
Because the character is more important later in the movie and he's completely different to Ort-Meyer. Would you rather have them name him Ort-Meyer just for the sake of it, even though he clearly isn't Ort-Meyer?
Imagine a hitman movie focused on the inner workings of 47s mind and proposing the question what does it mean to be human. While interspersed with the plot of hitman blood Money. Add a few good scenes of suspense and one or two action sequences. Then boom you have a film I would want to see
5:24 I've never seen the movie so I don't know how bad it really is but from what I can tell, that really isn't an appropriate excuse. It's just a running motif that a lot of composers use. Granted, instead of shoving it down your throat, most composers would rather create very different tracks and "sneak" the motif/chord progression in to get your brain subconsciously hooked to the notes.

Doesn't make this movie any good, but it wouldn't be far-fetched to see some kind of action to happen in the Hitman franchise.

My older brother and I always had this belief that a Hitman movie would be best as a comedy movie. This would be perfect, as everybody else would be extremely confused and the audience would be dying laughing at how stupid the methods used are, while Agent 47 himself is the serious character in the movie. Imagine an action scene that is crafted beautifully, but instead of explosions and gunfights, Agent 47 beats the shit out of every person in the room with a spaghetti can. It would be amazing.

@@WarriorPNG its really rare to see someone with a game logo as their pfp make a good comment
Remember in Hitman Bloodmoney when you had to find a guy during Mardegras, kill him, and then kill his own hired hitmen who were hired to kill you. The level is effectively about assassins being hired to kill each other and 47 coming out on top.
@Barry Collars Show - Gaming News Yeah but it was a trap... The Franchise really wanted 47
who could forget those wacky bird suits ?
Theres also tons of levels in that game where there are hidden targets that are rival assassins. Theres one where you go to a playboy mansion-esque place to kill a pornographer and one of the strippers is a contract killer who pulls a gun on you. Then there's the Hell/Heaven party mission where you have to stop an arms deal, there are also two hidden targets, a singer dressed as an angel and a waiter dressed as a demon who you have to also kill
@@DeadManSinging1
I remember the angel assassin being a fucking psycho who did cartwheels while trying to stab you.
Wait since when was there a level with other hitman
Would've been hilarious if the Agent in the elevator was the real 47 doing his job by killing fake47 and the target.
That would have saved the movie.
That actually would've been the only cool part about the movie if Agent 48 just shot 47 without warning and then killed the target while she's in a state of disbelief and horror.
I’m pretty sure he is agent 47 he looks a lot more like him and the main one didn’t talk to Diana for the whole film so... yeah call me an idiot if you won’t
fucking poetic justice right there
I'm assuming that is what was going on and Shaved Head was with The Franchise, not The Agency.

No that's me
"avoid collateral damage"

@@kennyyy4L think I've seen that one actually
Imagine this: A TV miniseries starring Agent 47, but he's not the leading character with the most screen time. Instead, it centers around charismatic fun characters which are his targets, and they all are connected to an overarching plot even though they have their own dedicated episodes (kinda like in the new Hitman game). And occassionally, scenes cut to Agent 47 preparing and arriving at destinations. While we follow his targets, we get glimses of him in the background, as he's taking on disguises, interacting with objects/people while tracking and following his targets (kinda like in the movie It Follows). If anything needs further clarification of what killing methods he's gonna use, everything turns into a split-screen (like in Blood Money) and you get to see what he's doing at the same time as you watch the target.
What I'm basically saying is, the Hitman franschise would work fantastically with the slasher format.
You pretty much nailed the concept^^
Oh also a little extra, the end credits could be a newspaper article of the killed victims (Like in Blood Money at the end of every mission)
great idea but what would be the point of watching if you know the victims are going to die, theres going to be no suspense
Well, that's the thing. Are the Hitman games suspenseful games? The only game I'd argue is was Absolution, because that took on a more conventional action/thriller movie plot, making Agent 47 vulnerable, and since that's what the movie business is interested in making, it's no wonder why the movies has been so bad since they're doing the complete opposite of what the franchise is known for; creative or/and badass assassinations without being noticed. The most faithful and fun cinematic experience you can make out of Hitman I truly believe is going the horror movie route, following the targets and making Agent 47 the killer lurking in the shadows, because that's certainly how I feel when I play the games. It would be a very niche (and sadistic) kind of entertainment though, that's for sure.
Yep you nailed it.
Although I wouldn't go the classical horror movie route. Most of the times, you don't even know he is coming. Horror movies have this clear and seemingly unbeatable antagonist, that the characters run away from. I don't think it would work in this case. Having him unseen, unnoticed yet present would be ideal.
Your concept would work nicely, for example a group of collegues who are involved in some shady business, to make it more morally ambiguous, having a party at a villa in Spain.
If you were to watch two plots happening at the same time at the same place, with split screens to show them intertwining. The main focus is on the targets, but you get few shots now and then of 47 setting his plan in motion, basically orchestrating their deaths in real time. The stakes are raised each time one of them dies because the others are beginning to suspect something is happening. They could even blame each other, because they wouldn't know that the Agent 47 is there.
There is a lot of potential. Too bad they turned it into a terminator clone. Even the previous version with Olyphant was better in that regard because the film was basically about him trying to salvage a failed mission/set up.
I would kill for such a miniseries. This is the only way I could see a Hitman movie or TV show work.
As a person who played Hitman: Absolution as my first hitman game, it's a fun game until you play the other Hitman games.

Keanu Reeves spine in The Matrix
Pop quizz: Tell me one strong point and one weakness of 47
He's amazing at deception, disguising, planning and executing a plan to kill a target without being seen
He's fricking fragile, and not meant for direct combat, I thought the games made that pretty clear
Meh, not sure, the game tells you that he can shoot a gun, and GOD he is good at it, but he is still a human clone, just enhanced, so if he takes a bullet he is going to feel the pain like anybody else and he can also die like anybody else.
Ps. The second game and the evidences in others tells us that he confronted his clones in open combat and he also confronted the asylum and SWAT teams when he was there to kill Odon Kovacs and Ort-Meyer afterwards, so for me... He is pretty good in combat. One weakness for him? Pretty hard to find one, maybe this, but again i dont think it probably fits in, but maybe his regrets, the games tells you about how agent 47 tends to regret, or try to regret his past, he has some conflict in his mind, yet it never really affects in, so... Really hard to find a weakness in this guy
How is he fragile, he's ripped and can beat anyone in a one on one fight

Hitman is the kind of thing that works great as a game and awful as a movie
It would be a really easy thing to make a good movie out of if it werent given to retarded people.
It could be a good movie but would needed people who k ow how the games play etc hitman is a stealth game but you hide in plain sight acting as someone you really aren't
The first movie weren't all bad but the second movie is just poorly done half the time 47 isn t even fully bald
Jack B it could be a good tv show, every episode could be a new target or targets, each episode could be 1 hour long so it would be more realistic as we see agent 47 subdue people and hide the body then take their clothes, it would be so epic
I honestly do think it would make interesting movie in aspects of what kind of person 47 is and what he does in he's spare time.
Although im leaning more against liking the idea of hitman being an actual series where each episode (hell even a season if just done very properly) is all about planning and preparing and then pulling off the actual hit. I dont think movie would be long enough to showcase what kind of life 47 is living.
Hit man could have made a really good movie if they’d actually focused on him killing people in creative ways while still having at least a somewhat mediocre story.
not like the games had incredible stories anyway except ifyou wanna be very optimistic, Absolution. But if the story is gonna be meh like the games they could have made something like the game, its like they grabbed the last 5 minutes of Blood Money (aka Requiem) and turned it into a shitty John Wick clone
Despite the fact that Timothy Olyphant says Hitman is the only movie he would've not done if he could have a career do-over, he was definitely the best Agent in the film series. He at least tried his best to convey the character with his personality, movement and stealth. This is like how the first Mortal Kombat was loveable but not that great, but its sequel is maybe the chinciest looking and just plain bad action movies ever released in theaters.
...series?
He talked a little too much to be 47, but overall I liked him in it
Timoty real made that movie great. They should have starred him in Agent 47. I still enjoy that movie, to this day.
It s made in bulgeria not russia
Although Tim's movie was filled with inaccuracies, he made a perfect Hitman personality wise. I very much still enjoy that movie, he was great, and at the very least lived up to some of my expectations.
The 2007 version woth Timothy Olyphant was actually pretty damn good. Not perfect. Was a little cheesy and tried too hard with making us care about Agent 47 wanting to stop being a coldblooded human robot because of some hooker he saved, but still. It focused more on espionage, disguises, stashed weapons, escape plans, etc. Instead of turning it into some damm fast and the furious movie like this one.
Also, the whole thing with the Hitman games is the wide variety of unique locations around the world and different situations for him to stealth through. If someone could grasp that, they might have the basis of a good Hitman movie on their hands.
That one was still shit. He never at all attempts to be stealthy, and just shoots his way through every situation. At one point, he gets into a fucking sword fight with a bunch of other assassins, which is the most out of character thing he could do. Its better than this movie I guess
@@DeadManSinging1 Wasn't 47 basically trapped in the bus with the 48's surrounding him?

Be glad it led you to smth better XD
No, I was introduced to the hitman franchise by a dude having very very bad runs of the game that were comedic honestly but still
like i watched the movie before playing the game but i did know that the game came first
This movie is like anti hitman. 47 was never the kind to go guns blazing apart from that mediocre absolution game. The movie should have focused on 47 travelling around the world just doing his job, finding ways to get around an impenetrable fortress, at the end of the movie just connect the few sublots together with a figure in the middle and bam you got a hitman movie.
@ Well codename 47 was more of a test run for hitman games. So some missions like the Columbia missions and the final mission were there because the stealth wasnt fully realized yet and you ask anyone what the worst missions in hitman are and they will point you towards codename 47s shooter missions. While on the other hand the best missions are the two pure stealth missions that being the chinese resturant and hotel assasination. The series didnt really make its presence known till hitman 2.
@ Actually the only place in hitman 2 the game where you have to murder someone other than the target is the final mission even the ninjas can be avoided if youre fast enough.

There are some scenes in the Transporter movies where he really looked like Agent 47 (like when sneaking into a clinic to get some video tapes).
I think the original was written with Statham in mind but unfortunately he`d already committed to other movies,otherwise yes he would have been perfect
No, Paul Walker was supposed to be agent 47 in this movie but sadly he passed away before filming.

Except for the fact that anton chigur does not look like 47 at all
he wasn't stealthy though. inhuman and creepy as fuck? definitely. but 47 is not really a mass murderer kind of guy. he just gets the job done no questions asked, even if he has to wear a chicken costume to stay unnoticed. he's cold but he does have a human side. his relationship with Father Vittorio and even his sense of humour are evidence that he isn't a total robot as some assume for some reason.

I actually kind of enjoyed the first Hitman movie, I do agree it is pretty bad though; but its almost like a guilty pleasure movie. So much more enjoyably than Agent 47 was
I like how you said Hitman Absolution was bad and then said it got bad reviews, and then proceeded to contradict yourself by showing a review aggregate that includes several 9/10 scores. Absolution was a fantastic game, it's just there are people who refused to accept anything different, and were obscenely vocal about it.
Just isn't good as a Hitman title
I felt so bad taking my date to see this
I actually forgot this movie existed hahaha
Fireassassin16 I didn’t even know it existed
I just want a Hitman movie where 47 does all the shit he does in the games- tons of disguises and cheesy dialogue as people can't see through his disguises, people dying in Final Destination accidents, poison everywhere, remote bombs on vehicles- and yes, double Silverballer action scenes when discovered. It's a great concept for a stunt-heavy movie and a tense thriller.
Your video was amazing. Thanks for remaining genuine and fun!!!!
They never did ave maria and it makes me wanna do the depression dance
i has the sad and shall commit toaster bath
Hitman could actually be a great tv show if done well.

because hes Anthony fantano

If you put the letter S in front of "Hitman", you have my exact opinion of this movie.
Oh my god.. Cvit that scene at 17:43 made me laughed so hard ahahhaa
"i broke my back, my back is broken"
"SPINAL!"
I just like to pretend it’s not a hitman movie
Its not, its only a rip-off
@@EduardoFerreira-gi7wo The one from 2007 is The only one. Ok?
@@RazvanHardcore that one was ok, just ok
@@EduardoFerreira-gi7wo i liked The scene with katana fight
@@RazvanHardcore there was some good scenes, the movie was ok, but i think they made some huge mistakes
12:50 that is not a silencer it’s supposed to help him shoot from longer dinstances
It's just sad, really. The Hitman series has the potential to inspire a great movie, but instead they go with mediocrity every time.
4:25 so that’s why I have bill wurtz in the recommended bar
14:10 bro did a better agent 47 voice impression than the agent 47 actors
21:07 The Action Unit Directors are the very directors of "John Wick"!!!!! Your comparision with it earlier makes complete sense now.
0:11 : *exists*

At the start of watching this, I was laughing that you were complaining that the movie was too long at 96 minutes yet did a 20+ minute review of it but by the end, I have concluded that you put a very interesting dissection of the movie. I doff my hat to you sir!
At the very end of the movie, just before the credits, a severely more accurate Agent 47 gets shot by the movie's 47.
god, you summed up my problems with this movie perfectly.
I love the Hitman series. Absolutely adore it. But even I admit that they're not a good idea for a film. Both attempts at making a Hitman movie have been atrocious... but this is the worst one.
There's a moment in the train fight scene where they, 47 and zach, fight over a barrier and land on the tracks and I swear the CGI looks worse than in a PS2 game. THIS MOVIE CAME OUT IN 2015!
I knew this was going to be bad when they couldn't even get his look right. How hard it is to find an actor with a clean shaven head who looks good in a black suit with a red tie? ffs.
great video!
A good hitman movie could be amazing.
getting casting right is not an easy job. finding someone who both looks the part AND acts the part is not as easy as it may seem. plus, casting agents are always on the lookout for the next Christopher Reeve, the next early career Mark Hamill. that one unknown dude that steps in and delivers a great audition while being the character envisioned in the script in-the-flesh.
that being said, I think Rupert Friend was miscast big time.
What annoyed me to no end, is that they gave 47 his correct backstory, but didn't make it Ort-Meyer. Like, why the fuck give that Doctor a different name? Why make Diana suddenly evil AND asian? Why turn 47 into a terminator/John Wick clone? Why have her be an AGENT too - why not some bioweapon, ripping off resident evil or make her some important informant. Why call the evil agent John Smith and claim that he works for interpol as his false identity, when a Carlton Smith exists in the games as someone working for interpol who definitly ISN'T evil or an agent, just an incompetant guy?
I mean, they shot it in Germany, why not actually center the plot around there too?! I am german and live here and to be honest, so many locations, even just in my hometown would make awesome Hitman-locations. Also, why not just make an adaptation of one of the levels of the released games? I mean, that butcher-party for example would have made for an easy to film and cheap to produce horror-segment. The abandoned amusement mile filled with gangsters? Kinda neat as an idea and also cheap to make. Delgados vinyard? Absolutely doable in germany, some of our regions are just jampacked with those and most rich folks would be okay to lend them to a film crew for a few weeks.
You can do anything with Hitman, even just come up with a random plot and it will mame some sense. Just say some evil asshole has killed their sons gf out of jealousy, brutally drowning her, after having raped her. The son wants revenge and tells the ICA that he wants the culprit dead. 47 gets sent out after he ICA does its job finding out who did it and kills the dad but the son doesn't believe it and now hunts 47 down, failing miserably but still causing enough harm that the ICA made him 47s new target. I came up with this plot in 5 minutes and its already an interesting plot, similiar things have been done, but there is nothing wrong with taking an existing idea and making a good movie out of that! Just because most of modern fantasy bases itself upon Tolkiens works, doesn't mean they automaticly suck.
Why didn't they just make 47 a stealthy bastard, that cleverly disguises himself and can hear footsteps, giving off the feeling of him actually seeing through walls? Imagine a movie, in which the protagonist defeats the bad guy, without ever fighting their guards! Maybe even go as far as having slow suspenseful scenes that clearly show that 47 might be a guy with some form of morals, but he still is a ruthless killer hunting and stalking his prey! Like that slaughterhouse orgy mission, in which you wont get penalized for killing the actual psychotic necrophile and not just the target. He might let all those other psychos live, but he has a sense of morals that makes him at least avenge the girls death even though it isn't in his contract given by her dad who falsely assumed the target was the actual killer.
Or go the Hitman 2016 route (even though it wasn't out back then) and have him actually hunt down an organisation like the one in this movie, but have it be an actual threat or a contract given to him. Have him talk to Diana, let her be his guide, show off his skills, even against many guards, but dont make it stupid like in this movie. I mean, 47 would for sure kill guards if brought into such a situation, so why not let him sneak around, until shit hits the fan after which he then absolutely annihilates all enemies, getting paid less for doing so but still getting the job done as a ghost. The dead bodies? All accidents.
Because the character is more important later in the movie and he's completely different to Ort-Meyer. Would you rather have them name him Ort-Meyer just for the sake of it, even though he clearly isn't Ort-Meyer?
Imagine a hitman movie focused on the inner workings of 47s mind and proposing the question what does it mean to be human. While interspersed with the plot of hitman blood Money. Add a few good scenes of suspense and one or two action sequences. Then boom you have a film I would want to see
Todd Howard!?!? Oh fuck no lol
This was so much better than the movie.

Actually a Terminator/Predator style Hitman movie could work but at the end, Agent 47 gets the kill because he is Agent 47
2:01 “47’s head is very cylindrical”
I’m sorry, what? That means his head is shaped like a fuckin can... Spherical maybe? lol
Man also showed bad reviews for the game and they were literally all 8/10s

"Hitman Absolution wasn't that good"
*show a list of great scores of the same game*
Anyway, this video was fun haha. Good job dude
Actually the game is great lol
I love Absolution, even if the structure is different to the usual; I still had a lot of fun with it.
"no lets not sneak. lets kill them" bro you get penalty points for killing non targets in every hitman game?!
5:24 I've never seen the movie so I don't know how bad it really is but from what I can tell, that really isn't an appropriate excuse. It's just a running motif that a lot of composers use. Granted, instead of shoving it down your throat, most composers would rather create very different tracks and "sneak" the motif/chord progression in to get your brain subconsciously hooked to the notes.
