  • ROFL, the woman's accent and annunciation of "Olyphant" BAHAHAH.

  • both are great actors so why should it matter?

  • That's not Bateson.

  • i kinda hope they bring timothy back for part 2 or get vin diesel to play the role...

  • @straitcowboy72 Oh shut up.. I just pucked inside my mouth

  • I feel like the actual actor that played 47 in the game could play him in the movies. His voice is awesome for the role (duh) but his face is pretty close to the game character and he probably knows how to play 47 too since he has been doing the dialogue for 4 games.

  • Jason statham sadly over-rated

  • good movie that i want to see again but as a true fan of 'hitman' (the game..silent assassin in every mission on pro..) I feel the guy who played 47 ddn't do 47 justice

  • I wish there will be a second Movie, but this time starring Jason Statham.

    As for the main character make him a freaking stealth killing machine, that's what the game is all about !

  • The girl bedtime scene sucked, not really my image of 47s way to go, but whatever. At least they made a Hitman movie. I could live with a second movie too. Or Splinter Cell movie too - that one is BTW overdue by years now and still nothing.

  • The movie was actually good for a start to the hitman series. Timothy Olyphant is the right person for the role of # 47 (many people say that jason statham should have been agent 47, but i don't think so). Plus i hope the second movie has more of Hitman's individual missions or assassinations before the movie drifts to the storyline. Also i hope the actions be very realistic like the ones in The Bourne movies.

  • love it and fighting scenes.

  • the moment hitman gets framed and he jumps to the window with the rope to the room underneath him, look at what the kids are playing ;)

  • Hes to jong, hitman is wise old men, years of training. The old wise hitman is creapy and that's cool about it.

  • I dont think he FULLY understood the role/emotion of hitman in this movie from the game. he should have played it lmao

  • @Melbourne619 /watch?v=XiVRlNKEgew

  • A horrible movie, horrible cast, totally incorrect storyline. Just another soulless Hollywood action movie.. utter garbage! Anybody who really appreciates the story behind the real Hitman franchise, coupled with the creative genius of Jesper Kyd, should understand why this movie is an empty, vacuous detachment from everything the Hitman series was meant to be.

  • @dozzpollen Your comment is exactly what I've been saying all the time not only about Hitman movie, but ALL the movies which were "based" on video games - they have no clarity, no emotion just another hollywood garbage. I can't even express my fury on how I hate when they just take something, we gamers know, love and respect, and they just take it and make this kind of sh*t. And I'm very surprised that owners of the trademark allowing this to happen, selling licenses left and right.

  • worst actor for the Hitman role! that was Jasons role!!!

    this guy is a shaved pussy nigga! what a shame.

  • this guy was great for the role of agent 47 he acted perfectly

  • he is not a clone in the movie he's a guy just it

  • 2 digit tattoo barcode, LOL, dumb bitch...

  • This movie was not good but they atleast did not have Mark Wahlberg in it...

  • f*** to all what have u said, timothy olyphant are suitable for agent 47 role! XD

  • I actually liked the movie, i wish they made a second one ;)

  • @FourFeathers94 They will :)  Whit Vin Diesel "Hitman Funeral"

  • i thought the film was great...why do you people only want to see bad reviews..with people swearing? do you like bad language and stupid comments? the film is good the two main characters do their parts well..i realise you would prefer someone swearing,and talking rubbish..but its a good film love ed

  • @58142430 i loooooooved it .

  • this movie was awesome - can't belive everyone didn't like irt

    Olga was way more sexy in this than in Quantum of solace

    The twists and escapes were awesome

    Dougray Scot was awesome aswell

    loved the fact that Vin diesel was involved in the production

  • i liked this movie it was wise of them to make a new story but still reference the games history (the cloning and etc) unlike max payne which clusterfucked the story and the games universe

  • Of course Timothy did well in there. But it seems the storey was framed in a damn hurry.... Not much interesting as gameplay...

  • Timothy played the part well. His job was to be a Elite Assasin and he did well. He showed no emotion which gave you this feeling of mystery. i think he did a good job.

  • I think that the movie is OK. Olga is so beautiful...but the best thing in this movie is Timothy

  • Best thing in this shitty movie was, that kurylenko was in it... Seriously, this movie has nothing to do with the game. Why can´t directors actually PLAY these games or make some serious research before they do a "movie about a game".

  • @Quappsemoppel i take it i shouldnt get it then. was looking at it on ebay but the trailers ive seen and a few comments have put me off. is it bad?

  • @locorojo25 one part i hated is when pulled 2 blades out of his jacket for an epic sword fight, that's the only thing i hated. Its a pretty cool movie

  • @locorojo25

    I would recommend you to rent this movie. If you never played the games, don´t have great expectations and just want to see a mediocre action movie, you will like this movie :)

  • timothy made the best hitman

  • *Where were you guys at high school when i really needed you* ?? wtf ?! lmao

  • Best movie made in Bulgaria!

    

  • open your mouth when you talk dude!

  • I loved the film

  • Even David Bateson said Olyphant was a bad Hitman.

  • @SoFarSoGoodSoWhat14 Who's that? Your neighbour?

  • @Curseco No, the Hitman voice actor.

  • افضل فلم ولعبة ps2 شفتها

  • i loved the movie i just hope they dont use someone else for the second one

    because that would really suck..

  • 47 never sleeps with a woman this is against his rules, he doesnt bond and has no emotion so thumbs down for the film!!!

  • @shughes375 he can sleep with a woman, he just doesnt need to have sex with her

  • @bloodcorer wtf? i don't get you or this film!!

  • I wanna see Ray Liota bold, acting the character of 47!!!! Only the thought gives me chills! :)

  • The film was nonses and didnt stand on the real hitman story. Before you filmed it you should have done a better reasearch on Hitmans character. And Timothy Olyphant doesn't even look like the character from the game. The character in the game is blue eyed.

  • @lightmanfilms

    I wouldn't worry about small details such as eye color, but you should worry about small details such as spelling. It's so easy to check your spelling when posting on sites such as this. When you see a word underlined in red, just right click on the word and it will give you some options. You would have to come a little closer than you did with "nonses", but just sound it out... nonsense. You should be able to get it with just a little effort. Just try to give a damn.

  • @dixiestine Our subject is the film here and not my spelling. But it seems you don't accept other people opinions

    and there are a lot of smart asses like in youtube.I judge as a simple audience not because i am into film making but mostly because i played the game since day one which is from were the movie originates and the fail it's obvious. Now... I f you like Timothy Olyphant as an actor, fair enough. He might be good but not to good enough for the specific movie.

  • @dixiestine And of course besides that take a look at this. That's an actor i would prefer or enjoyed more than Timothy Olyphant. youtube.com/watch?v=GDXFddCAS7­o

  • if the link doesn't work just simply search for "The real 47" with David Bateson.

  • @lightmanfilms You think eye color is so important? I think that is just silly. Didn't you know that there is this thing called contact lens. If eye color would have been so damn important Olyphant could have just used colored lenses.

  • It was ass that they fucked up the basics. What is "brotherhood" they are supposed to be CLONES! Only that fact would have made huge difference in the movie. 47 isnt supposed to be human other than in physical way. Cloning aspect in Hitman games has always been the core of the story so why did they changed it? I JUST CANT GET IT!

  • @TuomioK Clones are human! A clone is nothing more than an identical twin of the person cloned. Do some research before making an "ass" of yourself.

  • @dixiestine Well that is what I said! Of course clones are human. You can't deny that clone is not different than "normal" person. What makes us human? Ask that yourself. I mean that intercourse with other people makes us human. If person is raised by monkeys for example he/she is human in physical way but mentally? I dont think so. Hitman is supposed to be this perfect killing machine built for killing and nothing else. That is why he should be a clone like in the games. Well this is pretty far

  • The problem with Olyphant isn't his acting, it's his baby-face. Had they hired David Bateson (the guy that voiced Agent 47) the movie might not have been a complete flop, but it's pretty clear that whoever wrote the script didn't spend enough time researching the character or the universe the games are set in, resulting in a lackluster action movie with no depth or style.

  • I hate the fangroups who constantly cry out for a game to be made into a movie - when every single time it ends up as rubbish

    This movie was no exception

  • it is not a 2 digit barcode -.- the last two digits are 47

  • This film was rubbish, he did not even need to use the bathroom!

  • @penisenises Are you fucking kidding me? Why would anyone want to watch him use the bathroom?? And how do you know that before he got into that shower that he didn't use the toilet before? or after taking the shower:? Or when we're watching other characters??

  • Comment removed

  • max payne was totally flop movie but according to me Hitman movie is really hit then max payne...!!

  • when gonna hitman 2 comes up

    thumps up if you want hitman2

  • hitman is my favorite movie. my favorite number is 47 partially from hitman.

  • Epic film!!!

  • Does anyone know the name of the classical music being played in the beginning of the movie? I have heard that song in the movie Salt also during the VP's funeral and the Russian Presidents assault. Its a chilling classical tune

    Also as a woman agent 47 didnt have romance with the russian gal , he in fact acted ackward over her but did give her a break because of the feeling he got from having a similar soul. He related to that but did leave an openness to it.

  • @34sunbunpart2 It's Ave Maria...there are several versions of it. My favorite is the instrumental version of Schubert's arrangement. There is an Ave Maria selection on the Hitman soundtrack also.

  • @34sunbunpart2 It's Ave Maria...there are several versions of it. My favorite is the instrumental version of Schubert's arrangement. There is an Ave Maria selection on the Hitman soundtrack also.

  • Hey its Hitman lol

  • bad narrator.....voice too sharp!!!

  • Timothy is an excellent actor. He always plays bad ass roles.

  • he's so hot<3

    I wish you weren't married Timothy xD

  • @DirtySmile47 totally he's so hot, I don't care for video game films much but I didn't realise this one had Timothy Olyphant in it, I have to watch this now, yum!

  • They needed the voice actors to play in the film. The guy that voices 47 in the english game looks and sounds like him, (search David Bateson) not that cabbage patch kid Olymphant. Diana should be in it too. The next film should have better villains and more sophistictated hits, a better plot, and no romance. He cares only for his songbird afterall. :) 

  • @999shyguy Cool story bro, but Timothy Olyphant is a bad ass... Just watch Deadwood, which is easily one of the best written TV shows to ever exist, and it was on HBO, so they could say and do whatever they wanted.. And Justified is bad ass too, He is a great actor, and making movies about this character is pretty stupid when he is essentially a robot and has no emotion, The movie wasn't great, but he did a good job with the material he was given. He is a great actor so don't be hating on him

  • @toThe9thPower I wasn't insulting him, I just didn't like the movie.

  • One major no go is that he had romatic contact with the woman . 47 can´t love . He is a killing machine .

  • thumbs up if you you thinking too. waiting for movie and hitman reborn  SUCKS

  • it's was a really decent movie in fact, that's good

  • @4illegalalien hence the phrase "as bad"

  • his voice need improved

  • Both movie and actors were great . The way he walks,shoots talks everything.. looked like i was playing the video game it self

  • A mi me gusto mucho la pelicula!!!! ojala agan una segunda!!!

  • I was surprisingly impressed with this movie. I didn't know what to expect other then I liked what I saw of Timothy Olyphant when he played Bullock in Deadwood. So I gave it a try and loved it. He is fantastic! thank you.

  • I think this guy actually played the character very well. I like jason stathom alot, But i think its unfair that people keep knocking this guy saying other actors could have done it better. Its not the best film,but its definately not the worst, I enjoyed it anyway :)

  • People bitch too much. The movie was good and Olyphant portrayed 47 decently. It would be a bit difficult to make a movie with a lead character that has basically NO personality, as the one in the game. If you hated the movie than don't bother watching the second when it comes out.

  • @webmurdersquad WHAT!?!?!?WHGEN1?1?!!?

  • @webmurdersquad

    and the ingame 47 has a personality. He has feelings and remorse for his killer life. He was a priests gardener in Hitman 2

  • @webmurdersquad no it wasnt horrible. but i really wish it wasnt connected. hitman just shouldnt have been an action movie.

  • @webmurdersquad but one thing is right: they should contract jason statham for the movie. he looks more like mr. 47

  • @webmurdersquad The guy that voices 47 is an actor, and he looks like him too.

  • @webmurdersquad You obviously don't know the Hitman series very well if you thought the film was good. Straight off the bat they have got the whole background story for the film totally WRONG.

  • @MrWhiteBoi4Lyf it was a different story

  • @webmurdersquad There is going to be a second!?!!?? WHEN!??!?!? I CAN'T WAIT!

  • @webmurdersquad soooooo agreed wid u.

  • @webmurdersquad amen to that

  • @webmurdersquad I dont usually troll,but fuck you,you probably didnt even play the game dickhead

  • WHEN ARE THEY GOING to make the other movies like the games ffs???

  • @Mtvbella srsly.

  • the original voice actor from the hitman games would have been a better choice

  • @vapsyvox Not even that the guy who dubbed the voice of Agent 47 was only the guy who the skin was based on, look the guy up

  • yea HITMAN47 rocks but TIMOTHY OLYPHANT sucks

  • I completed the latest hitman blood money... And Timothy has done a great job acting as agent 47 you bull shits how do you insult such a fine actor and movie.. Hitman rocks.. Agent 47 rocks and so does timothy.. Looking forward for a series of this movie..

  • @cowmonsoonred Hitman 5 is in development ( the game )

  • szmaty 47!!!!!!

  • Olyphant is not 47 come on!!

  • w olyphanttttttttttttttttttttt:d

  • At least this wasn't as bad as the Max Payne film.

  • the bar code and bald head is so damn obvious how in the world can you be an assassin?

  • Ha ha

    Taking alot of room

  • man, they have to make the movie exactly how the game it is

    no change , no shits , no way

    thats way they dont know why the movie did't make any audience.

    they need to make a movie like james bond or jason bourne to hitman

    cuz hitman have great skills , they have to show this to the public

    like a robot, a machine full of skills

    i dont know why the directors do that type of shit.

    even if the movie succeed ,the players will thing that sucks

  • @lordcapucino they made him have fellings for that russian girl the real agent 47 would of blew her brains all over the wall with the silver ballers and slowly walked away like nothing happend

  • @ace9846 its hollywood, they had to bring love into the mix, its just a shame in my opinion that they centered the whole movie around it....................

  • @ace9846 dude this guy is just another wannabe james bond, I mean c'mon hitman will own the shit out of anyone he likes.

  • @H4lfLif34ddict3d Forget what I said, I got the movie, its okay not that good.

  • the movie was horrible cuz it had nothing to do with the game series!

    The movie's 47 is more Rambo-like!

    Try that in game and you will last less than 10 seconds...

  • Great actor! Horrible movie!

  • 47 looked almost 40 he looks 20 to 30 47 has no emotions he does, you can tell if he's pleased, angry, cocky... 47's voice sounds deep but apathetic he sounds average, not mature enough 47 is invisible, knows how to use disguises (changing outfits) he is invincible, maniac kills a group of people with dual submachineguns (changed clothing only once) 47 says no more than necessary, every word counts he's easier to predict with all the talking face it people, olyphant is not a good 47 actor.
  • @livingdeadshawn agreed

  • @ still, love is a distraction to being a true assassin. Start caring too much, and you might just jepradize the mission

  • tim was an amazin amazing actor u did a good job :)

  • WTF IS THIS??!! HAVE ANYONE OF THESE D1CKHEADS PLAYED THE GAME? WHAT A DISGRACE THAT FILM IS.

  • jason statham good action actor but shity actor when it comes to acting compared to timothy olyphant who can do both!

  • dear io interactive please make hitman 5 and hitman 2 movie

  • i dont mean to copy the comments below me (i had already thought of it) but jason stathom would have been an AWESOME hitman.. apart from his english voice.

  • I fully agree with cristiancr791 and bigredjew! This movie should have been a lot darker and deeper. Instead, they made a silly action flick for retarded kids, wich doesn't capture the spirit of the game at all. Such a wasted potential, it's painful to even talk about it.

    As for the choice of lead actor - of course David Bateson. He has been playing the Hitman character from day 1. He is the voice of

    Hitman, he is the face of Hitman, he is the soul of Hitman: HE IS THE FUCKING HITMAN!!!

  • BOOO!!!! Should've been fucking David Bateson. He's the one who did Agent 47's voice in the game series which is what this P.O.S. movie was derived from. Bateson also provided facial model. Stupid not to use him.

  • @bigredjew jason staham the best for 47

  • @bisys2 You know buddy? YOU KNOW FUCKING WHAT?!.... I agree...Statham would've done a good job as well...:)

  • @bigredjew i totally agree

  • @bigredjew He looks old, but I think that hollywood could've made him look smoother, and younger. If they would be able to do that efficiently then Yes, he should have been him. You can tell he provided the face for the character, and that oh so familiar voice.

  • omg when i watched the movie i didnt realize that its the same guy that played a rolle in the girl next door :P

  • Prefer the games. Hitman isn't supposed to love anyone, or anything...

  • @Cybishock There's a girl that he likes in the games too. It's only a minor plot point, and he keeps it to himself, but it's there.

  • i think this movie needed to be more decrepit, darker less glamour.

    cuz thats how the game is, it almost scares you to play it. I love the game but the movie needed more

  • ki podreee

    

  • I personally enjoy both the games, and this movie. I guess because I don't 'compare' the two, I simply respect the film for what *it* is, and the games for what *they* are.

  • jason statham for hitman 2.

  • Timothy Olyphant is a great actor but staring as Agent 47 doesnt suit him, i mean yes he has the lonesome and dark walk but hey, hes too young. Agent 47 is abit more grim and older, i say David Bateson, hes got the talk and the personality. Few dark words and so on. See David in a suit and a red tie with the dark grim look. David will be the perfect gods assassin. No offence to Timothy fans. Hes just alittle young in feature to be Agent 47. Most say Jason Stathom. Hes good in a suit, thats all.

  • Jason Statham should had got the role

  • @darroni123

    If you want to see Jason Statham try to play 47 just watch "The Mechanic" or "The Expendables" or hell... ANY other Jason Statham movie. Thats the only role he ever plays; a rip off of 47.

    He would have made a horrible 47 because 47 is a man of few words, and Jason Statham doesn't shut up... ever.

  • @JamesBondOO7agent The movie Hitman 2 movie is gona come out in 2012 ??

  • wait theyre making a hitman 2??????

  • i would like this actor with the same voice to the game, that could be awesome.

    PS:srry for my bad english :P.

  • he would make a good lex luther in superman reboot

  • This man is sexy.  Very, very sexy.

  • I wish Vin Diesel was Hitman :)

  • is hitan 2 ...coming????ohh plzz tell me>>when>>its coming>???

  • this movie was great, fuck all the haters.

  • Fuck the movie was SHIT !

  • i liked the movie, as it was intersting, filled with action and some good acting, but as a big fan of the Hitman franchise ( Hitman Bloodmoney was the first game i played when i got my 1st xbox) it kinda tracks away from 47s persona. Not much stealth, alot of mindless action, and more of a secret agent than a contract killer. Still it was great and i think its one of those movies you don't forget.

  • Not quite fit to be Agent 47 in my opinion.

  • He is so hot. Bang me Tim. BANG ME!

  • @Bain1998 i hope your a chick.....:o

  • @bricksjr12 Um no. I am not a chick. SUPRISE!!! Gay people exist! *rolls eyes*

  • @Bain1998 i didint mean it that way i would think thats only a face girls would like.....

  • @bricksjr12 Nah. A good looking guy is a good looking guy.

  • @Bain1998 aaah! your right im stright and i think hes kinda....good looking to

  • AHHHHH I LOVE HIM ILL MASTERBATE ON TOP OF HIS HEAD

  • You people forget that the film was a complete critical and financial failure. Not to mention that both the story and the acting sucked so fuckin bad. It's nothing like the game. He's just a bald james bond wannabe here.

  • @terminator847 haterrr that movie kickedd ass

  • Comment removed

  • @ASDFG8732 I think Timothy Olyphant is going to return as agent 47. Thats what I've read anyway :)

  • @Saraa149 Thank you for replaying on hitman 2nd movie

  • hitman is 1 of the best movies ever made.

  • VIN DIESEL would have been much better for this role, every time I think of real life hitman in VIN DIESEL.

    also it could have been made much better especialy when it comes to the the strory
