Interview with a Hitman

All i can say imagine this first time director with a big Hollywood budget then you will see the true beauty of this film. I felt at times that i could feel David finchers atmospheric cinematography riding through this film and with the menacing soundtrack i think this film deserves much more of a user review score for a first time director.

The story is a child grows into a hit-man finds love thats it but inbetween there is so much more and i thought the ending was pleasing.

This isn't a popcorn flick and though the fight scenes and action sequences are good it is a slow paced melodrama but the script is good which in my opinion makes the film worth watching

I don't agree with the complainers about this film. Luke Goss is a stone cold killer from early age to adulthood. He played his part really well. I didn't pay all that much attention to the other characters enough to critique them much. The music tracks were quite good and someone already mentioned almost haunting. Sure there are some plot holes and some bad acting from some lesser characters in the movie. But that's actually quite normal for action flicks of any budget. Overall I enjoyed the film and the action scenes were pretty good for it's budget. The story is true to the movie's description. I gave this a 9 out 10 because I really can't complain about much. For the budget of the film it beat out dozens of action flicks I've seen in the last 12 months that had much higher budgets. However, I preferred Luke's bad-ass character in Blood In Blood Out more.

OK if you want a mega budget action film, big names, big affects....well then this is not for you. Its always hard to rate a low budget film as most have a bigger version out there (not always better mind) its hard to see past the poor locals or affects, long story short they look cheap. So we have Hit-man who relives his life, flash backs and the like, all that he has done told through his eyes. Acting wise Luke Goss is good, cold and cool, and the other cast.....well a few are good and a few bad (it tends to be accents that let actors down) The action is good at times, again the low budget keeps it to mainly gun/hand fights, both of which are not bad, its not flashy but it feels a little bit more real to life. The story is what it is, been there seen that, but it moves along well. The look of the film is lower budget.....but at times it looks very well shot. One thing that stood out for me was the soundtrack, simple and at times haunting, much better than most films of this type. I know I keep saying budget budget budget, but its what you have to think of when you look at these films, for me this is a good solid film for the budget, it makes me wonder just what Perry Bhandal(director, first film) could do if he was to get a bigger....OK last time BUDGET. I hope some studio has faith in Perry Bhandal and gives him more room to create.

The movie delivered in parts and mainly in the parts that matter. Generally the acting across the film showed some good performances and there were enough of these to hold the film together. For me it distances itself from other films in the 'hitman' space by not trying to masquerade as something it not. As with many low budget films it could be enhanced with investment time and resources, but we truly need these types of films within the industry. In fact, the challenge of not having the capital forces those involved to focus on the basics. This film delivers with a refreshing attempt to portray its characters and deal with a fast moving complex plot. The director has shown potential for delivering raw and hard hitting material. I'd like to say the film rocks, without making references to those who may have had alternative careers in the past. Seriously, a good film well made, with everything in place to make this an enjoyable watch.

This film is really good. I was not expecting something like this. Reminds me of Heat and Drive a little bit - the way it looks and the acting is really really good.

Luke goss is very suited to play a hit-man, he plays it realistic in a way i was not expecting.

The little boy that plays him as a boy is very good as well. he even looks like a young Luke goss.

tThe french woman is beautiful - i would have liked to see more of her.

The story is good, different, not like other films and intelligent.

I saw that it is number 18 on moviemeter!!! That is amazing acheievment. It is sitting next to big Hollywood films. Shows that you cannot stop a really good film like this one.
