The Virtuoso

A movie without any outstanding incident and pretty predictable story. The narrative voice over was added to compensate lack of excitement.

REVIEW - THE VIRTUOSO

Now I always say that films are like music, we all have different tastes and none can be a better example of this than the Virtuoso.

With a current rating of 4 out of 10 on IMDB AND as its new out I thought I'd give it a look see.

Actually I really enjoyed the film from start to finish, just proving what I've said above.

During the story you follow a hit man through a number of jobs, until he is given one in a sleepy town where no one is as they seem.

Very good writing, acting excellent and just simply a very enjoyable film, as the hit man tries to establish who his next target is.

I guessed very early in the film but this did not detract from the film as a whole.

If you want a story, great acting then this is one to try.

Rating 8 out of 10.

This was a really enjoyable film. It sets a deliberate pace and often feels delightfully moody.

No car chases or exotic fights, just a story and some good acting.

Its not for everyone but if you want a change of pace then this is a great option :)

Movie started well, very well actually, enough to keep me interested until the end, but the constant holes on the script and incoherent mistakes for a "Virtuoso" kinda ruined it.

Anson Mount plays the lead role wonderfuly and I keep wondering why this guy is not chosen for more movies (even for the "The Witcher" series he would be on par with "Mr. Superman" on the character).

With such good actors in, It was a surprise to not see Anthony Hopkins playing a more meaningful role on the story.

It was the great beginning and middle that kept me to the end. It was the good acting and noir looks that kept me interested and trying to ignore the obvious mistakes the main character was doing.

All in all, could be much better, but compared to the movie trash that is coming out lately, this is almost a masterpiece - and could have been if more character build-up was in and more plot-holes were out.

The hitman is told where and when to find his victim, but not who. No name, no picture or description, just an obscure clue. When he arrives at his destination, there are multiple possibilities for him to consider. If you can get past that premise, it is still a mediocre and predictable bore.
