Great poster...


Hi, just checked out the poster for "Contract Killer" & it looks great. I also saw the link showing there will be a premire DVD release in 2008.

well im watching it now (about half way through the film) and overall it's pretty 'blah' nothing i would even consider recommending to anyone.

as it's not horrible and the directing etc seems 'good enough' but i think the actors/actresses are just overall 'blah' which ultimately makes the film below average for me, but it's nothing horrible though.

i give it a 4/10 (no higher than a 5/10 for SURE!), as it aint really boring or anything (but on the verge of it lol) but it dont really keep you all that interested either... so overall im sorta forcing myself to finish the film so in that sense you could say it's sorta boring. lol

also, i aint one of those people who need non stop action to be entertained either... it's just after seeing ALOT of films (several hundreds, probably closer to 1000) , stuff like 'Contract Killers' is rather bland at best... and if your comparing to other 'hitman themed' films i have seen it's easily the worst by a LARGE margin.

so in other words dont let the cool looking poster fool you as the poster is much cooler than the actual film is.

bottom line ... 'Contract Killers' (2008) gets the thumbs down from me for sure.... cause there's so many other great films out there i would not even waste your time on this.

p.s. i have a high interest in the 'hitman themed' genre if done right to (i.e. Leon (1994) 10/10 one of my favorite films of all time)

EDIT: after seeing the entire film... the film got a little better in 2nd half of it (during some of the action the editing etc got a little bad at times) but overall it's still definitely no higher than a 5/10 overall... probably more like a 4.5/10 cause the first half was rather 'blah'... all-in-all, it's a 4/10 is my final rating.
