Insieme per uccidere

Michael Dudikoff stars as Quinn Simmons, an assassin who is starting to hate his job and is recruited to teach a new guy Jason Wells (Brennon Elliot) the tricks of the trade however Wells is an undercover FBI agent, what Wells doesn't know is that his company is setting him up as a patsy and when all hell breaks loose, Well's only friend seems to be the same assassin who trained him in this unbelievably intense thriller which has lots of suspense and finally a worthy role suitable of Dudikoff's talents. This is easily one of Dudikoff's best roles in his entire career and this time he's backed up by a good story and good actors. The Silencer is a surprise due to it's story's texture and because that everything that happens is plausible. Of all the Dudikoff movies out there, this is the one that deserves the most credit.

4/5 Matt Bronson

I have seen much worse. This movie is a typical 'B' movie, but it does have some good plot twists near the end. Michael Dudikoff does his usual brooding, action packed, 'do the right thing' hero. The supporting cast does a good job. Worth watching!

This is probably Michael Dudikoff's best-written movie. The story has some good twists and turns, and is at times a bit hard to follow, forcing you to pay close attention. Dudikoff is the title character, a hitman who does the dirty work for a mysterious organization. A young FBI agent, Brennan Elliott, fakes his death in order to infiltrate the group and identify the guy calling the shots, and ultimately makes some startling discoveries about the circumstances surrounding his father's death. Dudikoff's character really isn't that bad, and we learn that he does have a conscience after all, and Elliott is good as well. The film does tend to drag in a few places, but for the most part, it's a pretty well-written movie that may surprise you with the fact of just how good it is for a B-movie.

This is yet another bad movie that you should probably avoid watching. The plot could be a lot "thicker" than it actually is and would be better made as a blockbuster type movie.

The acting leaves something to be desired, though you can not quite place your finger on what it is.

This is one of those that you watch on late night TV, perhaps on USA, simply because you can not get to sleep. Watch it if you want but do not expect too much from it.

Michael Dudikoff plays against typecasting, as he is cast a cold blooded assassin who helps a framed FBI agent Jason Wells(Brennon Elliot)against his employers. Seems Dudikoff hates his job and seems to want a normal life(Indeed his girlfriend is a teacher, who he practically begs to keep seeing him.) make this an interesting feature. I saw this on HBO when this came out and thought of this as a very above average entry in the straight to video market. However the story is somewhat implausible and there are a few plot holes but generally this is involving stuff that makes this a lot harder edged than you would normally expect. Also Dudikoff and Elliot share good chemistry that develops momentum even in the smaller scenes.
