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.

It's an unusual film with a slightly uneven plot, but it kept my interest until the end altho' the reason why it ends like it does are unclear but I'm guessing there's no honour amongst thieves (or hitmen). Decent performances from all concerned and if you fancy a slow burner with a few twists you could do worse than watch this. 7.5/10.

A thriller, a kind of investigation carried out by a hit man through his point of view.

Entertaining and well interpreted and staged.

Ok, at first I got hooked by the trailer, which set me to expect something good out of this movie, and by Anthony Hopkins, who's (usually) a safe bet. And it was a mistake, I admit!

All characters are pretty flat and shallow, dialogue is superficial and performance is disengaging (specially Abbie Cornish!), and sequence of event's does not make any sense

Put all of that aside. Finishing the movie in retrospect I asked myself: WTF just happened??? The only answer my super ego dictated was that I wasted another 1:30 hrs of my life due to not responding to my gut feeling that it's a trap!

I really wanted to like this movie, but I couldn't. 5 stars for cinematography and Hopkins performance, zero for everything else except Abbie Cornish's performance that is -2!

If you find this review unhelpful (which is a sorta true) then imagine your disappointment when you watch this movie! Sorry.

I don't know why people are so negative. I liked the slow pacing and, while I wasn't crazy about the monologue, it worked well enough. His voice is suited to it. Not a typical plot but not innovative. Satisfying enough.
