O Jogo do Assassino

The Killer's Game delivers straightforward action with enough entertainment to keep you watching, though it's nothing revolutionary. The fight scenes are decent, but not on par with the gold standard that is John Wick. The cast of quirky assassins that span the world add some fun, almost like they're from Street Fighter just with less depth. Dave Bautista does his usual tough-guy routine, and while he's good, it's familiar territory for him.

The concept-an assassin accidentally putting a hit on himself due to a medical mistake-is unique, but the execution is predictable. There are laughs and a few solid action moments, but nothing that really stands out.

Overall, it's a fun and gory film that's enjoyable if you're looking for an easy, action-filled watch. Just don't expect it to leave a lasting impression.

This is a fun little movie, isn't very original nor very memorable but fun while it is on. To be clear, this had to be filmed as a movie not intended to go to theaters but it was better than expected. Dave Bautista, while looking odd, does a great job as he finally gets an action movie where he is the lead man

The plot is simple, introducing zany comic book type assisins and then killing them off in incresingly comically violent ways. Ben Kingsley and a Catholic priest are the comic relief and surprisingly that works really well, some good laughs. Scott Adkins and Terry Crews have smaller roles but always bring something fun to their performances.

I also appreciated the excessing grenade use in this film. I feel in real life hitmen would use grenades instead of exposing themselves for a gunfight. It is a movie of course, but eveyrone uses grenades first, and I approve of that.

You don't have to go to a theater to see it, but definately watch it when it comes to home video or streaming as it is a fun watch. There was scattered applause when the credits rolled and others seemed to generally like it.

I'll say at least this for Dave Batista, he has great comedic timing. Is that enough to make him a leading man. All I can say is i already miss the muscle mass.

The strange part was watching Batista fake what he use to do on a nightly basis in a wrestling ring. I mean, despite losing 75 libs he's still a big man who stands out in a crowd making it far too easy to notice when a stuntman is being use for a simple body slam. Hollywood has tamed the animal.

On a positive note However, the action was good and the movie was funny. I thought it was perfect that the movie knew what it was to the point that it poked fun at itself. That just gave it the charm needed to cover up whatever it was missing

A cool watch.

It's not a great movie in the sense of story and ground breaking.

What it is it's an awesome action movie that makes up for story by giving the audience what they want... unadulterated violence that is both creative and fun. The movie is surprisingly funny where it makes up for the story itself.

The cast is just amazing. With each character, no matter small, is interesting. If the movie has more success, it would be absolutely amazing to see each character get their own movies.

Again, it's not going to garner Oscars or serious discussion but if you want to be entertained this movie will check all the boxes.

I was expecting that JJ Perry having been in the army would actually know something about how weapons work, especially fragmentation grenades, but I was sadly disappointed. Also, as a stunt guy, I was thinking he could come up with cool but realistic stunts. But again, the stunts were contrived and defied physics.

I loved Bautista in GotG, Drax had depth, where Joe, an assassin, was BORING and predictable. Sofia's acting is a step up from David's, but still was a low for her. Again, this could have been the result of really poor directing.

Ben Kingsley and Alex Kingston consummate professionals that don't need a director, performed excellently. They accounted for a star by themselves.

Good concept bumbled by a over reaching stunt man.
