Kiss & Kill

Killers...So unreasonably stupid, I actually enjoyed it!

I went to see this one to make up for my needy romantic comedy desires unfulfilled by "The Bounty Hunter". I gotta say; it isn't as intriguing as I wanted but to a certain extent enjoyable. "Killers" is a story about Jen (Katherine Heigl), recently dumped, who goes on vacation with her parents to France where she meets Spencer (Ashton Kutcher) the man of her dreams. As they become 3 years married, violent secrets about lovely Spencer begin to unveil and then the adventures begin.

"Killers" is one foolish, unrealistic, anything-can-happen, whatever- the-director-wants kind of movie. You'll find it impossible to judge it with reason. If you drop your brains at the door of the theater, and decide to enjoy a sequence of some random eye candy scenes with good looking characters running around, you'll love it. "Killers", just like other movies this year, is a based on one fabulous idea, that could have been well executed to create a different kind of film.

Moreover; I think this movie is chronologically impaired (definitely not in a Tarantino way). The events are in a timely order, but in a wildly shifting manner. Things happen so fast and you're moving from one stage in the story to the other so quickly. It makes you think they're underestimating your intelligence. You'll find yourself, in many parts of the movie, saying "really??" sometimes out loud. But then again, leave them brains out of the game.

Kutcher appears as charming as usual, but ironically, he fits in the character he fakes a lot more than his real one in the movie. Heigl who's undoubtedly one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood these days, brings in her funny side and succeeds to give a few chuckles. Finally, Tom Selleck and Catherine O'Hara who portray Heigl's parents add their 2 pennies of comedy during their short appearances which are nothing less than amusing.

In a nutshell, "Killers" is a comical, no story, chain of events that take place in no brains land. Watch it with just your eyes and you may have fun. You may also give yourself one free pass to use your brains so that you can imagine the whole lot of events that happen off the screen as they're surprisingly more than what happens on it.

Let's start of with saying that Robert Luketic knows how to direct, the pace in the movie is good, he never takes this film to serious and he know how to film a couple of good scenes.

Katherine Heigl has shown to us that she can be funny in comedies, check the ugly truth if you need proof. Ashton Kutcher however.. is not good. Which hurts the film because he's the leading man in this film. They've made better actors then him do straight to DVD films.

I don't want to spoil much about the movie, however the trailer practically tells the whole story and shows some of the best bits of the film. But the pace is good, sometimes it's funny and the action was good. But it has all been done before and in better films.

So it's not rubbish, but it's not good either. I recommend you wait until it's released on DVD and hope that Knight and day will be better.

I would give this a 6.5 if I could.

Surprisingly fun movie. Kutcher and Heigl worked pretty well together (it's a shame that she's caused so much trouble,, she really is good at what she can do, and by that, I mean she's one dimensional).

Girl meets boy,, boy sweeps her off her feet,,, 3 yrs of wedded bliss,,,, are those bullets flying over our heads?!? YIPE!!!

It's fun 👍

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Action and humor. Surprising cameos

This is a nice movie, but Ashton Kutcher does not quite ring true as the assassin. I know real spied are not to stand out and be noticed the way James Bond is. But still I think another actor might have been better in the action sequences. The rest of the cast is just perfect, especially Katherine Heigl.
