Killers

2010
Rated PG-13

My Rating: 3 out of 5 secrets

Expectation: I expected to simply like this movie. Seemed like a typical ‘boy-meets-girl’ movie with the ‘he’s secretly a hitman’ twist. So, he lies! And then, she gets involved somehow and antics ensue. Been there, seen that several times. Still, it looks cute.

Date Watched: June 13, 2010

Review: While predictable and cliché, I did still enjoy it. Lead actress Katherine Heigl was fantastic. I thought she was fun to watch. I didn’t realize the movie would have as many laughs as it did. The funny parts were from her and Catherine O’Hara. There was a little more death in this movie than I expected. Ashton Kutcher playing an adult was as unbelievable as him playing an assassin.

Who would I recommend this movie to? At first, I was considering to label this a ‘chick flick’. But, there is plenty for guys to appreciate. So, I would recommend this to anyone who is in the mood of a watered-down action-comedy without a lot of plot.

Would I watch this movie again? No.

* This movie gets an Arbie Award for Most Realistic Mother in an Action-Comedy
