Although the movie doesn't blew me away and a lot of the jokes (primarily the ones that came out of Anna Kendrick's mouth, who's character seemingly never shut up) fell flat I must say that in the end I was fairly entertained.
The last 30 minutes in particular were pretty kick ass.
The first hour has it's hit and misses but overall hits, Sam Rockwell is pretty entertaining and there is some entertaining smaller roles Michael Eklund, James Ransone and RZA stand out the most (yeah I know Tim Roth is in it as well, and I like him but the accent he's using threw me a bit off-guard I think).
Sam Rockwell and Anna Kendrick is never gonna be talked about as the greatest film couples of all times by anyone but they had a decent enough chemistry.
One thing I'd like to complain about was the soundtrack, I wasn't really digging that, I don't mind current mainstream pop but the choices in this movie swam mostly upstream for me (the Meghan Trainor one was alright but other than that nah), but I'm sure some will enjoy it.
(For the record Britney's Baby One More Time is not on the soundtrack, I needed a title for the review and that seemed fitting)
All in all a decent hit-man rom com extravaganza packing plenty bullets and little logic, but logic isn't really needed in this case.
6.5/10
