Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
Deanna There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
sol- Long retired, a former CIA assassin begins to suspect that his overly cheerful and pleasant neighbours are sleeper agents intent on killing him in this energetic comedy from 'Legally Blonde' director Robert Luketic. This imaginative premise leads to several great action scenes as well as a wacky satirical take on white picket fence suburbia with the protagonist finding himself in a community that really is too friendly to be true. Ashton Kutcher 'won' a Razzie for his lead performance and he has never been much of a compelling actor, however, the biggest issue here is that around half the film elapses before the plot truly ignites. Katherine Heigl has some good moments as the innocent naïve girl who Kutcher ends up leaving his assassin career for and marrying, however, too much time is spent on their budding romance and subsequent marital tension before the sleeper agent angle takes off. Never to mind, once the film gets into the swing of things, it rarely lets up and the final hour is enormously entertaining with a supporting cast including 'Big Bang Theory' actor Kevin Sussman showing just how uncanny they can be. Tom Selleck also provides a strong turn as Heigl's stern no-nonsense father and he has a significantly larger role than one might expect. Is debatable whether the film's final twist involving him stands up to close scrutiny, but he offers a memorable performance either way, having to also balance the comedy of Catherine O'Hara, cast as his wife. In short, this is a far better film than one may expect even if the potential for more is striking.
shayden2010 Killers may be Ashton Kutcher's worst film. And that's saying something. Now, if your bored and all your doing is sitting and counting tiles on the floor and Killers is on TV... keep counting the tiles. I can't help but wonder why the people involved in the thought doing this movie was a good idea. This film is so incredibly pathetic, I laughed at it's very concept. The one good comment I have is for Tom Selleck who gives the only decent performance in the entire film. I hope Hollywood will someday apologize to everybody who wasted their time on watching this. The story is so stupid and pointless. I am confused by the good reviews for this film. I can't comprehend why somebody might enjoy garbage like this. In a world that includes good comedy films, why waste your time on a comedy that causes emotional pain instead of laughter? Please, don't watch this. Go watch a good comedy like Dumb and Dumber.
zorp909 Movie has great idea etc... but total ruin for this movie is awful acting performance by Ashton Kutcher. He usually has funny Comedy movies and they are just fine, but this one... horrible, completely ruins the whole movie. Probably that's what Katherine wasn't relaxed either so her acting was on edge to be awful, but still better performed than Ashton.We don't know of course was such acting asked from them by the Director or whoever, but this is not how movies should be played out.So this is definitely NOT recommended movie to watch, you just feel from the start that something is wrong and it keeps on going and going... and you don't see any progress whatsoever...
jotix100 A hired government assassin operating in the French Riviera is seen in action as the story begins. Spencer, disguised as a vacationing tourist, gets to meet the beautiful Jennifer, who has come to Nice to accompany her parents. Spencer and Jen meet and it's instant fireworks. Their romance continue back home after their vacation. Are we surprised we end up getting married? Of course not.Three years of marital bliss go by and suddenly everything starts going haywire in their cozy little world. For one, Spencer's past comes to haunt him. He is being sought by his former handler to do another job. When that man in charge, is killed, Spencer realizes he is in trouble. To complicate things, Jen decides to join him as all kinds of friends and neighbors decide they want to kill Spencer."Killers" was probably a different movie that went through changes and revisions. The finished product is a mess, just to say something nice about it. Directed by Robert Luketic, who did much better work before, it just does not make much sense as it plays on the screen. There is not an ounce of credibility in the way the story plays out. Spencer and Jen prove to be protected by a shield where even Uzis and other fire arms do not even scratch, or nip them. One can only hope the destruction of the lovely suburban Georgia was only make believe.Ashton Kutcher as a French speaking hired gun, ridiculous. Katherine Heigl has done much better in other vehicles. The stars do not show much chemistry together and that is perhaps what is the basic problem. Catherine O'Hara plays Jen's mother, a woman that loves her drink and does not even get drunk after all the liquor she pours for herself. Tom Selleck is Jen's father who has to do a lot in the scheme of things.
