I perhaps have a terrible taste but i loved the first Hitman movie, gonna watch this as well simply because its Hitman and it looks like a good popcorn movie.
Oh wow what the fuck is this shit.
Why do the bad guys look like they are wearing paintball gear?
Looks a shitload better than the the other film.
The 2007 one was good.
The actor in this one seems a bit too young.
It might look good as an action film, but bad as a Hitman film.
If you remove 47 from the film, it'll just be a plain action film, there's no features of the game in it, except wearing other people's suit.
Looks like they totally butchered it, what the fuck.
The actor playing 47 doesn't look like the right guy.. He looks.. Small?

The first one was awful, what are you talking about?

I dunno but i went with a few friends to it in the cinema and we all thought it was a pretty fun/good movie. Sure it has nearly nothing to do with Hitman but besides that it was all awesome, i mean that subway scene..
Unsurprisingly it appears it has nothing to do with Hitman at all except for simply using the name.
Shame.
Goddamn it, why can't they just cast David Bateson, make it a low budget "contract killer" movie and call it a day? Agent 47 may be able to take a couple shots but he isn't bending under bullets flying towards him.

I thought that it was ok as a live action film of a video game, comparing to a lot others.
But this one looks just like another plain action film with lots of explosions, there's no hitman feelings in it.
That guy looks and sounds nothing like 47, same with the last movie
Is it really that hard to find an old white bald guy or what
a hitman film shouldn't be about fully blown action, but about stealthy infiltration and assassination missions. If they focused on that and did it well it would be a thousand times better, and also make for a more original film altogether plus being more similar to the original game trilogy (fuck absolution). this just looks like your average shoot em up slow mo explosions summer shit bucket with agent 47 thrown into the mix.
of course, this might be a harsh judgment based on just one trailer but that seems like what they're going for.

The thing is that 47 should've been played by Paul Walker.
To be honest, even with Paul it would be the same, maybe a little better...
yep, looks pretty rubbish
I wonder when they're finally going to do 47 some justice and have a guy with an angry, scrunched up face play him.
That being said, doesn't look too promising-- it'll probably fall flat like the last one.
I don't know, I never finished watching the first movie, the actor just looked silly. I like this one better but it's a shame he isn't a bit more buff and they really should have properly shaved his head.
Plus using disguise in the trailer was nice (does he use a disguise in the first movie?).
I'm slightly looking forward to this.
Other than Agent 47's actor and the cheesy one-liners, this looks like it would be fun to see. Can't wait.
Ironically, making the movie just like the game and pandering to the people who play the games rather than the masses who don't even know this is based on a game will probably make these movies more successful than making it some sort of "Agent 47 in name and tattoo only".
Say whatever you want about the first Silent Hill movie but it was pretty close to the games and it did incredibly well in theaters and sold like crazy on DVD/Blu-Ray.

Too bad the second one was shit.

Studios don't want to take the risk of being anything like the game so in the end fans and non-fans are equally disappointed
Its 2015, why can nobody seem to make a video game movie that doesn't suck ass and is close to the game
Oh no...
Did they learn nothing from the last one?
A Hitman miniseries with David Bateson actually playing as 47 and each episode being a separate contract with different targets/characters without an actual interconnected story arc (or just a minor connection that can justify on wrapping up a big scale finale for it) would probably be the best way to portray a live action Hitman.

Seriously David Bateson is already a pretty decent actor himself, I don't see why he wasn't approached with these things in the first place.

Timothy Olyphant is awesome in Justified, but damn he looks weird in the first Hitman without hair.
[QUOTE=itisjuly;47119551]Looks pretty bad[/QUOTE]
Yeah, looks pretty bad[U][I]ass[/I][/U], i don't know why but I've always love the idea behind the hitman movie, all the bullet-time events and intense action scenes manage to peak my interests way up
