Contrary to yesterdays news, Fox has said that the Hitman movie will have a definite R rating and that Xavier Gens is still hard at work editing the film.

- hitman stylee!

You can't have a Hitman movie without violence!

Glad to hear the R rating.

It'd be like the Godfather Series getting re-edited (or at the time, filmed) such that it was watchable for kids as well. Same with Casino, Res Dogs, etc -- these films were never MEANT to be viewed by kids.

And neither is a movie about a "Hitman", for Christ's sake!

I never liked the game, but I may give the movie a chance. Still, It wouldn't have been Hitman if it was a 12A. This news makes me happy.

naokaji · 12th Oct 2007, 13:56

good to hear they are not butchering that movie (or should i say assasinate?

)...
i agree on the that guy looks too friendly part, but hey, maybe the movie will convince me that that guy wasnt the worst choice.

Redbeaver · 12th Oct 2007, 14:36

GOOD.

as i posted in the other newspost's comment, im still giving the benefit of the doubt about agent 47's babyface (afterall, he is a master of disguise), but PG13 rating will definitely make me wanna wait for a DVD's director's cut or somethin...

now, maybe its worth it to actually watch it in the movie.........

.... maybe.

Paradigm Shifter · 12th Oct 2007, 15:57

I have hope for this movie, but it will probably be in vain.

How can a game-based movie thrive when the character, the game was/is based on, doesn't look anything like people were (at the very least) expecting....I mean yes...he's bald....and yes he's caucasian........but he doesn't LOOK anything like 47.....he's got a baby face for Christ's sake!!

CowBlazed · 12th Oct 2007, 18:52

Maybe he looks alot angrier when hes acting the part, face CGI maybe?

metarinka · 12th Oct 2007, 20:23

yah jason statham woulda made a very good agent 47, his character in transporter was very 47 like. Who knows i hope this movie is good, but I have a feeling it won't be spectacular

DXR_13KE · 12th Oct 2007, 21:25

i hope he makes an angry face when he acts...... or else agent 47 will look very wrong....

HourBeforeDawn · 13th Oct 2007, 07:10

ya he was by far the worse actor chosen for this movie, HELL Vin Diesel would have made a better choice then this pasty face guy >_< but Im glad its going to be R

rhuitron · 13th Oct 2007, 10:15

I really hope that the Daul Ballers are not the silver ones that I see made with CGI on the trailer. Those guns seem a LOT smaller but with some sorta long ass Choke.

And like everyone's saying. Yeah. Oliphaunt, certainly has a Baby face. The nose and the Baldness are the only things he has spot on.
Jason on the other hand would have made a thrashing good 47. except for the wee small cockney he's got going on.

But all in all. I am very glad to hear that the movie will have it's rating at a firm R. Other wise, it would have gone badly for fox. I know where the Sleep.

thermalnightmare47 · 15th Oct 2007, 08:01

I do agree that its great that they (the Studio) isn't killing this franchise for the sake of kids that shouldn't be watching in the first place. anyway what's funny about this whole this where i work one of the security guys look almost exactly like agent 47 hence his nickname as 47 lol

Bungle · 15th Feb 2008, 16:41

Saw Hitman last weekend, was pretty impressed tbh. It's a damn fine effort for a game--->film conversion. Plenty of good action sequences. Was disappointed 47 didn't display any emotion whatsoever and I do mean none. The story basically revolves around 47 completing an assassination mission, then being hunted down himself. Cue our hero on a rollercoaster ride trying to discover what it's all about. Definitely worth a watch.
47/60
