James Sanchez The movie Interview with a Hit-man does many things well in terms of crime fiction. First of all it combines the idea that a killer is not just an instrument of death but a person with some natural human feeling hidden deep beneath the layers of hatred and evil. Viktor the young paid killer in the story becomes cold and cruel as a result of his circumstances rather than by choice. This doesn't dismiss the fact that he is still a killer, but it does make the audience sort of sympathize with him more. This is especially true when he decides to start changing in the second half of his life.

TeonJaya My favorite phrase in the whole film is 'My name is Viktor.' The charisma with which the actor playing Victor says these lines absolutely amazes me. It's almost like listening to the Casanova of murder. The film Interview with a Hit-man opens up with a series of disconnected scenes that later come together like the pieces of a puzzle, and then the story plays out. The only thing I didn't like the film was that I felt it was a bit too violent and so realistic. However the violence was toned down, and some of it even justified in the end.

joe blow Typical tough guy too cool for everything hit man character without emotion except when he sees a woman getting beaten like his mother then he supposedly jumps into righteous hero mode. Predictable and formulated with incessant droning music that makes you want to take a bullet yourself just to end the monotony. And enough with the shaky camera, it literally does not stop quivering for a split second during the whole movie. Even reigning hand held twitchy kings like the Bourne flicks take a break from that once in a while during the story. The twist at the end is not even enough to rescue this flick from an hour and a half exercise in dreariness.

ksaclo It is about damn time, an underdog low budget movie is straight up done good. The storyline, good, the acting (for the most part) good, no over the top ridiculousness, very believable. Everybody's gripes about how the rating is to low is exactly right. This is a very good movie and can easily make my top 50. Not a lot of Hollywood, which makes this movie even better. Two thumbs way up. The worst part of the movie, is they tend to talk a little low so I had to turn on the subtitles and you have to pay attention to the names and who is who, because it jumps around a little in time. Other than that, it is a solid movie and deserves to have it's rating brought up to at least a 7. I would probably put it at 7.25.
