Hitman Returns

The new buzz in film isn't about another spiderman or Mel Gibson hating on Jews, rather a film to be released soon this year. Yes, Hitman, the once infamous video game that kept players late at night doing contract killing missions and putting on disguises to get pass security. Directed by Xavier Gems and starring Timothy Olyphant, this hyped up film is to be released November 21, 2007. For those who have not played the game, the story is based around 47, the main character, engineered at birth to become an assassin for hire. 47, both his only name and last two digits of the bar code on the back of his head. We follow him as he executes his contracts and discovers his liking to a certain damaged girl. Most people are too excited for this films release, but some are saying that the film is being watered down to fit the ratings. Its originally suppose to be rated R, in which more leverage to what could be shown is available, but their curiosity to seek a wider audience in pg13, might be their undoing. As they would have to water down the entire movie, taking out some of the key elements that make this movie. If all goes well, I will see a rated, R, and can enjoy a storyline I'm familiar with. If not, I'll just go back to wathing porn, I mean reading, yea, reading...
