*** very minor spoilers ***
I just watched this one, and I have to say: I'm underwhelmed. The biggest problem of the movie, for me, was the main character. This guy is supposed to be a top-notch professional killer... yet he makes one mistake after the other. The movie starts with him citing four rules to being a successful killer... right after which he goes on to break all of them. I wouldn't hire that guy. He leaves traces all over the place, he falls in love and he begins teaching a student while on an assignment. How stupid can you get?
I understand they probably wanted to have some sort of drama here with the love story and the student, but that just falls flat on the face when your character isn't believable in the slightest.
Other than the ridiculous main character crippling the story, the action isn't stellar, either.
Overall, very forgettable. Far from being so bad that it gets funny again and sadly far from being good.
