Hitman

About This Movie

So, 'Hitman' (2020) is this gritty little film set in 2045 that revolves around a bounty hunter, who's desperate to save his childhood best friend from prison. The atmosphere is tense, almost claustrophobic, as he grapples with moral dilemmas that really weigh on his conscience. The pacing keeps you on the edge of your seat, with moments that drag just enough to let you soak in the emotional stakes. It’s interesting how the practical effects are used; there's a rawness that complements the sci-fi elements beautifully. The performances feel genuine, especially in the way they navigate complex relationships. There’s a haunting quality to it, making you question how far you'd go for someone you love.
