Not sure if this has been mentioned, but my mate just showed me a couple of youtube trailers!

Looks pretty good actually, for a movie tie in. I'm a big fan of the hitman games so looking forward to this!

Agreed! It looks like he will be some kind of hero who saves the world and falls in love with some girl.Not what i expected from a Hitman movie. Looks like it will be a normal action movie.

I've only "seen" the trailer - not listened to it, as I have no sound on work PC

It looked kind of true to the game?

Will listen later...maybe it will change my mind

To be honest had high hopes for the movie since it was directed by the guy who did the excellent "Leon" movie.

But after watching the trailer, I cant help but feel cheated as a fan. I mean what the hell have they done to agent 47? The film just looks like a typical James Bond ripoff.

The guy in the movie seems way too young compared to what I perceived in the game.

hmmm..ok, listened with sound - I dunno - it could still go either way.

Could still be kinda cool. I think I have played all the hitman games and I don't really remember much of a story line running through it?

The trouble is, the hitman is a bit of a cool cat - a man of few words. I don't think they can really make a film and not spoil this?

yeah, and maybe a bit fat in the face as well - he has a slightly baby face look to him, where as the dude in the game doesn't

I'm surprised on how well they're advertising the movie. Several of the clips they showed on discovery were really cheesy. Does he look young? Yeah but 47 wasn't created old.

They should have gotten Richard (Mac) Machowicz to play him.
Navy Seal, Host of Futureweapons on Discover and all around bad ***

He looks just like 47 but I don't know how good an actor he would be.

I still say they shoulda got Vin Diesel or Jason Statham. They both look more like 47. And I get the sinking suspicion that they butchered the story into making 47 a hero/antihero just so that people who didn't play the game can get it.

Who would of believed that Mortal Kombat would still be the best video game movie a decade after its release? I sure didn't...

I agree, the movie trailer looked terrible. I personally think it would have been better if they did a CGI version of a hitman film, at least the main character would look exactly like the original and the story could still stay true to its roots.

Yeah CGI probably would have been better, seeing as they never were going to find anyone who looked or sounded anything like him. (if they did, they didn't hire them)
