Killers

Killers is another movie you will watch and forget as soon as you've seen it, in spite of an impressive cast: , , and . The film (2010) was directed by . The story goes like this: Spencer Aimes, a government-hired super-assassin, is on a mission on the French Riviera when he bumps into Jen Kornfeldt, a beautiful woman recovering from a bad break-up. They fall in love, they marry, and Spencer decides to retire and take on a normal job. Three years later, on the morning after Spencer's 30th birthday, Jen discovers her husband's past and the couple realise he is the target of a multi-million dollar hit. Killers are on the loose and will try anything to murder Spencer. Those killers include anyone, from neighbours to colleagues or  strangers. Spencer and Jen are soon on the run for their lives. This movie reminded me a little of True Lies (with Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jamie Lee Curtis) except that True Lies was much more clever, and, believe or not, much more subtle. It's not all bad, you don't have time to get bored, some bits are quite funny, and Heigl and Kutcher are gorgeous, but it's far from reaching the mark. Watch it on a plane or if you're brain-dead after a hard week's work.
