Check out the first trailer for Hitman below, courtesy of /Film. They don’t seem to like it for some reason, but over here, we’re all for cautious optimism followed by crushing disappointment when it comes to video-game to movie adaptations.
Hitman is the tale of a genetically engineered assassin (Timothy Olyphant) who goes by the moniker Codename 47. The games were a lot of smart fun and let’s just hope that the film doesn’t go the way of the Resident Evils and tailor the entire movie for mentally challenged, explosion hungry 13 year olds. On the upside, at least Paul (Wank-Stain) Anderson didn’t get his claws into Hitman or we’d most certainly have a crap-fest on our hands.
