Virtuoso [Movie Review] | This is another movie that I watched just because it was there. When I read the synopsis that it is about a hitman, I was immediately interested to know more.

A hitman who lives a lonely life has managed to master his skill in the field - killing people for contract and make it look like an accident, or whatever way the contractor pleases. He is known for his accuracy and meticulousness. 

All his contracts are given to him via his handler, his father's friend. But all instruction are very cryptic - no name, just time and place of where his next target will be.

He is very proud of his meticulousness in completing his mission. However, in one of his missions, there were collateral damage where a passerby was burnt in a supposedly car accident of his victim. The scenes keep on playing in his mind.

One night, his handler gives him another job that he can't refuse where he has to identify his next target in a diner. 

As there was no direct clue as to whom was his next target, he just kills anyone that was suspicious to him.

Will he be able to find his next target, before he himself becomes the target?

MY REVIEW

Plot: 3.0/ 5.0 This is an example that even with great casts, it does not guarantee success. At first, I was a bit distracted when there was a narrator throughout the movie. 

Then, I started questioning the hitman - if you are that good, how could you make silly mistakes? And truth be told, I had to rewatch the movie as I couldn't understand it the first time through. 

Well, the actions was good, and that compensates the lack of plot for the movie. 

Cast: 4.3/ 5.0 Great actors with beautiful skills put to waste. 

Will I watch it again: No, thanks. 

The pictures are taken from multiple sources on the Internet. Thank you.

  2. I haven't watch Virtouso yet. But I know it's a good movie. Tambahan Sir Anthony Hopkins blakon. Memang la best. Wow......Anson Mount pun blakon juga. Long time no see him. He was hot in Crossroads with Britney Spears.

  9. mesti berat movie ni sampaikan rawlin kena tengok 2 kali semata nak pahamkan jalan cerita yang banyak sangat tanda tanya. Tapi itulah yang menariknya. Selagi tak dapat jawapan selagi tulah tertanya-tanya sama macam situasi watak utama yang asik teringat kejadian yang sama berulang kali .....rupanya penonton pun kena buat benda yang sama baru boleh faham....
