Killers

Released June 4, 2010
Directed by Robert Luketic
Starring: Ashton Kutcher, Katherine Heigl, Tom Selleck, Catherine O’Hara

First viewing June 5, 2010
Jolly: 2/5 stars

Lonely lady meets attractive man whilst vacationing in France with her parents. Snooze fest. “But wait!” cries the producer, a.k.a. Ashton Kutcher. “What if popular actress Katherine Heigl is the lonely lady and I star as this attractive man, and what if this guy is a secret agent?” Pow! Injects life into the story! But wait a minute…when they meet and fall in love, this guy quits being a secret agent. Snooze fest once again. Sigh.

This movie drags too much for being billed as action/comedy. So this secret agent dude pines for a “normal” suburban life where he will know all his neighbours…then it turns out all his neighbours want to kill him…then the wife learns of his secret past and gets involved…then the wife finds out she is pregnant…then they all find out that this was one BIG misunderstanding. Sigh.

This movie was a waste of time. If you’re looking to watch something in this genre, watch Mr. & Mrs. Smith. End of review.
