Plots(1)
Spencer Aimes (Ashton Kutcher) is just your average, undercover, super-assassin accustomed to a life of flashy sports cars and even flashier women. But when he meets Jen Kornfeldt (Katherine Heigl), a fun-loving computer tech, he finds true love and happily trades international intrigue for domestic bliss - that is, until they learn Spencer's the target of a multi-million dollar hit. (Lionsgate Home Entertainment)

A surprisingly decent mind breather. I don’t like Ashton Kutcher much, but Katherine Heigl is enough for both… Several scenes are a little cringe inducing (the beginning), but there are more that are good. I will have forgotten watching it in a couple of days, but right now I have a pretty positive impression. 5/10

A typical American chill-out film with a good portion of clichés, which they tried to wrap in a new packaging. Add an annoying Katherine Heigl and a bunch of “hitmen” who really got on my nerves towards the end, and you have Killers. Fortunately, I wasn't expecting much from the film, so I'm not disappointed. One big plus for me was the perpetually pissed Catherine O'Hara.

Maybe it was all right near the end, it had good pacing, there weren’t really any sparks between the main couple but there could have been. It's just that then you turn it off and think about it, you realize what incredibly nonsensical garbage you just watched. Basically, I don't even know what I'm giving the two stars for. I guess for the pacing and the fact that I didn't fall asleep.

It happens occasionally that I get to a film via its soundtrack. For example, I discovered Killers through the brisk music of one of my favorite contemporary composers, Rolfe Kent. And I'm glad it helped me find this film. Especially in comparison to the debacle Knight and Day, this film feels like a fresh and perhaps original spectacle full of gentle humor and a relaxed atmosphere. Ashton Kutcher (how is that possible??) was not the least bit unsympathetic and he and Katherine Heigl made an interesting couple, but the crown of the cast was put on by the excellent daddy Tom Selleck. Don't be discouraged, endure the first more or less conversational half hour, and I think you'll be entertained by Killers. From the car chase scene to the reactivation of agents of all kinds to the funny ending, I round up a decent three and a half - purely in reference to Tom and Cameron, who lacked everything that can be found in this film.

Except for one hilarious scene where Katherine roughly walks with a gun up her skirt, this movie was pretty boring. Until now, I had no idea Ashton Kutcher could not entertain me. Maybe it was the bad script, maybe it was Katherine, who, in my opinion, didn't look very pretty in the movie... either way, I expected more. NOT GREAT.
