Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

The first 45 minutes is a bit boring, but at least the movie got better after that. There was a lack of humour, enjoyment value, and character development for the drama there to be enjoyable. After the uninteresting part, we get treated to action. It's fast-paced and fun but forgettable. There are some mildly amusing jokes and funny action parts here, but nothing too memorable.The first 45 minutes are almost a waste of time, but after that, it's action that is enjoyable. When compared to Mr. & Mrs. Smith and Knight & Day, the movie contains less action (the action is slightly less enjoyable and more forgettable) and more drama (which is less interesting when compared to the other movies mentioned).+ Some interesting actionDraggy first 45 minutesNothing that funny at all

I saw the trailer for this film during its release, so I remembered the leading actor and actress starring, I think it was them and the title that attracted me to watching, I ignored the negative reviews, directed by Robert Luketic (Legally Blonde, Monster-in-Law, 21). Basically Spencer Aimes (Razzie winning Ashton Kutcher) appears to be an average guy to ordinary people, but he is actually an undercover, government-hired assassin who often spends his time in exotic Euopean locations, flashy cars and surrounded by beautiful women. But things are due to change for him when whilst in Nice, France, he meets beautiful, fun-loving computer technician Jennifer "Jen" Kornfeldt (Katherine Heigl), she is recently recovering from a break-up, Spencer has found true love. In a fairly short period, after returning to America, Spencer finds Jen and is keen to marry her, he gets the permission of her father Mr. Kornfeldt (Tom Selleck) and boozy mother Mrs. Kornfeldt (Catherine O'Hara), Jen is overjoyed, and Spencer drops international intrigue for domestic bliss. Of course escaping the assassination business is not that easy for Spencer, there will always be someone trying to catch or kill him, it is on his 30th birthday that he is now the target of a multi-million dollar hit, and worse is that the stalkers have been watching him and Jen for years, they could be close friends, neighbours, grocery store staff or an old man across the street. Jen is shocked to find out Spencer's true profession when he is targeted in their own home, they are forced to go on the run, their happy suburban life turns into a paranoid game of dodge-the-bullet, she is naturally mad that he has hidden this secret from her all the years they have been together. Spencer and Jen must now find out who is targeting him and why, while also trying to rescue their marriage in the process, manage the in-laws and keep up appearances to the neighbours, and just survive the chaos. Also starring Katheryn Winnick as Vivian, Kevin Sussman as Mac Bailey, Lisa Ann Walter as Olivia Brooks, Casey Wilson as Kristen, Rob Riggle as Henry, Martin Mull as Holbrook, Family Guy's Alex Borstein as Lily Bailey and rapper Usher Raymond a Kevin the Manager. Kutcher has always been a limited actor, only The Butterfly Effect and Punk'd stand out in mind as being any good, he cannot pull off the charming hit-man image well enough, at least Heigl is nice looking and is amusing being both unknowing and feisty, Selleck gets his moments as the wise father and O'Hara is likable as the often drinking and mugging mother. This could have been a good film, but it is a bit mixed throughout, the first half with the couple falling for each other while the guy's secret is hidden is fine, and it certainly picks up with pace once they are in danger from other hit men, but it can be predictable most of the way, and I admit I didn't laugh a lot, I don't think it's as bad as one star out of five like critics give it, it's not the worst action comedy. Adequate!

This man is responsible for directing the deplorable films, "Monster-in- Law" and "The Ugly Truth." His latest project is "Killers", which could have very possibly murdered his own career. He had it coming.But, if this director pulls through and keeps making more movies as bad as "Killers", or "The Ugly Truth", or "Monster-in-Law", the only title he'll earn is, "The M. Night Shyamalan of Romantic Comedies." May he, for the love of filmmaking, consider my thoughts.Beware of a director named Robert Luketic; he makes really bad movies.Read more here: http://localmoviereview.com/killers-movie-review/
