A lot of fun.

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

This is my favourite movie! I think the actors made an incredible job and the director too. I have to say, I envy a lot Emily's wardrobe in this movie, thumbs up to the stylist! She's always wearing something different and original. The best thing about this movie is the different characters and their outstanding personalities. They each have a very different and uncommon way of thinking, they're authentic in everything they do! The songs in the movie are also very British which helps to create a good atmosphere in the motion picture. Perhaps the fact that most of the actors are well-know and famous British actors makes the movie an absolute must-Watch!

This movie was picked up at the video shop so as to make up the four DVDs that I was hiring for the cheap price, and as it turned out, this was the better of the four movies that I hired. Victor Maynard is 54 and an assassin. He has no friends, and the only family he has is his mother, who lives in a nursing home, and is his only source of company (other than his cat). She is very well aware of his occupation, and he has gone into his father's profession, and is mother is quite a piece of work as well.However life is about to change for Maynard, and it involves a small time thief and con-woman, Rose. She upsets somebody when she 'borrows' a painting, has it copied, and then sells the copy to an art collector, who quickly discovers that it is a copy. So he hires Victor Maynard to get even with Rose. However, Maynard discovers that not all contracts are equal, and that it can be hard to separate professionalism from emotion.It is not that Maynard falls in love with her, he eventually does, but not at the beginning. He simply cannot kill her. No matter how hard he tries, she just seems to continue to slip through his fingers, and it is only when she discovers him, and he is forced to kill another hit man to uphold his reputation, that he suddenly finds himself being moved from a killer to a protector. Further, protecting somebody is a lot harder than simply killing somebody (as Maynard discovers), though in Rose's case, killing her was not that easy either.At the start the movie is quite amusing, however this diminishes when they get out of London and hide out in his country estate. The movie then degenerates into a standard hit man type movie where he finally discovers that he has a heart, and that he wants to settle down. Still, during his adventure, he has also picked up an apprentice, though this apprentice simply seemed to be in the right place at the right time. Most hit-man movies has the apprentice beg to become the apprentice of the aging hit-man, however here Maynard offers it to Tony, who, believing he is a private detective, takes him up on his offer.

It's basically a very good movie. It comes to me as refreshment after "Hollywood style comedies". though I must say I am not a huge fan of British movies (OK, good ones come now and then) but I really enjoyed it. OK, beginning is not that interesting (I almost turned it off) but as soon as Emily gets in the picture the movie kicks off and from than and it's as interesting as can be.Plot is very interesting with nice script and funny scenes and lines. Emily is just brilliant in this movie (as most of hers) and Ruppert Grint give such a funny note to film, his character is hilarious. Anyway, it's great thing to just kick back and relax, spend some 100 minutes on funny relaxing movie.

The title clearly shows what we'll get from this extraordinary comedy. Emily Blunt and Bill Nighy give a rich and refined performance and the screenplay is simply gorgeous. Casting, cameras, costume, locations, punch lines: congratulations to all the team. A British must!So why a few stars missing? The music has its ups and downs. Good choice of songs but a main soundtrack is missing Some specific chapters lack musical support to be really effective. The speedy cameras on the car chases are definitely avoidable. Details that perhaps the director could have reconsidered... Still a wonderful, enjoyable film.
