Wild Target (8/10)

After watching "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" this was something I needed. "Scott Pilgrim" took the style to the limit while "Wild Target" minimizes it (although I love "Scott Pilgrim").  It's not a stylish movie but that does not mean it's a bad one. This is a hilarious movie with interesting characters and plot devices to all add up to a great time. Victor (Bill Nighy) is a hit man on the verge of retirement. He's classy smart and sophisticated. This would be James Bond if he wasn't a womanizer (but who wants that). One last job requires him to kill art thief Rose (Emily Blunt). Well wild events causes the two and the youngster Tony (Rupert Grint) to go into hiding as several dangerous people including rival hit man Hector (Martin Freeman) go on the hunt. I actually read a short story like this once, I liked that one and sure as hell liked this movie. The humor comes in all shapes and sizes and never takes a break. Not the greatest movie in the world (not that original) but watch this and tell me you didn't have a good time. I'll be looking at a liar.

8/10
Recommendation: It's a pretty funny action/comedy. Lot's of fun from the actors. Ron Weasley with a patchy beard running around with a gun and samurai sword is quite the sight.
