It's 97 percent critics, 93 percent audiences on Rotten Tomatoes; yup, it's a hit, man.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jun 17, 2024

A pleasant enough watch, but when it comes time to choose between comic book reality and grounded reality, 'Hit Man' ends up sort of halfway between.

Full Review | Original Score: B- | Jun 17, 2024

This ultra-cool take on the assassination sub-genre, finds Glen Powell on top form as Gary Johnson. A full-time teacher and part-time undercover operative who masquerades as a hitman. Be sure to check this out on Netflix sooner rather than later.

Wickedly funny, sexy and a showcase for disguise if ever there was one in this take on the film noir, with a femme fatale and a fall guy who give the fate of the romantic couple a dubious twist

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 17, 2024

Thanks to a sharp script and an explosive chemistry among its protagonists, this mix of genres is a great way to kill a couple of hours. [Full Review in Spanish]

An irony of twists and comedy of errors, “Hit Man” is an entertaining tale of role plays and possibilities.

Full Review | Jun 16, 2024

...three different movies but never feels disconnected or disjointed. It transforms into character as effortlessly and entertainingly as Powell does.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 15, 2024

Linklater's curiosity is endearing—and enduring—but what makes him a major director is that he's less interested in easy answers than hard truths.

Full Review | Jun 15, 2024

The talk in Hit Man, which conveys the twisted fury of desire, makes this film a far more satisfying and substantial love story...

Full Review | Jun 15, 2024

This cleverly knotty crime yarn kills it.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 15, 2024

This film has no drama, no pace, and barely any character development.

Full Review | Jun 14, 2024

Had I not known it was based on an actual person, I would've thought "This is ridiculous, none of this happened, you're just making stuff up"... Yet it's loosely based on a true -- yet pointless -- story.

Glen Powell demonstrates why he's Hollywood's new star in this smart and sexy screwball comedy with a hint of neo-noir. [Full Review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 14, 2024

Once again, director Richard Linklater takes an implausible story and makes all of its complicated characters engaging and believable.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 14, 2024

The mood here is lightly comic, then seriously romantic, and finally dourly cynical. In any case, you’ve got to admire a film that sucks you in with a title like “Hit Man” and then never so much as waves a weapon.

Full Review | Original Score: B | Jun 14, 2024

Hit Man is an absolute joy -- a highly entertaining, based-on-a-true-story romantic comedy that is the perfect example of what happens when everything comes together.

Full Review | Original Score: A- | Jun 14, 2024

Hit Man is breezily acted, consistently funny, often charming, and noir enough to provide a great time in the theater.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 14, 2024

Funny, engaging comedy thriller — among the year’s most delightful movies.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 14, 2024

While it's not the missed-salvation-of-cinema piece that so much hyperbole on the internet wants to exclaim, HIT MAN is great. Powell is a star. Arjona is a superstar.

Full Review | Original Score: 8/10 | Jun 14, 2024

Hit Man is endlessly interested in the idea of self, and the sometimes minor differences in how people behave when they’re with others and when they’re by themselves.
