Ratings and reviews

This is a really funny movie. I didn't know anything about it and didn't see the original French film, but picked it as a random movie. The actors are fantastic and Nighy plays this straight faced over stylised assassin really well.

Black Comedy, excellent cast. Ron Weasley is a dope smoking slacker. Very funny. Truth be told this is one I have to own. Oh yeah, Rupert Everett looks amazing and as always damned good!

Seriously boring!!! I get the whole idea of the smart/different "humor", but nah, fail.
