slightlymad22 Hit-man Spencer (Ashton Kutcher) meets and falls in love with Jenny (Katherine Heigl) whilst he is on a mission and she is on holiday in Nice. He immediately retires and settles down for a quiet life. Happy married 3 yeas later, their perfect life is ruined when a $20 million dollar price is put on his head. It's not hard to see what attracted Ashton Kutcher to killers Teaming up with 'Greys Anatomy' star Katheine Heigel seemed like a good idea, as she was doing well in the Romantic Comedy genre with 'Knocked Up' and 'The Ugly Truth' both grossing over $200 million while '27 Dresses' made over $100 million at the Box OfficeWhilst 'What Happened In Vegas' with Cameron Diaz made over $200 million, 'The Guardian' with Kevin Costner under performed and 2009's 'The Spread' only made $12,000,000 Kutcher is likable and is the only real reason to see this, Heigl is really annoying as she does a really bad impression of Goldie Hawn in 'Bird On A Wire' for the entire movie.Tom Selleck appears as Heigl's dad, and seems to think he is in a different movie. Give it a miss. Avoid it like the plague. Tell your friends to pass it by. With the exception of Kutcher, the acting is bad, bad, bad (Tom Selleck included)

nelsonic Ashton and Katherine are both pleasant on the eye and I love me some Magnum P.I, but this movie was a complete waste of time! This film will not make you think. Its cookie-cutter formula is designed to be an Action-Packed-Rom-Com but delivers nothing new/fresh in the process. Your time is precious; watch a documentary or read a book instead!The cliché assassin/spy who falls in love decides to put his killing days behind him to live a "normal" life has been done to death! There's nothing new here. As the other 1-star reviewer says it follows a formula: - - SPOILER ALERT - - -Act 1 - Back Story, Meeting, Falling "in love" and Marriage - Killer (Kutcher) introduced driving Ferrari on French Riviera pursuing arms dealer "target". - Love interest (Heigl) introduced on flight to French Riviera along with her alcoholic mother (O'Hara) and (ex-CIA?) father (Selleck). Minimal "back story" provided that Heigl has just go through a breakup and is now on the rebound. - Killer and Love interest meet in French Riviera (hotel elevator - gratuitous shot of Ashton's abs as he's about to go scuba to blow up the arms dealers helicopter...) - Killer and Love interest fall in love and go exploring (south of France scenery) #Montage - Killer and Love interest get married.Act 2 - A "Normal" Life in the Suburbs - Recycled set from "The Joneses" or "Desperate Housewives" (gets destroyed in Act 3...) - Fast forward 3 years of Killer and Love Interest living a "normal" suburban life as a construction manager and security software sales-woman respectively. ( she uses her computer skills to access the content of USB "flash drive" in 3rd Act) - Killer receives message from old boss "H" (from days as a killer). Father-in-law (Magnum P.I.) spots that Killer is in contact with his killer boss and activates sleepers in Killer's normal life. - Love interest - now Wife - throws Killer Surprise Birthday Party with everyone invited. - Killer finds out that his business partner (Rob Riggle) is a sleeper when he tries to kill him the morning after the party.Act 3 - Everyone is trying to Kill the Killer - Most of the neighbors and work colleagues were sleeper agents and now want to kill Ashton for "20 Million Dollar Bounty". Killer has to pick off each one as they try to kill him ... - Wife discovers she is pregnant. Poorly used plot device. - Killer discovers that Wife's father was the one who set the "bounty" on his head. - Killer and father-in-law team settle differences after teaming up to "take out" the remaining sleepers.Act 4 - Killer and Love Interest's Baby is born and life returns to normal. - Killer and Wife entrust their new-born to Parents and go out on "Date Night".The End.Admittedly there were some interesting moments: car chase in construction site, who's an assassin, who isn't? Hold on what am I saying!? Almost every scene/idea was recycled (stolen) from other movies! This was a 99% copy-paste job which would get an "F" or "P" (plagiarizing!) if academically graded. It turns out that Magnum P.I. knew Kutcher was a killer all along and "planted sleepers" in his life that would be "activated" (i.e. "take him out") if he returns to killing. Where have we seen that before...? As the other 2-star reviewer says this is a Cheaper version of Mr. & Mrs Smith. and if you've watched that, you will be disappointed by this. I know 2-star is Harsh because a lot of people worked on this film, but I just want to warn others not to WASTE 2 hours of their lives when there are *many* other GREAT films out there! Just go thru the IMDb 250 and find one you haven't seen ... http://www.IMDb.com/chart/top

efrainm0817-196-247012 the film is just good fun. Anyone who complains just has the mentality of all the other stupid brain washed people who think its so easy to make a movie. Killers was a simple idea about a hit man who is trying to make it in life as a normal suburban guy. The film isn't meant to be taken seriously its just one of those films that makes you smile and have a good time watching it. The comedy wasn't laugh my f-ing ass off funny but it had the awkward real life humor that you find your friends saying and it just comes out wrong. In the end the film portrays the rich as backstabbing and greedy assholes. Im not sure I'm the only one who noticed. The movies great, Ashton kutcher was surprisingly great in this, and I loved it to the fullest. Watch it as it is, a great fun action flick.

jotix100 A hired government assassin operating in the French Riviera is seen in action as the story begins. Spencer, disguised as a vacationing tourist, gets to meet the beautiful Jennifer, who has come to Nice to accompany her parents. Spencer and Jen meet and it's instant fireworks. Their romance continue back home after their vacation. Are we surprised we end up getting married? Of course not.Three years of marital bliss go by and suddenly everything starts going haywire in their cozy little world. For one, Spencer's past comes to haunt him. He is being sought by his former handler to do another job. When that man in charge, is killed, Spencer realizes he is in trouble. To complicate things, Jen decides to join him as all kinds of friends and neighbors decide they want to kill Spencer."Killers" was probably a different movie that went through changes and revisions. The finished product is a mess, just to say something nice about it. Directed by Robert Luketic, who did much better work before, it just does not make much sense as it plays on the screen. There is not an ounce of credibility in the way the story plays out. Spencer and Jen prove to be protected by a shield where even Uzis and other fire arms do not even scratch, or nip them. One can only hope the destruction of the lovely suburban Georgia was only make believe.Ashton Kutcher as a French speaking hired gun, ridiculous. Katherine Heigl has done much better in other vehicles. The stars do not show much chemistry together and that is perhaps what is the basic problem. Catherine O'Hara plays Jen's mother, a woman that loves her drink and does not even get drunk after all the liquor she pours for herself. Tom Selleck is Jen's father who has to do a lot in the scheme of things.
