Sep 30, 2011"Hitman", despite its frantic pace with monotonous dialogue added in, is a great counterexample of "game-based movies suck". Its a film that you will enjoy.
Nov 25, 2012sh*ts on the games. literally ruined american cinema as we know it today. my life will never be the same. asdfghjklkjhgfdsasdfghjklkjhgfdsaSDFGHJKLKJHGFDSASDFGHJKLKJH
Sep 11, 2012Not the worst video game movie I've ever seen, but still a pretty horrible one. I've never played a game in the Hitman series so I can't compare it to them. The action is mildly entertaining, but the gore is to fake to be believable and just seems to be in it for the sake of having it. The script is a series of predictable moments that you've seen happen a million times in other movies. The acting and characters are awful, and timothy olyphant makes for one of the worst main characters of all time, but that may just be do to the writing, he has no personality and constantly has the stupidest look on his face at all times. This movie sucks, it's almost bad as the Uwe Boll video game movies. Don't watch this crappy movie.… Collapse
Mar 2, 2011This movie is awesome and has great action. Great acting by Timothy Olyphant and he's great in Justified too. The critics always get negative on movie that were based on video games anyway so screw the critics.
May 11, 2011Easily one of the most underrated game adaptations. The action sequences are solid (accept the cheesy 4 man hitman fight that was added later by another director â
Dec 29, 2011Moi qui pensais que Resident Evil était l'adaptation la moins fidèle du jeu vidéo dont elle est tirée... Je n'avais pas vu Hitman... Bon, je l'accorde, ce dernier est bien meilleur que Afterlife. Mais franchement, comment peut-on oser proposer une adaptation à mille lieues de l'oeuvre originale, sans avoir peur de mettre en colère les nombreux adeptes du jeu? Car le film de Xavier Gens n'a rien d'un Hitman : meurtres barbares, shooter movie, fusillades à gogo... alors que le tueur agit normalement avec la plus grande discrétion... A la place, nous avons un navet sans âme, ni scénario, ni bons acteurs, ni intérêt, comme Luc Besson sait si bien produire. Il reste à ce Hitman de quoi se divertir pendant 1h30, mais c'est loin d'être suffisant pour être à la hauteur d'un Transporteur, qui avait le mérite de proposer des séquences d'action très efficaces sans être limité par son statut (en tant que film unique et non une adaptation).… Expand
Aug 25, 2014Hitman looks good, in and outside the action, of which there's plenty. Bloody and action-filled, with some slow-motion sequences to make some of the shooting scenes a little more impressive.
There isn't too much to the plot - or, let's say, the plot is there and it is complex, but it is not too much explained. That might make the movie seem a little worse than it is, plot wise. Maybe a few more repeats with the movie and/or knowing the game would help with that.
What really works for Hitman is that the main character, 47, stays the same from beginning to end. Sure, there are signs of softening, but in the end the movie isn't ruined with a happy ending and romantic affairs.… Expand
Apr 26, 2013Not good at all. Firstly it is nothing like the video games (well I had to mention this, because after all it is supposed to be a Hitman movie), it just using the name to generate more sales. Secondly this film is just a generic action movie, with no character depth or development. After the first 20 minutes you have seen it all, the director will just repeat the same things until the last frames. Not even the action scenes are anything good. Mr. Timothy Olyphant is not a bad actor, but this role did not really suit him. Not recommended.… Expand
Mar 22, 2013An inane, poorly crafted, and ultimately uninteresting film. Pretty trashy even by video game movie standards. Goes without saying that its relationship with the video game series is entirely superficial.
Nov 16, 2012Bloody, action packed but never stupid. An exiting plot that doesn't have to hide from a Bourne story, Timothy Olyphant and Dougray Scott as hero and antihero or the other way round, you feel with both. Not for the faint-hearted, but especially for fans of the video game a full indulgence.
Nov 28, 2012It has a few eye-catching set pieces, but this video game adaptation takes more pleasure in cliche than actually crafting a worthwhile story.
Mar 20, 2013I was never a big fan of the games, and I'm not telling the game fans about what opinion to hold. All I know is that I enjoyed the movie myself. The action, plot and characterization worked well. The movie is not long enough to become boring. If anything, I wanted it to be longer.
Feb 19, 2014Not a bad movie, but neither is good. A watchable action movie that doesn't portrait the Hitman from the games.
The action is quite over the top, helicopter gunships... really... the fighting sequences are nice, the acting is ok and the visual effects and soundtrack fit the quality needed for a good movie. The strongest feature of the movie is in my opinion the plot, really good and solid, would say, quite original.
My main complaint with this movie is of a political?/racial?/national? nature. Basically the main character is a murderer without restraints, killing cops left and right, but it's like its all good because they are Russian... it feels like a 80's anti-soviet propaganda movie, from start to end, Russians in the movie are either evil, incompetent, cannon fodder and the only nice people are the whore and the fat cop... honestly this movie is absolutely xenophobic... Then it ends with that almighty CIA showoff in the end... "we do what we want in the middle of Moscow and even make fun in your face"... come on... seriously...
So if you want a decent action movie with an interesting plot and decent action, look no further. If you want to see something that reminds you of the Hitman from the game series, expect disappointment. If you want a more "realistic" action movie in the realm of the Bourne movie series, then this isn't the movie for you.… Expand
Jan 1, 2014Flopman..
Hitman tries to give a suspenseful narrative style but bored the hell out of me. Few action sequences were enjoyable but just at par but apart from that it falls flat. Performances were poor to average and the bad script and dialogues made this movie based on video game(never heard about it until I saw the movie) even worse. The story of a assassin who looked like computer programmed robot(that's how he was supposed to be though..ugh) drawn into political conspiracy did not generate much interest either. Overall Hitman may please a few people who like such game-based action flicks but in general it's unlikely this movie will impress someone at random with high chances it may frustrate more often.
Personally I hated this movie badly but I won't say everyone will hate this.
Hitman was a flop for me.… Expand
Mar 15, 2014I liked this movie. I don't understand why so many people hate it, probably because we are looking on the internet. Anyway, if you haven't seen it and your a Hitman fan definitely check this out. I would put this up near the Bond films as my favorite "spy" films. When I picked this up from my local FYE I thought it was gonna be a bad movie where Hollywood would make a quick buck. It actually stayed close to it's game based roots as far as gadgets and stealth tactics go. Although it was a little weird seeing 47 "fall in love", the movie still was able to portray him as a cold blooded killer. It was interesting that Hitman: Absolution showed 47 had a softer side in the game. I wished they had released the game first, if that happened then the movie would make sense. Seeing that Agent 47 isn't just a "Robotic Killer" as seen in the older games. Don't let the negativity fool you into missing out on this movie. If you collect game items or game related items, or just a Hitman fan, buy this from your local FYE. It's not as bad as people say.… Expand
A Eurotrashy vidgame knockoff that misses its target by a mile. Numbingly unthrilling as it lurches from one violent encounter to another, the pic's dark roots in an electronic, non-dramatic medium are plain to see, and unsuspecting gamers lured to theaters will soon wish they were back home participating in the action themselves.
The movie's one saving grace is Olyphant ("Live Free and Die Hard," HBO's "Deadwood"), whose sociopathic elegance is gradually winning, and whose dry, monotonic, Eastwood-like delivery of one-liners is frequently, if perhaps unintentionally, very funny.
Ultimately Hitman is about bullets, blood, and bombs. For die-hard fans of the videogame, there is much to relish in terms of cobblestone car chases, punishing fistfights, cool weaponry, impossible physical feats, and ear-popping gun battles that rage through exclusive hotels in exotic locations.

main index
Most stories that are in a school setting feature a mean, but insanely popular girl and a likeable, but considerably less popular girl who will invariably be at odds with each other. In the worst case scenario, each will routinely be at the other's throat. (That may form a great deal of the story's plotline.) Even in the best case, these characters will rarely be able to share a civil conversation. Either way, it's very unlikely that these two characters will ever be friends. Except that, in some stories, they were friends at one point, but some kind of rift came between them and split them apart. Common causes of the rift are a romantic entanglement in which one ended up with the other's boyfriend or the simple fact that the Alpha Bitch became popular and the Cool Loser didn't. In stories of this type, don't be surprised if the Alpha Bitch and the Cool Loser eventually start on the path to being friends again. At the very least, the Cool Loser may express the sentiment that popularity has changed her friend and that she wishes things could be the way they were before. Subtrope of We Used to Be Friends.

I just watched the game, as I worked all freaking day.
Halak was looking good until the 2nd goal he let in. The first goal he had no chance on, as it was deflected on the side of him. The 2nd goal looked like it skipped off the ice and through his 5 hole, but it was very weak and should have been stopped. Czech's took over the game after that. The Slovak's do not have the fire power the Czech's do, so the weak goal that tied it 2-2 really hurt. Overall I still think he played an ok game, as he made a great save on Hudler point blank, and he had impressive numbers up until this game, as he only let in 2 goals in 3 games against Russia, Sweden and Austria, although he got peppered against the USA team.
Linhart on the other hand was not very impressive again. I watched him make some questionable moves that lead to 3 goals, but he does have good size and made a couple of decent hits. Didn't see much else, but I tried to focus on Halak tonight. I have two of Linhart's games on tape, and I'll most likely tape the Czech game tomorrow.

If unique page visits were the bricks that build skyscrapers, which website do you think would have the tallest building? With online bill paying, shopping, and communication it's possible to never leave home and still have everything you need to survive, so it is almost like the internet has become a virtual city. Korean media artist Sang Un Jeon brings this idea to life in an incredible visualization using internet traffic data and a 3d printer. Since a keyboard is like the vehicle that takes us to this virtual city, he used each letter key to represent the biggest sites on the world wide web. If you look at your keyboard and the image above you can probably figure out that the tallest tower on the G key represents Google and the F to the left of it stands for Facebook. [Read more…]

Little Correlation Between Gaming & Gun Violence?
With the recent tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School, people in their shock are inevitably asking: "why?" Why did such a horrible event happen? What triggered a young boy to cause such harm to other children? Invariably the fingers begin to point towards, among other things: access to guns, mental illness, family troubles, isolation and, inevitably, playing violent video games. This last potential culprit has become a standard for those looking to find answers on why these awful events continue to happen, mainly in the US. The Washington Post recently produced a series of graphics, however, that cast serious doubt on the connection between playing video games and gun murders. [Read more…]

One Hot Year: Visualizing US Fires in 2012
By just about any standard, 2012 was a massive year for U.S. wildfires. According to data from both the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) and NASA, over 9.1 million acres burned this year… and that was only tracking until November 30th. That figure places 2012 as the 3rd most wildfire filled year since 1960, and with the total number of fires being 55,505 – a relatively low number – the year holds the current record for the largest average fire size.

A Campaign Map, Morphed By Money
Every 4 years, as Americans rush to the polls and cast their vote for a new president, we're familiar with seeing the typical U.S. maps of red and blue denoting how states are favoring each candidate. But what information does this really give us? With the electoral college having only a portion of electors allotted to each state (based on that states population) the actual voting power of a state has little to do with its geographical size. How can we look at this differently and get a more informed look at what's going on? [Read more…]

Bio and Links
I am an avid researcher. One of my favorite research projects has been the Highnote name out of Navarro County, TX (who was a lawman killed in OK). I have also researched all the women who have served as sheriff in Oklahoma - so fascinating.
Then there is the Casner/Carsner/Carsoner name out of KY, MO, IA, KS, TX, AZ, NM, CA, WA, OR, ID - which is one of my family lines with real outlaws and successful gold rush people in CA.
Another favorite has been "Rose of the Cimarron", the story of Rose Ella Dunn during the late 1890s in OK TY.
Last but not least is Ruby Darby known as "Queen of the Oil Fields" in Oklahoma during her heyday as a blues singer/vaudeville performer 1915 - 1922.
I do love photographing the older cemeteries here in Oklahoma occasionally finding a person whose history is a must to research.
** Please when you take my photographs which I have uploaded to Find-a-Grave and place them on other websites, all I ask is that you give appropriate credit to me on the other website. An exception to this is for those photos in Allegheny County, PA. I am one of several people assisting a gentleman upload his thousands of photos.

Yes, that's right. I wish all of you ladies and gents in your 20s realize it to its fullest:
if we, in our 40s and up, we're standing against THE COLLECTIVIST AND CENTRAL PLANNING deception it's not so much for us, instead, it is SO MUCH MORE for our own kids.
Accessorily, it's maybe for you as well, for 10 or 20 years from now, when it'll be your turn to care a lot for your legacy.
We have NO EXCUSE any longer, for we do know better - we have been unearthing the truth that TPTB are so busy hiding from everybody and lying about:

Are you looking for something to do with the family during the holidays or an excuse to get out of the house by yourself? How does a nice afternoon hike in the winter woods followed by hot chocolate and roasted marshmallows sound? We are once again hosting our seasonal Marshmallow and Hot Chocolate Hikes.
The forest may seem quiet during the dormant season, but hikers find it is teeming with life. Footprints reveal many mammals and birds are still awake and active, and the exposed hills no longer camouflage the homes of our active winter residents. Perhaps you will see squirrels duck into the hollow of a tree or rabbits hop out of a hole in the thicket. Or maybe a red fox will pop out of a den. After the hike, we will retreat back to the pavilion to warm ourselves by the fire, drink hot chocolate and roast marshmallows. It is a fun afternoon for nature lovers of all ages. Two and under are free. Come join us! Registration appreciated.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - The 14 states that are running their own health insurance marketplaces are supposed to pay for themselves starting next year, but there could be trouble ahead.
The federal government covered startup costs until the exchanges could get off the ground.
But some may not be able to cover costs starting in 2016. Enrollments have been lower than expected, which means lower revenues.
Some states have said they might need more federal money, like Rhode Island.
Minnesota, Oregon and Washington have all pledged cost-cutting to stay out of trouble. And Washington state might increase its tax on insurance companies.
It's possible some of the states will be in better shape with big enrollment gains by March 31. That's when people have to sign up for insurance or face federal tax penalties.

Hello Dear Reader,
A huge extravagant blow out!
No matter how careful you are, every once in a while we all want to just eat out, or buy a take away or in this case, eat some thing extravagant for supper. This was a use it up and stuff your tummy type of supper.
I have often seen brioche buns being used with burgers by TV chefs, I bought some for DB and he gave them a go. I make my burgers with just ground beef, salt and pepper and an egg to bind. I form them into patties and cook them without oil in a smoking hot frying pan. I like to let them char slightly then turn. We had most of a pack of Halloumi cheese and half a jar or red pesto. So my indulgence was dropping by the supermarket for salad and Brioche buns.
The result was superb, I had mine with salad because I can't tolerate the after effects of gluten (chronic IBS, no need to say more) and yes my eyes were bigger than my belly and no I didn't eat all three burgers.
It's a bit indulgent and way over my usual budget.
Rolls 50p for 2
Salad - 89p bag
Beef for burgers - £1.25 (I bought 2 kilos for £5)
Halloumi - £1.60 a pack
Pesto Rosso - half a jar - 50p
That was last night's supper, for tonight, we had the second steak and kidney pudding I made and froze with savoy cabbage and carrots. Hopefully one cheapie supper will balance out the expensive one.
Nice though!
Over to you Dear Reader, when you want an extravagant blow out, what's your 'frugal' indulgence?
Until tomorrow,

Velma "Velveteen" Martinez is a toy-animating super hero created by Seanan McGuire, a.k.a. Mira Grant. Over the past six years, McGuire's "Velveteen vs." story cycle has been released gradually on LiveJournal, achieving a dedicated following thanks to the story's overall emotional complexity. As fantasy author Tanya Huff has written, "Velveteen is about a young woman who fights crime in a pair of rabbit ears in much the same way Buffy was about a girl who killed vampires. That being, not so much." [more inside]

"In this way, Mills achieves a genuine transgression: he admits defeat. Which is to say, he reveals himself as only creating new masculine fantasies in the same mode as his prior works – superseding Virago's feminine motives in favor of manly rage at spoiled ambitions – while at the same time savaging superheroes in a way that is not truly destructive, but merely substituting an arguably worse status quo for the genre's prior lies. As you say, Marshal Law is grim 'n gritty in the fashion of its day, but I would add that Mills's admission of inefficacy at promoting substantive change marks it as the only post-Watchmen work — and, by its murder mystery, its wartime background, its American critique, and its spoofing of extant superhero archetypes, it is very specifically post-Watchmen — that betrays some cognizance as to the ways in which Watchmen's legacy would be processed: more violence, more darkness, more ugliness atop a hardly-cracked genre foundation." -- Janean Patience and Joe McCulloch discuss Marshall Law; part 2, part 3, part 4.
