Kiss & Kill

A surprisingly decent mind breather. I don’t like Ashton Kutcher much, but Katherine Heigl is enough for both… Several scenes are a little cringe inducing (the beginning), but there are more that are good. I will have forgotten watching it in a couple of days, but right now I have a pretty positive impression. 5/10 (23.07.2010)

Na Luketica cannot be relied upon. Occasionally, they can produce a nice genre film, but sometimes they stumble and then suddenly come up with killers who killed Katherine Heigl's film career and sidelined her towards struggling B-movies. Ashton's attempts at a spy action feel forced, the chemistry between the main duo doesn't work in terms of both appearance and dialogue, and the humor was forgotten already in the first scene in Nice. This vanity, considering the otherwise good actors and screenwriters, must be seen as a shameful mistake. (28.09.2011)

Except for one hilarious scene where Katherine roughly walks with a gun up her skirt, this movie was pretty boring. Until now, I had no idea Ashton Kutcher could not entertain me. Maybe it was the bad script, maybe it was Katherine, who, in my opinion, didn't look very pretty in the movie... either way, I expected more. NOT GREAT. (29.10.2010)

Maybe it was all right near the end, it had good pacing, there weren’t really any sparks between the main couple but there could have been. It's just that then you turn it off and think about it, you realize what incredibly nonsensical garbage you just watched. Basically, I don't even know what I'm giving the two stars for. I guess for the pacing and the fact that I didn't fall asleep. (24.04.2012)

Manchmal passiert es mir, dass ich einen Film dank seines Soundtracks entdecke. Ein Beispiel dafür ist Kiss & Kill, den ich mir dank der schwungvollen Musik eines meiner Lieblingskomponisten der Gegenwart, Rolfe Kent, angeschaut habe. Und ich bin froh darüber, dass es so war. Besonders im Vergleich zu dem vermasselten Streifen Knight and Day ist Kiss & Kill ein frischer, humorvoller und eigentlich auch origineller Film mit einer entspannten Stimmung. Ashton Kutcher fand ich ziemlich sympathisch (wie kann es nur sein??). Er und Katherine Heigl sind ein interessantes Paar. Das Beste, was die Besetzung zu bieten hat, ist aber der ausgezeichnete Papa Tom Selleck. Geben Sie dem Film eine Chance. Nach dreißig Minuten, in denen mehr oder weniger nur geredet wird, geht es richtig los. Ich denke, dass Ihnen Kiss & Kill gefallen wird. Von der Autoverfolgungsjagd über die Reaktivierung der Agenten aller Art bis hin zum witzigen Finale. Solide dreieinhalb Sterne runde ich auf – Tom und Cameron zum Trotz, denen alles gefehlt hat, was es hier gibt. (08.11.2010)

Killers managed to be quite entertaining for a while. Unfortunately, the film didn't take just a while. The rest of it didn't really have much to offer, so what followed were typical romantic clichés and a very moronic second half. It convinced me that the screenwriters get along really well with the director, but they can't ask the same of me. (26.10.2020)

After a long time, I looked at something on TV again and managed to come across the movie "Assassins". I must say that the word "come across" is quite fitting. It's that kind of action comedy that tries to be incredibly action-packed, then it wants to be funny, but after a mediocre start, it's just a stupid mess about how a naughty boy wanted to improve himself, and they started messing with him. But in the end, he could still improve because he has a wife who loves him and whom he loves, plus a father-in-law who doesn't end up killing him. Katherine Heigl showed here that she can't act, and we've known that about Ashton for a long time. She presents her exhibitionist body here, which I, as a heterosexual man, don't appreciate much. Katherine Heigl doesn't show almost anything again, which we have already gotten used to. This girl, who is pretty, needs a good partner for the movie to be worth something. She had one in Gerard Butler (the film "The Ugly Truth" with the same director), but Ashton Kutcher is definitely not a good choice. The movie is dying because it wants to be very complicated, suspenseful, but in the end, it's just silly.
