This is how game movies should be. Hitman deserves a perfect rating because it stays true to the universe created by the game, and it has all of the elements what on how a game movie should be. Time and time we see a game franchise being put in the big screen, but the essential question for every game movie is does it do justice. Sadly with the past attempts we see all we get is Action. Sure it's great we get to see our favorite game characters come to life a kick the ass of there rivals, but that's all we ever get no character development nor story which makes us think twice about watching a movie based on a game. Hitman finally destroys that stereotypical view of movie based games and sets a new bar for up coming movie based games. Hitman has the emlements of a good movie why you ask? Hitman gives us Action, Story and proper character development. Now what makes Hitman's story good? Hitman's story is good because it blends perfect for the game's universe also it is not out there in the sky, but grounded and believable you will not be boarded out by a very shallow story infarct the dept of the issues presented makes you excited for the next seen more and more. With this new standard set we can only expect game based movies to move up to that new bar. Now on how it does justice to the game's universe. First of all we must give it to the director and stunt department for such an accurate embodiment of Agent 47. Notice in the movie on the fighting style and compare it in the game as we can see the same smoothness of executing his attacks are present. Another thing to notice is his movement it is exactly on how he should move in terms of hiding and getting his target. A perfect seen where you will find this present is in the hotel where he hides behind a wall you can see that he crosses his pistols on his chest that exact way he does it in that game. And the best part of his embodiment is his emotional reactions. The anger seen in his face in one seen where he kills someone by strangling him to death is another detail perfected. Thus we see that it does justice to the game because of the accuracy and detail shown in this movie. These are the two main reasons on why Hitman is the perfect game based movie to hit the big screen.
A must see for movie critics and Game enthusiasts
