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.

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.

A typical American chill-out film with a good portion of clichés, which they tried to wrap in a new packaging. Add an annoying Katherine Heigl and a bunch of “hitmen” who really got on my nerves towards the end, and you have Killers. Fortunately, I wasn't expecting much from the film, so I'm not disappointed. One big plus for me was the perpetually pissed Catherine O'Hara.

Robert Luketic simply cannot be relied on. He can occasionally produce a nice genre film, but sometimes he stumbles and suddenly comes up with Killers who pretty much only succeed in killing Katherine Heigl's film career and sidelining her into struggling B-movies. Ashton Kutcher's attempts at spy action feel forced, the chemistry between the main duo doesn't work either in terms of appearance or dialogue, and the humor was abandoned already in the first scene in Nice. This vanity project, considering the otherwise good actors and screenwriters, can only be seen as a shameful mistake.

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.
