Hitman: Agent 47 in Movies ·

We’ve got a sequel coming to the action genre from back in 2008. This time, Rupert Friend takes on the role of a cold-blooded hitman. The whole story is inspired by the hit PC game Hitman, featuring the legendary killer Agent 47.

Forgive me, but those are either bad or just Solid. Today's American humor feels like it's at an elementary school level. I'm not praising British humor either. I'm not one of those people who claims British is better while spitting on American stuff. Both have their highs and lows. 30Rock has its moments, but in the end, it isn't anything special. Everything else mentioned is below average. Community was good.

When I watch the older sitcoms, they absolutely kill these new ones because the writing is better and the acting feels more natural.

The guy above lists Boardwalk Empire and then throws in Arrow, Constantine, and Prison Break as examples of quality series. Give me a break. Arrow and Constantine are comic book shows. I get that they'll be the most popular things today, but they aren't shows that can compete with the best films out there. Boardwalk can. Not the fifth season, though, but fine.

What’s wrong with Arrow and Constantine? You really think they aren't better than some modern movies? To be honest, they actually are.
Honestly, I think TV shows are outperforming movies these days—especially those recent big-budget films. Shows like Green Arrow, Marco Polo, Constantine, Boardwalk Empire, Prison Break, Vikings, or Game of Thrones are just more enjoyable to watch. They tend to have much better pacing and, more importantly, a tighter script. It’s easier to get lost in a great series than in a rushed movie.
Honestly, I’m all about the TV series. You get way more time to actually bond with the main characters when you have more episodes to work through.
