I really wanna watch some new assassin movies because I'm in love with genre, what would you guys recommend? Here's a list of a few that I've seen... The Mechanic Elektra Most James Bond The Bourne Trilogy (haven't seen The Bourne Legacy yet) Lucky Number Slevin Red War/Rogue Assassin Transporter 1, 2 & 3 Taken Mission: Impossible (All 4) xXx (1 and 2 - can't wait for the return of xander cage to come out) Hitman Wanted Collateral Kill Bill Vol. 1 + 2 Ninja Assassin Mr. and Mrs. Smith The Expendables The Saint Swordfish Ghost Dog (boredom galore) No Country For Old men (double boredom galore) Killer Elite Appreciate it
I've been watching a ton of Asian films the last year and I know there's probably at least 5 that I just can't remember the names of. I'm not sure how fond you are of reading subtitles, but if I think of the names I'll post them here.
Fuck yes. I Saw the Devil is also pretty amazing and along the same lines as Old Boy. Koreans take their revenge seriously.
Neither would I, but I wouldn't consider the 007 or Transporter franchises assassin films, either. I think he's just looking for a certain type of badass action movie--one guy (or gal) killing and/or beating the shit out of lots of people.
