Killing Gunther

About This Movie

Killing Gunther is a unique blend of action and comedy that feels like a quirky mix of spy movies and buddy comedies. The pacing is erratic, because it tries to balance the chaos of the hitman world while keeping the humor front and center. The performances are a mix of over-the-top and surprisingly grounded, especially Taran Killam as the lead. There's something about the practical effects here that gives it a nice retro vibe. Plus, it’s interesting how it plays with the tropes of the assassin genre, with Gunther always seeming to be just out of reach. It's as if you're in on the joke but also left wondering how each encounter will unfold, creating this odd tension between comedy and action.

Interesting take on the hitman genre. · Practical effects add a nice touch. · Expect a mix of humor and action.
