ヒットマン
ニューオーリンズで2匹の猫と静かに暮らすゲイリー・ジョンソン（グレン・パウエル）は、大学で心理学と哲学を教える傍ら、地元警察に技術スタッフとして協力していた。ある日、おとり捜査で殺し屋役となるはずの警官が職務停止となり、ゲイリーが急遽代わりを務めることに。これをきっかけに、殺人の依頼者を捕まえるためにさまざまな姿や人格に変身する才能を発揮し、有罪判決を勝ち取るための証拠を引き出し、次々と逮捕へ導いていく。
ところが、支配的な夫との生活に追い詰められた女性・マディソン（アドリア・アルホナ）が、夫の殺害を依頼してきたことで、ゲイリーはモラルに反する領域に足を踏み入れてしまう。 セクシーな殺し屋ロンに扮して彼女に接触。事情を聞くうちに、逮捕するはずの相手に対し「この金で家を出て新しい人生を手に入れろ」と見逃してしまう……！恋に落ちてしまったふたりは、やがてリスクの連鎖を引き起こしていくことに――。

Hit Man is not what I expected, in the best way possible. It's easy to think that it will similar to Netflix original movies, a generic action thriller starring an attractive lead male star. However, it's actually a film festival darling by Richard Linklater that got purchased by Netflix and got resigned to a straight-to-streaming release. Instead, it's this sort of screwball comedy-romance of things spiraling out of control. The quirky humor is pretty great (love the dedication at the end), and Adria Arjona and Glen Powell are charismatic, sexy, and have tons of chemistry. Their interactions carry the movie. I also loved all of the different disguises that are featured throughout the movie. In some ways, this is the movie I wanted Fall Guy to be, where the leads actually have chemistry, there is real sexual tension, and the humor lands. The ending felt a bit anticlimactic, but I enjoyed the rest to overlook it. Don't go into it expecting action and you will be rewarded.
