Well, being an old-time fan of the Hitman computer games (over various consoles) - I was disappointed that they decided to make a film of the game (http://uk.imdb.com/title/tt0465494/). The standard thing which happens in a game-2-film conversion is that it turns out poop.
I'm happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised by the output of this one - it's not half bad considering what it could have turned out like. Starring Timothy Olyphant (http://uk.imdb.com/name/nm0648249/) (formerly of the film 'Go' and the bad dude in Diehard 4.0), it follows the story of 'Agent47' - a hitman who's been double-crossed by the organisation.
Worth a look i'd say, but not one to rush out to the cinema for. i'd say... a reasonable 7 / 10.
