Kiss kiss (bang bang)

Threat advisory: Guarded - General risk of entertaining activities

Movie propaganda

Even a hit-man needs a life.

Felix (Stellan Skarsgård) is no longer the hit-man he once was and the club he belongs to (a place where assassins hang out when they're not killing people) seems full of new faces getting all the jobs. It's time to retire.

To add to his problems his girlfriend is pregnant and Felix lands his worst job yet - to look after Bubba (Chris Penn), a childlike 33-year-old, and he doesn't even like kids. If they are to survive Bubba needs to grow up fast. As Felix and Bubba form a friendship which will change their lives forever, the assassins close in.

Theatrical report

Kiss kiss (bang bang) is a pretentious film that tries hard to have street cred but ends up just trying hard.

After half an hour of silliness I was forced to turn the VCR off and watch AFL. I decline to justify this decision because Kiss kiss (bang bang) isn't worth the bytes.
