Re: Hitman
That movie was good, and could have been great, if not for that horrible lead Timothy Oliphant. He was too stiff to play a tobacco store Indian.

If you've ever seen him in Deadwood, you know he's capable of quite a wide range of acting ability/expression (though typically a simmering rage in his Bullock persona). I'm fairly certain that 'stiffness' to which you refer was simply his (or the director's/writer's/producer's?) interpretation of the character. He was also pretty good in the last Die Hard movie. Anyway, I don't know; I'm just saying ...

I refused to watch this movie just because of the lead actor, like FC said. It's that guy from Go! and The Girl Next Door. Horrible casting. He's a prime time d-bag.
