Well, after "Léon" and "Grosse Point Blank", hit-man movies are hot. Unlike the previous mentioned, this one is a pure comedy that is first successful by its cast: mixing some experts in comedy (Perry, Peet) with others who play against nature: Rosanna is cute as a dangerous desperate housewife and Willis plays a hit-man "à la" Brando in the "Godfather": no action, just a presence with his stare and words. The plot is imaginative with a lot of surprises and funny moments. Another good point is having Montréal as location because it's a refreshing change and as french is spoken there, the cast tries it as well. All this is done with an unknown director (at last for me) so this is finally a very good surprise!
