Hitman 2 (2025)

The first movie was one of my favs, and this was fun a sequel but it wasn’t that amazing
It was fun seeing the same characters and nice to have my oppa oppa girl so much this year
They had some comedy but not that good and it was kinda obv how things were going too much tho I did have to throw hints for mom cuz they weren’t twist vague just not too spelled out to understand



since the first one was him getting dragged back in the spy world cuz of his manhwa, it made sense this time they tried to use it against him
and it was a smart move, to have the bad guy repeat the story but still be a step ahead, but there were elements, like Jeon Hae In flirting with both men was obv sus but the events weren't too clear as well until they were revealed so I wish they had better flow
maybe for a more episodic vibe, to have constant villains come and go, like totally spies, would fit more than to have a linear movie

I don't remember all of the original Hitman but this sequel gives me the exact vibe and satisfaction at the end. This is the kind of movie that you know isn’t great, but you still want to see it. The highlight is the cinematography. The webtoon animated parts of the movie are the best and there is also one very short flashback that was filmed masterfully and it is hard to believe that it is from the same movie. The action was also pretty fun, but so unrealistic so i liked the animated action more than the one acted live. Most of the movie is comedy which is purposefully put in contrast to the serious theme of the movie so the actors try their best to be funny and, unfortunately forget to be credible. I can't believe they used "where is the bathroom" gag 3 times.

The premise of the movie is the connection between the webtoon and the real life, and I must admit that the producer managed to put a new twist to it and make it engaging. So in short, if you liked the original Hitman (2020) you will like this one.

PS. Is there a real webtoon based on this movie? If yes i would like to read it. I am currently reading gangster webtoon "무진".
