Hitman was a video game about Agent 47. Agent 47 is a genetically engineered, assassin. He is deathly, ruthless and is known for his precise targets. In 2007, a film was made based on this video game. It featured Timothy Olyphant as Agent 47 on a mission to uncover the conspiracy and corruption caused by a Russian politician. It is a very well-planned adaptation of a classic video game and manages to attach to it a certain emotional depth that keeps the audience hooked.
