Confidently launched ride that ultimately nothing will stop. Neither the overly worn-out Emily Blunt, nor the fact that we have seen all the twists, tricks, and punchlines x times elsewhere. The noble assassin Bill Nighy and his pleasantly eccentric apprentice Rupert Grint easily managed to shoot down all the objections.

I'm not a fan of films France has been involved in, but I'm quite happy with this one. The delightful Emily Blunt is even more delightful after this role. She delivers every word and movement with such lovely ease and insight. I must also praise her costumes. I was also pleased with the casting of Rupert Grint, who I haven't seen outside of Harry Potter. Lots of fun scenes and a great deal of originality finally made me give it a (not quite pure) 4 stars. A nice film.

It's an exuberant romp with an attempt at English dryness, but the result is a rather odd mix of comedy styles, because in many ways Wild Target is a far cry from its spicier and drier rivals. It doesn't have a well-defined style or cinematic language. Blunt is a revelation and Nighy's killer is downright delightful. However, the action is lacklustre (a shoestring budget) and the comedy scenes are only occasionally funny.

A solidly made film laced with typically British humour with a touch of irony and levity that benefits particularly from the premise and a likeable cast. The central trio couldn't be more disparate: a professional killer, a con artist and a random guy, yet somehow they manage to be on the run from assassins. The film has plenty of genuinely humorous scenes, and there's no shortage of action and a dash of romance – just the kind of blend of genres I really like. In short, it's a nice one-shot for a free afternoon, which will entertain and relax you.

I have a soft spot for Bill Nighy's quirky acting and for British comedy as such. Emily Blunt was the film’s eye-candy (in a damn interesting way), I laughed with both Ruperts and Martin Freeman lit everything up with his deranged smile. A satisfying experience.
