In order to promote his image a professional hitman named "Blake" (Taram Killam) announces that he will kill the world's top assassin by the name of "Gunther" (Arnold Schwarzenegger) and will videotape it for all to see. To that effect he hires several other eccentric assassins to assist him. What he doesn't tell them, however, is that the real reason he wants to kill Gunther is because he stole his girlfriend "Lisa" (Cobie Smulders) and he hopes that once Gunther is dead they can reconcile. The problem is that Gunther has gotten word of the plan to kill him and decides to go on the offensive instead. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that I didn't find much humor in this comedy and as a result I just wasn't that impressed with this film. Additionally, I thought that there were way too many characters which also tended to water down the humor as well. In any case, while this film might appeal to some I found it rather tedious and have rated it accordingly. Below average.
