Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/4 --
Wild Target is the sort of madcap comedy that breaks a sweat trying to generate a steady stream of laughs, but ... the film only works in fits and starts.

"Wild Target" has fast, quippy dialogue and exactly the right actors to drive it home.

When the various elements all fizzle, all we're left with is some likable actors trying their best to save a fading film.

A few tart, amusing lines echo the fabled Kind Hearts and Coronets, yet this British movie based on a French farce falls into morbid silliness.

The film is directed with a surprising lack of comic spark by Jonathan Lynn.

Practically a text book in how ugly things can get when you don't have the right, light touch for this sort of thing.

Product Description:
A gorgeous con artist sells a fake painting to a powerful gangster and discovers that crime doesn't pay when her unsatisfied customer hires Europe's top assassin to take her out. But the moment Victor (Bill Nighy) gets Rose (Emily Blunt) in his crosshairs, he hesitates. The situation grows tense when Victor vows to protect the sprightly scammer rather than rubbing her out, and finds himself the unwitting mentor to a young protégée. Before long, all three are on the run from Europe's second-best assassin.
