Movies that feel likeHitman (2007)

A genetically engineered assassin with deadly aim, known only as "Agent 47" eliminates strategic targets for a top-secret organization. But when he's double-crossed, the hunter becomes the prey as 47 finds himself in a life-or-death game of international intrigue.

If you loved Hitman, the closest films we have are No Escape (2015), Haywire (2011) and Body of Lies (2008). All three share Hitman's kinetic and tense feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is Don (2006).
