My only problem with this movie...


What sense would it make to employ a hitman who kills with an axe? In the scene where the axe man burst into the kitchen, there was so much ruckus. Mind you he was not counting on having one of his fellow hitmen there to also take down. But it just seems so illogical to want to take someone out that way, no matter how hated they may have been by whomever. You would think that a hit would always try to be very stealthy and brilliantly thought out, as to divert any wayward suspicions. Everyone of the other hitters in this film had that inclination it seemed. The poisoner could easily plant his poison, then disappear. The accident man himself, made it look like the deaths were accidental or suicides. The two vets also worked under creating misleading guises. The hitlady (lol), I didn't understand her methods overly well.

I'd never heard of this film until just now, and haven't seen it, but my guess is the axe guy is hired for special cases when you want your victim to die a horrible, painful death in abject terror. Hard to beat being chased around by an axe-wielding maniac then chopped to pieces.

I watched this movie today. The narrating main character said they hire the axe guy when they want to "make an example" of the hit victim.
