Hitman: Original Vs Remake - Bald, Beautiful & Rebooted

One barcode. Endless body count. And two attempts to bring Agent 47 to the big screen.In this episode of Mart and Trev’s The Deja Review, we step into the world of assassinations and silent kills to compare Hitman, starring Timothy Olyphant as the deadly Agent 47, with the reboot Hitman: Agent 47, starring Rupert Friend.Based on the legendary video game series, both films attempt to capture the cold precision, stealth action, and globe-trotting assassin missions that made Agent 47 one of gaming’s most iconic characters. The 2007 version leaned into gritty action-thriller territory, while the 2015 reboot pushed the franchise further into high-tech sci-fi action.Mart and Trev break down the action scenes, the assassinations, the faithfulness to the games, and the biggest differences between the films, asking whether either adaptation truly captures what makes Hitman work… or if Agent 47 deserves another contract.Does the 2007 original complete the mission…or does the 2015 reboot execute the concept better?Targets acquired. Debate initiated.Two long time friends, one podcast.This is The Deja Review.Enjoy the episode and remember to like, follow and tell your friends.As always a massive thank you to Little Foil Fish for our theme tune - ⁠ ⁨@LittleFoilFish⁩ ⁠Mart & TrevSubscribe to the Podcast - ⁠ ⁨@TheDejaReview⁩ 00:00 Introduction and Welcome to Deja Review01:20 Overview of Hitman (2007)10:33 Character Analysis and Comparisons17:23 Plot Complexity and Storytelling Issues20:07 Transition to Hitman: Agent 47 (2015)21:36 Character Portrayal in the Remake25:29 Visuals and Audio in Agent 4727:25 Visual Storytelling: The Impact of Colour and Tone29:46 Character Focus: Shifting Perspectives in Hitman Films31:44 Action vs. Mystery: The Essence of Agent 4733:40 Style and Substance: Balancing Aesthetics with Story35:55 Character Comparisons: Timothy Oliphant vs. Rupert Friend37:47 Film Remakes: Analysing Hitman and Its Sequel39:03 5 to 1: Timothy Olyphant#hitman #agent47 #HitmanAgent47 #VideoGameMovies #actionmovies #movieremakes #gamingmovies #thedejareview #martandtrev #originalvsremake
