Wild Target sees Victor Maynard, a professional hitman (Nighy) fall for Rose, the woman he is supposed to be eradicating (Blunt). Maynard abandons his mission to kill Rose and takes on the role of her protector, picking up a wayward young man on the way (Grint).

A fun-filled British comedy action movie, full of familiar faces. Exceptional acting from Nighy, Blunt and Grint as they act out an unlikely trio struggling to save themselves from those trying to kill them. A romance is subtly kindled between Nighy and Blunt, with Grint looking for a family to look after him.

A thoroughly good film, with fantastic acting and a brilliant script. See this film. 4/5

Buy, rent or skip? Difficult, as it's similar to Son of Rambow - you want to buy it, but it's not a film you'll watch all that often. Buy, to have in the collection.
DVD or Blu-ray? Dvd.
