After premiering on the festival circuit in 2023 at Venice, TIFF, and NYFF, Richard Linklater’s Hit Man has made its way to a limited theatrical release and Netflix drop as of June 7. Directed by Richard Linklater and written by Linklater and Glen Powell, the film follows a professor moonlighting as a hit man of sorts for his city police department, who descends into dangerous, dubious territory when he finds himself attracted to a woman who enlists his services. Loosely based on a true story, the film stars Glen Powell, Adria Arjona, and Austin Amelio. Chapter Timestamps:0:00:00 Introduction0:25:11 Initial Thoughts0:37:48 Spoiler Review1:30:40 Oscars Assessment1:43:15 Final RatingsFollow our guest online:Will Bjarnar on Twitter, LetterboxdFollow our team online:Danny Jarabek Website, Letterboxd, Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, and LinktreeTate Fowler on Letterboxd and InstagramBryan Sudfield on Letterboxd, Instagram, Twitter, and Film FragmentsEvan Miller on Letterboxd, Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok Films mentioned:Letterboxd listResources:Bryan Sudfield’s review of HIT MANYogaSimpatico.com puts quality, therapeutically-inspired yoga, and wellness class at your fingertips!
