Glen Powell plays mild-mannered college professor Gary Johnson, a guy who earns extra money by posing as a hit man for the New Orleans Police Department: He meets with ne’er-do-wells hoping to enlist his services; when they come clean with their intent, the cops move in with the handcuffs. Gary loves this side hustle, happily donning any disguise or persona necessary to get the job done. Then he falls for Maddy (Adria Arjona), an unhappily married woman who approaches him about offing her husband. He dissuades her, and they fall in love—but that’s only the beginning of their problems. Richard Linklater directs this foxy caper with buoyant good humor. And Powell, sexy and mischievous, makes a great, casual matinee idol.–Time Magazine

“A smartly written, sublimely comedic, and sexy human-scale relationship story with a touch of just enough suspense and hints of criminality to prove that its title is not a complete misnomer.”–Houston Chronicle 

“See it in a theater if you can. The big screen is the best place to witness the sizzling charisma between Powell and Arjona…“Hit Man” is one of the year’s best movies.”–Boston Globe
