"Wild Target" bears all the hallmarks of [director Jonathan] Lynn's best films, despite being, even at a tidy 90 minutes, a bit too long.

When the various elements all fizzle, all we're left with is some likable actors trying their best to save a fading film.

"Wild Target" has fast, quippy dialogue and exactly the right actors to drive it home.

Two delightful stars nudge Wild Target into sleeper territory - but only by a few inches.

Practically a text book in how ugly things can get when you don't have the right, light touch for this sort of thing.

...mindless entertainment in a refined style.

A few tart, amusing lines echo the fabled Kind Hearts and Coronets, yet this British movie based on a French farce falls into morbid silliness.

There have been a lot of black comedies about assassins lately -- there have been a few just this year -- but Wild Target may be the first one to contain genuine laughs.

An eccentric little comic thriller filled with enough laughs that I was mostly willing to overlook the fact that it makes virtually no sense as a thriller.

It's never a good idea to cast Bill Nighy as a buttoned-down hit man.

The film has to fly by its wits -- and its witty lines -- and by the charm of its stars. This it does, just barely.
