Wild Target

Wild Target (2010) is a British crime comedy from director Jonathan Lynn, and you can watch online on iFILM. Victor Maynard is a fastidious, solitary assassin born into a family of killers, a man whose deepest worry is letting down his fearsome mother.

His latest job is to take out Rose, a quick-witted con artist played by Emily Blunt who has fleeced a dangerous client. Instead of pulling the trigger, Victor, played by Bill Nighy, lets her live. Everything unravels from there. A drifting young man named Tony, played by Rupert Grint, latches on and mistakes Victor for a private detective, while the cheated client sends a fresh hitman after them all. Suddenly the cold professional has no idea what he's doing.

The pleasure here is the cast. Nighy plays the prim killer with a perfectly straight face, Blunt spins pure chaos, and Rupert Everett and Martin Freeman bring the dry British bite. A light, charming caper for an undemanding evening. Stream Wild Target (2010) online on iFILM.
