Synopsis

When an American hit man discovers that a contract has been taken out on his own head, he decides to lie low in the Italian countryside. Here he befriends the local priest and develops a relationship with a prostitute named Clara, all the while concealing his true identity. After receiving an assignment to build a high-spec weapon for a Belgian lady, he vows to his contact that this job will be his last. However, he soon discovers that he won’t be allowed to walk away quite so easily, as there’s still a price on his life.

    I'd love to write something clever & witty about The American, but I'm still struggling to understand why it was even made in the first place!

    stylish, taut, elegant - and yes the cops don't feature much in Italy they have more sense

    Awful, yawing, drudgery of a movie. George goes 'European' and gets it all wrong - predictable from beginning to end, the pondering visuals of George 'thinking' and wandering endlessly through the Italian village as well as the 'make it yourself' gun lessons are simply painful. Apparently the cops don't feature much in the Italian country side.......awful and self-indulgent movie making
