Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
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.

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.

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