- Quotes
Mrs. Kornfeldt: Excuse me!
Stewardess: Bonjour!
Mrs. Kornfeldt: Three chardonnays, please.
Mr. Kornfeldt: No, nothing for me. I always remain alert in flight.
Jen Kornfeldt: Me neither, thank you.
Mrs. Kornfeldt: Just the three then, thank you.
This is the first movie of Katherine Heigl that I have seen. I know she is in TV's "Gray's Anatomy", but I do not watch that as well. I liked her very much as the geeky beauty Jen in "Killers". She is sexy, funny and bubbly. Ashton Kutcher could never really escape the dumb persona he has built in "That 80s Show" or in "Punk'd." He does try his best here to play an action hero, and I think he passes muster. I think the two of them do have some sort of goof-ball chemistry because of their likable personalities.
The execution of the script is OK. I sort of liked the outlandish plot points and the over-the top comedic violence. I am surprised to see a lot of harsh reviews here. Hey, I am sure you do not watch a film like "Killers" expecting a serious screenplay and award-winning acting. This film is lightweight, silly and adrenaline-driven for the most part, and I think it delivered well on its shallow objectives.
