My only issue is that I wish it was funnier. Sure, it's not un-funny. It's an enjoyable half hour. But I wanted so much more. The jokes are often a bit predictable and the material doesn't live up to the actors delivering it.

Hitmen was slapstick, but it was also twisted, dark and merciless and they certainly weren't too cuddly to kill.

While it's not essential viewing, it does pass the time nicely enough. Which is not to be sniffed at. At all.
