There’s something intriguing about good assassin films. These stories have been used as fodder for buddy comedies ("The Hitman’s Bodyguard"), romantic comedies ("Grosse Pointe Blank"), coming of age stories ("Leon: The Professional"), revenge thrillers ("John Wick"), or just straight up dramatic nightmares ("Collateral"). Somehow, though, it doesn’t matter if the lead is the hunter or the prey, the way someone can seem so cool, calm, and collected while also deadly offers a strange titillation audiences just dig. Adding to the “killer” collection is director Michael Caton-Jones’s "Asher", which sees an aging hitman coming to terms with an existence with very little to show for his time on Earth. Channeling the same crazy-cool energy of past projects “The Jackal” and “Rob Roy”, Caton-Jones’s "Asher" is as much a contemplative look at being aged out of life as it is recognizing that sometimes we must break out of our ruts to get more.
