"Hitman’s Hero is a low‑budget Australian crime film that blends dark humor with a gritty character study. It follows Paul, a man who witnessed a murder as a child and grows up to lead a double life as a suburban family man and part‑time assassin. The film leans into its offbeat tone—mixing crime, comedy, and a touch of melancholy—as Paul’s attempt to emulate the hitman he once admired spirals into complications."
"A movie I never heard of i enjoyed grab it on sale worth the watch"
"good movie. The actor now does a podcast called the wasp files."
"Hitman’s Hero (also known as Sensitive New Age Killer) is a wonderfully offbeat action-comedy that balances deadpan humor with stylish crime thrills. Its quirky tone and confident performances give the film a distinctive personality that sets it apart from typical hitman fare. It’s a clever, cult-friendly ride that embraces its oddball charm and delivers plenty of memorable moments."
"Also called Sensitive New Age Killer, this Australian romp is another fine example of their dark comedy/action films. Another semi budget film from underrated Mark Savage."
"Unexpectedly solid thriller. Great slipcover and transfer."
"This romp is quite the package! Really enjoyed it, totally worth picking up on sale or regularly priced!"
"An entertaining crime romp flick with some memorable kills. Centers around a character who grows up admiring a hitman and wants to become one, but it's more a lover than a killer. Comes with a handful of extras and pretty cool packaging artwork."
"Dark comedy/thriller movie with some gritty scenes. Never heard of it before but took the chance and enjoyed it. It knows its place and doesn’t venture out into parts unknown."
"A blind buy that turned out great, I really like this movie a whole lot. Recommended!"
