About this product

Product Information

In the aftermath of a job gone awry, an American hitman retreats to the Italian countryside, where he befriends a local priest and strikes up an unexpected romance while awaiting the details of his next assignment. Jack (George Clooney) is lucky to be alive after his Swedish assignment went sour, and he knows that it's only a matter of time before his luck runs out. Not eager to tempt fate again, Jack arrives in a small Italian town and takes a job assembling a weapon for the mysterious Mathilde (Thekla Reuten). During this uncharacteristically peaceful interlude, Jack befriends kindly clergyman Father Benedetto (Paolo Bonacelli), and connects with pretty local Clara (Violante Placido). But in the process of reaching out for a little human contact, Jack is making himself more vulnerable than ever.

ReviewsThe Guardian - It purrs evenly, like the engine of a luxury automobile, with a cool, sleek satisfaction at how stylish it is. That said, it is pretty stylish..., Daily Telegraph - Excuisitely shot, with every frame impeccably composed, The American is essentially a European art-house film., Chicago Sun-Times - Here is a gripping film with the focus of a Japanese drama, an impenetrable character to equal Alain Delon's in Le Samourai, by Jean-Pierre Melville.

    clooney tunes.

    a total waste of time and their effort. storyline was slow and difficult to follow. the actors were like planks and looked as if they could not be bothered. an arty type of film which might suit some people who appreciate long drawn out action and knowing looks. thank god they all get shot in the end.

    Hit man hides out in quiet Italian villages.

    Clooney plays a hit man, who has to get out of Sweden, & enters Rome, & then the Abruzzo region of Italy ,to cool off. AntonCorbijns deft direction uses the beautiful landscape,& villlages well, but dont expect too much action, as Clooney tries too stay alive,& get his head together.
