Some of the characters are a little over-the-top, and the story starts to take on some comical aspects of an episode of “The Venture Brothers”. Blake Dexter, a stereotypical rich Texan with thick accent and cowboy hat is hard enough to swallow, and the introduction of a mad scientist who blows up pigs with landmines and a league of “hot nun assassins” is just a little much to continue taking the story seriously.
The voice acting is brilliant, even if some of the characters are a little over-blown. David Bateson returns as the voice of Agent 47 (although his reprisal required much fan outcry to seal this position), and Keith Carradine voices the main antagonist, Blake Dexter. Marsha Tomason takes over the character of Diana Burnwood from Vivienne McKee, and she does such a good job that you wouldn’t know unless you read the credits. Other well-known actors that lend a hand to the latest Hitman series are Powers Booth as the head of the ICA, Traci Lords as Layla Stockton, Steven Bauer as Birdie, and Vivica Fox as the head of the Nun Assassins.
The soundtrack is again top notch, but instead of Jesper Kyd (the composer for Hitman: Blood Money) the music is composed by Thomas Bartschi and Peter Kyed.

Hitman is one of my favorite movie and game and the main character on hitman was really cool and he has an ability to be a good assassin or sniper.
