Hunter's Prayer
This story tells about the dangerous and disturbing world of crime in the streets of Europe. That story began with a professional assassin named Lucas hired to kill a young woman called Ella. That plan began to take another turn when Lucas finds himself retreating from killing Ella, making him move in a twisted game of cat and mouse because of the implications of that plan. Lucas discovers that his life and Ela's life are in danger, and they must form an uneasy alliance to escape. Their only hope of survival throughout Europe is to reveal the murder of their family and bring these criminals to justice.

Marks must be given for how this is a character-driven project. But despite the attempt to make each person fully rounded, none of it feels fresh or engaging.

Like a Luc Besson film put through a deflavorizing machine to remove any element that could be distinctive, energetic, or fun.

The transparent goal of this frenetic cat-and-mouse thriller is to keep the action moving so viewers don't pause to contemplate the narrative incoherence behind it.

A routine but reasonably diverting B-movie about a conscience-stricken hit man and the girl he opts not to kill.
