Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Kutcher and Heigl are unable to bring any warmth to what is at heart a bitter, cynical script. Just awful.
This should be and could be a really fun and entertaining, silly movie and it isn't.
Killers is a lifeless romantic action comedy that might as well have been concocted in a broken beaker, given the paucity of chemistry between the lead actors.
There is a potentially rich satirical situation there, as everyone in the couple's dull planned community turn out to be undercover killers. But whatever germ of an idea there is, it's quickly killed by witless writing and migraine-inducing direction.
