A gothic/”alternative” metal band, who I know from their days of opening for The Gathering.

They were really great, but like their peers they slid downhill. Andrea Ferro ruins pretty much every song he’s in, and I’ve always wished him completely removed from the band.

I’m not sure how to describe this movie. It’s .. it doesn’t have the sort of consistency that makes it stick in memory enough to try.

It both feels like it has a plot line and that it’s all over the place. Overall it neither crafts a “feeling” nor has memorable characters. It was watchable enough to get through it all without really cringing, but it’s definitely not re-watchable and I wouldn’t recommend it even as bubblegum viewing. It’s successor, Hitman – Agent 47 (2015)[doesn’t exist], is way better.

A super-soldier program falls apart when its author goes rogue, but when its heirs move to re-capture him, not only does one of his creations turn against them but so does his greatest creation, his daughter.

What was, in so many respects, an original piece in an original world, it has various inappropriate quips and so obviously draws from other sources that it wears thin for a fan of them. Definitely recommended, but I’ll leave it up to the viewer to decide on if they’d re-watch it. I reference several other sources which ought to be watched at some point, and I think their viewing would reveal just how thin this movie is. Good, but thin.

A programming language of some note.

I had some small interest in this language, primarily because it’s used for World of Warcraft addon programming and general scripting , but I ended up losing interest in it and in programming in general.
