Killing Gunther | Blu-ray (Lionsgate)
After decades of muscle-bound mayhem, Arnold Schwarzenegger still continues to pump out the goods in a consistent manner. Although he may not be the box office sensation he once was in the 80s and 90s, he’s still giving the fans what they desire most: Action.
After a couple of serious outings (Aftermath, Maggie) – and fresh off his recent announcement to reunite with James Cameron for a future Terminator movie – Schwarzenegger gets back to blowin’ stuff up in Killing Gunther, an action/comedy that Lionsgate is releasing to Blu-ray & DVD on December 26, 2017.
Killing Gunther tells the story of Gunther (Schwarzenegger), the world’s greatest hitman. There are plenty of reasons to want to kill him: he’s arrogant, he’s a show-off, and he steals jobs. The assassin community is tired of it. Determined to retire Gunther for good, a group of eccentric killers from across the globe come together to set the perfect trap. But their master plan quickly turns into a series of embarrassing fails as Gunther always appears one step ahead.
Killing Gunther marks the directorial debut of Taran Killam (writer/producer of Brother Nature). The film also stars Cobie Smulders, Hannah Simone, Allison Tolman, Steve Bacic, Aaron Yoo, Bobby Moynihan, Peter Kelamis and the director himself.
Killing Gunther definitely isn’t the typical, straight action film you’d expect from Schwarzenegger, but it’s proof that he shows no signs of slowing down.
