Bill Nighy was mildly amusing in the spy caper "Turks & Caicos". Here, his mamma fixated character is pretty pathetic, the Emily Blunt character is beneath contempt and the combination of the two gives a severe stomach ache.

Very funny. Bill Nighy is great as usual. Lots of turnabouts and surprises

Delightful caper reminiscent of comedy/dramas of the 60's. Chase, girl meets guy, more chases, good guys and bad guys. Emily Blunt, Bill Nighy (and his mother Kathleen Atkens) and Rupert Grint together make an excellent team trying to…

PLEASINGLY GOOD ENTERTAINMENT !

I found it very hard to imagine Blunt and Nighy's characters together. Otherwise Nighy is great in his immaculate suits and Blunt's character's selfish immaturity makes you want to slap her- I guess that was the point. The violence is…

Emily Blunt is fabulous. Can't imagine Bill Nighy can handle comedy drama so well. British movie lovers should not miss. Excellently done overall.

Very well done. Emily Blunt is fabulous. Can't imagne Bill Nighey could handle comedy drama so well. British film lovers should not miss.

This is a remake of a French film called "Cible émouvante" (Moving Target). I suspect I would like that far more.

I got a few chuckles out of this British comedy. However, I find some of the superfluous killings, off-screen, of innocent people unnecessary. Still worth a look.

Not the best movie ever made, but definitely worth a watch. The acting was good and everyone had great chemistry. would recommend to anyone looking for a good laugh out loud mild action flick.

I watched 50 minutes of this debacle and shut it off. Over rated reviews. Found this on dashboard.

Again Nighy and Blunt make a good pair, and both fun to watch. Loved it.

A hilarious British Comedy...I was pleasantly surprised and thoroughly enjoyed. Those who are looking for good plot would not enjoy this movie as much.

Bill Nighy was good, as usual, although hampered a bit by the plot and the other acting.

Typical English comedy. Dry British humour with tongue in cheek, straight-faced delivery. Good cast acquits themselves. Thankfully the violence, for the most part, is implicit or off screen.

Rated 8/10.

Quite humorous! Not for people who like lot actions in fighting, shootings or gory scenes.

A quirky, funny, and oddly bizarre character study. Nighy's wonderfully understated as a professional assassin who's very good at his job, and yet spares a target. Emily Blunt is as always delightful as the thief and con artist who finds…

Started well, but became quite mediocre. A talented cast defeated by a plot that went sideways.

A bored assassin took a contract to terminate a free spirited thief but turned to become her protector under surreptitious deadly but comical circumstances, funny from start to finish.

Another example of Bill Nighy's great talent. Very enjoyable movie.

This is another outstanding vehicle for the understated comedic talent of Bill Nighy who shines through out in this “opposite-attract” romantic comedy (“ I have barely known you for an hour and already it would take me three days to list…

Good – Wild Target (2010) 98 min. I had a terrific time watching this British comedy unfold before me as character after character presented were more eccentric than the last. The best character other than the Emily Blunt’s is Bill Nighy’s…
