About Hitman In The City
A professional hitman who, despite his "deadly" profession, finds himself in increasingly absurd and mundane situations. Unlike the cool, calculated assassins of Hollywood, Neo’s character is a reflection of the "everyman" -- struggling with ethics, bad luck, and the bureaucratic frustrations of life in Singapore.
Directed by Jack Neo, Hitman In The City leans on a strong ensemble — Jack Neo, Patricia Mok, Mark Lee — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1998.
