200 IQ Assassin Stages Each Murder as an Unfortunate Accident

A group of professional hitmen creates intricate plans to make their murders look like accidents until the members of their team begin getting targeted as well.

You're smart enough to take three different means of transport to get home but yet you leave all your money in one place that's unguarded most of the time?

We're watching a movie that’s basically selling the fact that all deaths although looks accidental are in fact all strategically plans out and nothing is coincidental. To say at the end that his teammate fatty died accidentally, his female teammate died because of a misunderstanding and his own death was just an act of revenge by an upset husband who's wife died seems to throw the main point out of the water. From this team of killers, who survived and who reeks all the rewards at the end? -- The Uncle!!

My theory is Brain got killed at the end and never found out that the Uncle was indeed the mastermind behind everything. Coincidental Alzheimer, coincidentally dropping his cigarette and not picking it up, coincidentally forgetting to block the security camera, coincidental fall from the second floor AFTER calling Brain for help, coincidentally killing his teammate and coincidentally dropping of all the balls that started it all. How is it possible to have so many coincidents in a movie where nothing is a coincident? Brain's wife died in a car accident and coincidentally besides Brain, only the uncle believes it was a set up. Brain coincidentally got robbed but his wife’s watch which he values was coincidentally left behind from the robbery. This tells us that whoever did this, knows him and knows him well. And all these coincident just happens to revolve around the uncle. He’s actually the brain behind the brain. Using Brain to exterminate everyone while he sits back and relax and then killing Brain at the end. Too bad the audience only gets to watch the movie from Brain POV and so we don't get to see how the whole picture unfold. Brain got outsmarted and died without knowing why seems like the perfect ending.

Motive: The team looks down on the uncle and even threaten to throw him out of the group. After throwing a tantrum, he then starts his own group as the mastermind and in order for him to do that, he must get rid of the competition. His own team. Or he already had his team in place beforehand, hence dropping the cigarette and lying about it to start a fight with his teammates. New group members probably consisted of the random guy who bumps into Brain in the rain, the bus driver and the sketchy landlord. After coincidentally bumping into some random dude during the operation, Brian was instantly thrown into the street where he was faced with an incoming bus where he almost got hit. After getting hit by the bus instead, Fatty questioned if it was truly an accident before dying. Brain believes that this was no random bus accident and knows someone was going after his team. Uncle plays his cards well with the coincidental I have Alzheimer and can't remember anything and so Brain killed the woman after she picked up the payments and knowing the clients only Fatty should be aware of. Brain was lead to go after Chan and coincidentally the apartment underneath Chan's apartment just happened to be up for rent. The sketchy landlord pops up at critical times unannounced and talks to Chan seriously which pointed more fingers at Chan. Right in the middle of Brain executing the hit, the bus driver just happened to coincidentally wakes up at the right moment to give his statement and the uncle just coincidentally called to say he took to many pills resulting in his own fall, which in turn got Chan’s wife killed. Chan was save but this resulted in Brian getting stab at the end by Chan. No doubt Chan will either be jailed or kill off soon afterwards.

How else can we explain a group of assassins (Fatty, Woman, Brain) getting killed one by one in a short amount time and the only one who survived is surrounded by a series of coincidents? Accidents? I think not! We should know better than that. So in conclusion, it was an elaborate scheme executed by the uncle perfectly instead of a bunch of coincidental mishaps that just happened to happen.

This man gets Silent Assassin in every Hitman mission in every game - first try.

This man taught Death how to kill people in Final Destination.

[ericconnor]

damn, what a story. I thought "Uncle" was pretending and the mastermind.

[abhigyatchaitanya]

I love the concept. Being paranoid is an issue and this movie nicely depicted how worse can it get.

[ogutaooyugi]

We must all agree that this movie's directors and cast are still serving their life sentences

[ja]

A Hong Kong movie being recapped with actors I recognize. How strangely exciting! Great recap as usual!

[piyoweb]

This could honestly be the "Hitman" movie based on a group instead one dude. Their ideas are a lot more interesting than the 2 official Hitman movies.

[simonphoenix]

Brain is a really smart guy but somehow he couldn't even get the name Brian right.

[Blackmage]

This dude needs to become friends with Yor. Imagine the conversations they'd have with each other.

[blacklight]

The man that always meticulously planned hits dies after his plan backfired due to unforeseen events and is spontaneously stabbed by a random dude after accidentally killing his wife. Quite the ironic karma.

[QasimW]

For me, the essence of the film lies in the name of the characters.
The fact that characters don't have actual names in the film elaborates that the focus of the film isn't on the characters.
The main character's name "Brain" essentially sums up the plot that if we put our attention on something and our brain becomes obsessed with that thing then we start creating non-existent connections. The ancient knowledge of astrology can be cited in this context. The same thing happens in the film. Brain-the main character- gets obsessed with the idea that someone's behind the accidents and eventually connects everything with it.
Moreover, for me, the film successfully delivers the message and next time whenever my brain is gonna get paranoid, I'll take a step back and think whether it's actually the case or my brain is leading me towards it.

Anyone else glad the intro is back?
"Welcome back to movie recaps"

[charliechuckleberry]

It feels like the Uncle killed everyone, and now he can retire with no loose ends.

[twangerrrrrr]

That ws actually a good movie recap. The story was good. I guess Brain finished everything he had to do left in life at that point.

[SorrowAvenue]

You brought back the classic intro! Great work! That‘s what I‘m talking about!

[stealthkillz]

This movie is basically a game of Hitman played by the most articulate stealth player. Commiting accidental assassinations with full intention.

[EastBurningRed]

No way a forecast about a solar eclipse wasn’t in the news when it’s such a well predicted and interesting event.

[greefro]

I’m still confused as to why Chan stabbed Brain. He had no idea that the wife’s death was brains fault, in fact from his POV, brain is a weird quite neighbor who tried to warn Chan about the car that hit his wife.
