The Plot…

William Bang is the best hitman in Morgan Cutter’s organization.  Bang is an efficient, heartless killer. He always gets the job done.  When a rival ambushes Bang, shooting him seven times in the chest, it appears Cutter’s number one man is a goner.

But an emergency heart transplant saves Bang.

Bang recovers.  He learns that the heart he was given came from a kind man who was newly married and expecting a child.  Bang develops a conscience.  Bang has, if you will, a change of heart.  Bang decides to give up his life of crime and become a better person.

This doesn’t sit well with Cutter.  If Bang won’t kill for him, then by gosh, he’ll have Bang killed.  Cutter orders everyone in his criminal organization to find and kill Bang.

Bang not only had a miraculous change of, ahem, heart in his attitude, but for a guy who just survived an emergency heart transplant, he’s physically ready as well.

Bring on the bad guys!

Thoughts (beware of spoilers)…

A heartless hitman named Bang who has a change of heart after getting a heart transplant.  THAT says it all.

Bang (2025) rates 2 of 5 stars.
