Arnold Schwarzenegger, Taran Killam, Amir Talai, Bobby Moynihan, Ryan Gaul, Aaron Yoo, Hannah Simone, Allison Tolman, and Paul Brittain in Killing Gunther (2017)
A group of young, raw and undisciplined assassins hire a docu-crew at gun point, to have undeniable proof that they're the ones who will kill the most infamous hitman of all time, Gunther. But Gunther is on to them before they know it and he makes it his personal mission to make their lives a living hell. It becomes a race against time: kill or be killed, as the hunters quickly become the prey.

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      In the opening montage about Gunther and where he might live, a map shows a town in Austria called Graz. This is in fact the town where Arnold Schwarzenegger's grew up.
    • Goofs
      When Sanaa tells her story and they show her shooting a guy in a jeep, her sniper rifle doesn't even twitch. Such a weapon would have significant, visible recoil and a heavy shock to her shoulder when firing an actual bullet.
    • Quotes

      Blake: [after Gunther escapes on a chopper] He got to the chopper.

    • Crazy credits
      "Gunther will return in The Gunther Who Loved Me (if this movie makes any money)"

    Kinda mehhhh
    Killing Arnold

    This film could have been so much better if Arnold Schwarzenegger was in the film through out it as opposed to just squished in at the end as some grand reveal. Plus as you already know the trailer spoils the heck out of the Schwarzenegger reveal, but you can't blame the trailer because they knew people would be more likely to watch a B-film if they knew a big star was in it. Long story short, editing hurts the film.
