5. "Killers" seems like the kind of movie a person finds on TBS on a lazy Sunday afternoon sometime between the end of the pro football season and the start of serious college basketball games.
4. You leave it on as you doze in and out while sweat beads roll off your beer bottle and make a ring on the coffee table.
3. Katherine Heigl, playing a hapless single who falls in love with a hot dude while vacationing with her parents in France, does her job playing a wimpy woman-child with scoop-neck outfits to show off her only qualifications as an actress while Iowa's own Ashton Kutcher almost pulls off being a hardcore secret agent killer, until he talks and then you immediately hear, "Oh, it's Michael Kelso from 'That's 70's Show.'"
2. Tom Selleck is in the movie, too, as Heigl's dad, and people talk about his mustache a lot while Catherine O'Hara plays his wife, a lush.
1. I would describe the plot or the action, but it really isn't worth the verbiage because "Killers" is simply so mediocre that it never raises to the level of particularly offensive or interesting ... well, that and it'll be on TBS soon enough.

I love movies. They are my favorite non-sexual thing to do. I own more than 200 on DVD, not including TV series. They are our cultural language. When you ask someone if they've seen a movie, you're not asking them if they've spent money to see moving pictures. You're asking them if they have the same experiences that you have had – if you speak the same language. As Roger Ebert says, "Never marry someone who doesn't like the same movies as you."
