Review of The Baker

The Baker (2007)
7/10
A very funny feel good movie
5 August 2012
Warning: Spoilers
I watched this for the second time today after searching for movies and material that Kate Ashfield had acted in.

The inclusion of Damien Lewis and Michael Gambon added to the appeal.

This is basically a feel good love story about a hit-man who decides to retire and find a better life in the countryside as a baker.

He has two big problems, the first is he can't bake and the biggest problem being, his employer does not want him to live in retirement and sends a rival assassin to kill him.

The local townsfolk are a group of the oddest misfits you are likely to find anywhere and that is where the fun starts.

Kate Ashfield as the local animal rescuer and the love interest is superb and the love/sex scene is one of the funniest you will ever see on screen.

Very well done movie and just the right length, I gave it a 7.
