Sounds like fun...seems similar to 'Please Kill Mr. Know It All'?

Saw this lesser known movie that has a similar plotline. I'm wondering if the writer "borrowed" some ideas from this.

I doubt it. Mr. Right's script has been around since 2010 or so.

its not entirely a new concept. "hit man finding romance then fighting off assassins because hes trying to quit" has been done many times before. "the big hit" from 1998 starring mark wahlberg for example. not exactly the same but some similar themes. also "knight and day" with tom cruise came to mind when i was watching Mr Right.. i quite enjoyed it. nothing spectacular but ok for a low budget comedy action movie...
