    Hello Clint,

    Personnally, I?like ‘everything he stands for’, which implies he is sensed also as a corrupt person:

    ‘When a?soldier finds his?hometown more corrupt than before?he left, he must fight his own world?to fix things.’

    ?’When a?soldier finds his?hometown more corrupt than when?he left, he must fight what?he stands for?to fix things.’

    Hello ?Clint,

    I don’t agree with DPG whose advice matches with action movies (which is not exactly yours, unless I’m mistaken).

    IMO, you already have what you need in a logline (explicitement or implicitement):
    – a?catalyst (the visit of the uncle)
    – a hero (the hitman)
    – a flaw (he’s a villain)
    – an antagonist (his uncle and maybe his daughter)
    – an external goal (kill his next victim)
    – an obstacle/problem to solve (the visit of his drug abused uncle)
    – Something at stakes (his reputation and security?and?maybe his daughter)
    – a mentor (his 6 year old daughter)
    – an inner goal (a way to redemption?)
    – an arc… (which doesn’t mean he necessarily will changes of job. In a Tarantino’s movie, he would not hahaha!)

    Is this lesson about life the manner how his 6 year old daughter deals with his uncle’s addiction and some other consideration about their mutual relation? or something similar?
    If so, I find your logline good.

    “When a hitman is visited?by his drug abused Uncle in the midst of a kill, he is given a chance to learn the essence of life through his six-year-old daughter.”
    or
    “When a hitman is visited?by his drug abused Uncle in the midst of a kill, he is given a lesson about the essence of life through his six-year-old daughter.”

    Best.
