“The Hit” (1984), directed by Stephen Frears. 98 minutes. Rated R. Terence Stamp is a hit man in hiding who’s kidnaped by mobsters. But though he’s on the road to his death, he seems to be having a great time. Or is it just an act to put the mobsters off guard while he plots his escape? This standard mob-vengeance plot is combined with the offbeat world of road movies and a heavy dose of Sergio Leone’s existential Westerns.
