The assassin for hire genre has been done in so many interesting ways. The great grand daddy of them all is of course Melville - and you can trace the influence down through John Woo (with a delightful melodramatic twist), Luc Besson and so many others. Ghost Dog to me is a great tribute to Melville and the Zen Assassin with the requisite Jarmusch quirkiness. I wouldn't consider Machete to be a assassin film - for it was simply a plot device, which could have been replaced with something far more interesting. The other two I have not seen, though heard great things about The American. Great post.
