Leave your thoughts about Killerman.
| VarietyJoe LeydonBader does a respectable job of sustaining interest by repeatedly introducing clichés and genre tropes, then upending expectations or taking unpredictable detours. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe result might feel overlong and overwrought; yet thanks to Bader’s clever plotting and fruity dialogue — as well as strong supporting players — this grimy picture climaxes more satisfyingly than expected. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeThe gritty pic's aesthetic scratches an itch for lovers of '70s/'80s urban grime. But atmosphere and attitude overwhelm story here, and trotting out old tropes like amnesia doesn't help. |
| Movie NationRoger MooreThis movie staggers along. So many of its sins could be minimized by an unsentimental slashing of establishing shots and establishing scenes, a thinning out of that dead-zone in the middle and a vigorous pass at the nervy but too drawn-out finale. |
| Washington PostHau ChuKillerman takes its influences — countless pulpy crime thrillers — and synthesizes them into an increasing rare thing: a movie that doesn’t aspire to any greater heights than where it lands: squarely in the middle of the August dumping ground. |
| TheWrapCarlos AguilarKillerman lacks personality both stylistically and in its overall story construction. |
| Los Angeles TimesKimber MyersDespite the presence of theoretically interesting elements such as dirty cops, amnesia and money-laundering, Killerman is two hours of pure boredom. |
| User ReviewmickdayGlad I watched in theatre... what a crazy violent ride of a movie. Liam Hemsworth plays a money launderer in seedy NYC(which I don't know last time was this convincingly grimy) and things go wildly out of control and send him on the run for his life with his sidekick best friend named Skunk. And a wild ride it is that ends in a crazy awesome finale that I did not see coming. It laid all of my observations and questions leading up to it to rest as it makes the film all that much more satisfying... and the ending riding of into the sunset so not what you would expect. I did wish Lola was in the car with them. |
| User ReviewTylorDurdenFeels like a pretty good gangster movie, style and coolness a bit like The Drop or Drive, but different story. Definitely worth checking out. |
