Dominik will be damned if hes going to make some run of the mill shoot em up, and the film certainly isnt that, for better or worse. ( Read More )
Scott Tobias
While it isnt unusual for nasty little genre movies like Dominiks stylish heist thriller to smuggle such themes under the surface, Killing Them Softly makes them startlingly explicit. ( Read More )
Like Jesse James, theres a strangely elegiac quality to the film, only this time its hard to say what these characters are mourning. ( Read More )
Eric Kohn
Its one of the best action movies of the year simply because it keeps hitting the right beats. ( Read More )

As with the dialogue and performances, I should be thrilled by the quality of craft, but am instead worn down by the stark, brutal simplicity of the material. ( Read More )
