Lion Killer

Lion Killer tells the story of 2 lost souls trying to find their place in the world after a lifetime of tragedies. The movie has some great cinematography and a good soundtrack. It's a bit reminiscent of Good Will Hunting and Karate Kid. Lion Killer leaves a powerful message with a lot of heart.

Lion Killer isn't what I expected at all. Much better, actually. Beautifully-filmed, well-acted by a good-looking cast, and with a very interesting story about battling inner demons through martial arts. An adult version of The Karate Kid, one might say, although that doesn't do it justice.

An Indie film that explores emotional struggles and human relationships as well as been insightful in the world of Jiu- Jitsu. The martial arts were done expertly and weaved very well into the tone of the story.

Lion Killer takes us into the world of Brazilian Jui-Jitsu instructor, Michael. The choreography of the dojo scenes was excellent. I loved the performances by Matthew Meehan and Regina Ting Chen and was incredibly impressed with the quality of the filmmaking. A wonderful combination of writing and cinematography as well. Masterfully done, highly recommend.

I really love dramas with an inspirational message about overcoming hardships. This film showcases that Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu can be a path forward onward - a method to overcome trauma. I learned quite a bit about Jiu-Jitsu too and am inspired to explore this more. I've seen other drama films where the characters use art as a method of overcoming. Love can help heal as well is a fantastic message in this film. My congratulations to these filmmakers for creating this moving film that so many people will relate to.
