Killerman

I gave it a '7' because I don't think it was a waste of time at all. It was relatively fast-paced, violent, intense, with good acting and cinematography all around. 'Scarface' it ain't, but that's not what 'Killerman' was attempting to be. Just a solid popcorn urban drug flick to spend 90 minutes with. Worth your while.

Nooo Spoilers!! So Listen up people.. This is one of the very very decent thrillers that has come out in the past 12 months and trust me there has been very few that are well done and when I say we'll done I mean an original story that on its own could keep you on the edge of your seat if someone just told you about it just verbally!!! The story is the movie for me and then comes level of execution relative to the budget thats how I rate them and this one for me gets a straight 7 in that Genre and I rate movies based on Genres and intentions of the movie plus excution ofcourse for how many decent stories were ruined by film makers!!! This is very decent indeed and original and those who say its slow are not appreciating or understanding the idea of the story which is lame to me... Anyways go see it and I know if you are a smart viewer who has seen them all like me you'll definitely enjoy this one considering it's just above small budget but professionally done giving it the kick it needed!

Yes, there are better gangster movies.

But this is not a bad movie. Be patient and go along with the story and it's just a fine movie to watch. That is, when you like gangster/thriller movies, with some violence (bad things off camera) and the unavoidable foul language that goes with it.

Worth a watch when you wait until the story develops.

Extreme violence and some confusing plot elements in this crime thriller, but it did keep me engaged throughout with its air of menace.

Liam Hemsworth stars as Moe Diamond, a jeweler and money launderer, whose friend Skunk (Emory Cohen) has hooked him up with some jobs for his mobster uncle (Zlatko Buric). However, Moe and Skunk decide to do a multi million dollar drug deal on the side which goes terribly wrong and all kinds of mayhem will ensue. The twists at the end just add to all the wild and crazy happenings.

Overall, if you don't mind the over-the-top violence, the explicit language, or some confusing plot elements the film did keep me engrossed throughout.

This is novice writer, director and actor Malik Bader first writing attempt, and yes, it certainly needed tweaking in his screenplay, and the directing wasn't top notch, but for a low budget indie film, I actually enjoyed it - on a lazy Sunday popcorn flick. Casting was decent all around and everyone performed their characters quite well. The score was absent and subtle for the most part, but felt little overwhelming in some scenes. The cinematography was on point and I loved the old 80's themed setting. Certainly not worth all the 1's and 2's... based on the filmmakers repertoire and experience, as well as the low budget, it's well deserving of a 6.5 rounded up to a 7 due to the wannabe critics giving 1 and 2's. I do with the budget was a little bigger to have a seasoned screenwriter and assistant director, as that would've made this film great I'm still trying to find out if this was actually based on true events after reading the closing credits.
