KILLER

Similar to Miami Vice, the portrayals are gritty, unflinching and fearless and the blood flows. Should we have lawless cops that gun down evildoers? They get more bad guys but they turn corrupt themselves. Reeves plays one that is unique, operating above the law but not for money. He does it because he loves it and has a sense of justice. I had to admire him despite misgivings about morality and the rules of law. As a film I was riveted to the screen and never found it predictable. Reviewers say it had too many cliches but many people talk in cliches. Not every script can be Citizen Kane. One of the best performances by Keanu Reeves. |
