Killshot

Killshot


Killshot was not the best movie by far. It is about a hitman, played by Mikey Rourke, with Diane Lane, Thomas Jane, Joseph Gordeon-Levit, and Rosario Dawson. This film was so hard for me to watch that I left the room before watching the ending.

Before you think I am about to blame the actors for this one, you are dead wrong. The reason I was able to watch as much as I did is because of the good acting. The general theme of the film was a hitman who had lost his brother in a job a long time ago, finds another youngster to fall in his footsteps. This story took forever to come about and I ended up not caring what evolved in the story.

The story, god this story was BADLY written. Quinten Tarintino produced this film, and I am SHOKED he did not put any of his creativity into this one. That would have made this film work. It was a dull, overdone storyline, in where the sequence of events where SO characteristic, that you were not impressed with the action portrayed in this film.

I still have no idea what the plot is because of leaving the viewing. BUT, if there even was a plot, it was so hard for this girl to find.

The characters on the other hand were quite interesting, and had MANY levels to them. I think the casting was spectacular. I have no issues with the Actors in this film; they all delivered more than they needed. Gladly, otherwise the film would not be.

The cinematography was HORRIBLE in this film. I was expecting something besides a group of teenagers with new video cameras trying to make their own short film in jr. high. This was really pathetic. The camera Angles were laughable.

I give this film 2 out of 5.
