Review of Kill List (2011) by Nicki M — 27 Jan 2012
I would say this movie had potential, but it was executed badly.
The pacing in the beginning is excruciatingly slow. A man with a wife and young son has been out of work for eight months and the money has started to run out causing arguments. You then find out his profession is a hit man, and even stranger, the wife has no problem with it and leaps at the chance for him to do some more "jobs" with an old colleague.
Thrown into the mix is the old colleagues new girlfriend, Fiona, who seems to be slightly satanic and the fact that this man starts to enjoy the killings too much to the point he seems to be losing his mind.
Between Fiona's strange behaviour and the way the man is behaving, and the way all his victims keep thanking him as he does unspeakable things to them, it seems like something quite interesting might be coming in the story.... unfortunately it's not.... it's actually quite stupid and not only does it make no sense, you will probably be cross you wasted your time sitting through the boring (and revolting killing scenes), to get to it.
