Review of Killer Elite (2011) by Thegodfatherson — 12 Feb 2015
Killer Elite is a bad movie. It is a pulpy, cheesy, bloody action thriller, that bores rather than thrill. The story, set in the vivid streets of Oman and England, the movie switches places quickly. The spy suspense, is just people saying smart stuff, to make them look smart.
The truth is, this film is not smart. It is a dumbed down version of Bourne meets The A Team. The story is even worse, a guy who hires Jason Statham to kill guys who killed his three sons, so Jason can get his friend- Robert De Niro.
I didn't even get their names, because all the characters muttered swears and British slangs throuought. There is little action to cheer about, there is guns and blood, and sometimes it doesn't even make sense.
Clive Owen looks worse than ever in his role about a guy who wants to chase down the guy who works with Jason Statham. It is confusing, it's a movie you should not watch or care about, it is on Netflix and DVD.
But some stores have hidden it, so nobody even looks at this turd.
