Review of Killer Joe (2012) by Ariel84 — 20 Mar 2014
This film marked the beginning of the McConaissance and with good reason: mcconaughey is perfection. smartest guy in the room, charming, and cold. brilliant and gutsy career choice. thomas haden church is also perfection.
two great texas boys. i'm not a grindhouse fan, but the black humor. gorgeous cinematography, and friedkin's direction made this B-movie modern noir. had to watch some with one eye closed, but, hey, I had been warned.
to think a director in his mid-70s made this film and wouldn't compromise makes me admire william friedkin all the more.
