Review of Killshot (2008) by Dan S — 21 Jun 2009
A decent suspense thriller featuring three outstanding performances from Diane Lane, Mickey Rourke, and the heavily underrated Joseph Gordon-Levitt (one of the best young actors out there right now). Although some gaping plot holes weigh the movie down to a degree, the suspense and sympathy for the chief characters are there, thanks in large part to careful direction by John Madden.
While the ending is a bit of a letdown due to its inability to close on an appropriate note, the bad guy combo of Rourke and Gordon-Levitt is as intimidating as it is totally mismatched. The rifle scenes are pretty excellent.
