Source | 💰 Free BTC | 🎧 The UPP | 🔥 NFTs | 🐹 BTC Faucet | 📄 Posts | 🥽 VR | I finally decided to put Netflix account to use while traveling on the road for work. I was in search for a good movie to watch and came across a great one in the movie *The Killer*. It’s an Netflix original that came out a few years ago, and probably the best movie they’ve done. I thoroughly enjoyed the movie. *The Killer* is a movie a…More
The title of this movie nearly earned an eye roll from me because it felt too on the nose. Sure, I was in the mood for an action movie but not one that simply announced it was about killing. I mean, obviously that's the core of most crime and action movies. But, seeing Nathalie Emmanuel on the poster piqued my interest. I became a fan of this actress after her role as Missandei in *Game of Thrones* and as Ramsey in…More
You ever press play on a film just because your favorite actor’s face shows up on the poster? Yup, that was me with this film. Seeing Nathalie Emmanuel had me sold before I even knew the plot and for that alone, I wanted to love this film. But somewhere between the gunfire, the emotional tension and the cool Parisian streets, it lost me a little. Emmanuel plays Zee. She’s a calculated and composed assassin whose wor…More
The two attached movie poster is two movies sitting on opposite ends. Especially when talking about the correct way to copy (pastiche) and a bad way of doing it. The Killer is a 2024's John Woo directed movie with the same title with the 1989 classic masterpiece which stars Chow Yun-Fat . It has all the trademarks - doves in church, gun-fu etc. But it is quite appalling at this age of tech and information, the one w…More
Source Since the beginning of The Killer 2023 gave me that weird feeling of when you see a movie where everything is so tidy, so clean, that I even came to believe that Fincher the director is mopping every scene so that there is not a single spot, this is something crazy because the man is really too neat with this film, and that didn't make me feel connected, rather the opposite happened to me, I felt like I was a…More
It's been a while since I last saw something from Michael Fassbender after I watched Assault Creed which was a bit below my expectations. So I came across The Killer and thought it might not be a bad idea to go into it. In this movie, Michael Fassbender plays the role of an assassin once again, only this time he doesn't go around jumping from rooftops to another like he did in Assassin's Creed, although he did have…More
Fuente La última propuesta de David Fincher es la película The Killer y se estrenó en Netflix hace un tiempo, me parece que Fincher dirige thrillers muy buenos y pensé que este iba a ser igual, la película trata sobre un asesino sin nombre, además tiene a Michael Fassbender como protagonista. La película está basada en una novela francesa y aunque me gustan las adaptaciones a veces no funciona bien cuando un proyect…More
Source This a film that was highly anticipated and surprising since there was almost no news about it in the days leading up to its release, is a remake of the 1989 cult classic of the same name, directed by the same director John Woo. The truth is that he had little to no opening to the idea of this film, mainly due to the trash and disappointment that accompanied his previous work in the United States. “Sil…More
I love action movies and this week I decided to visit the Max app, which I had forgotten about, and I found this. The Killer, an action and suspense movie starring Nathalie Emmanuel. I found this actress in particular very beautiful since I met her in Game of Thrones as Missandei, a slave that the Queen of Dragons frees, then I saw her in Fast & Furious... And she has more movies but I admit that I haven't seen them…More
Hola amigos, buenas vibras para todos. > Hello friends, good vibes to all. Source! "The Killer", quizás el nombre más genérico y cliché para una película y aún así deciden seguir adelante con el. Antes de empezar a ver o decidir si la veía porque claro, con semejante nombre puede ser cualquier cosa, me puse a leer un poco de que iba y vi su elenco y es acá en donde hubo un par de nombres que me llamaron la atención:…More
Remakes are likely my least favorite type of film behind zombie films and even superhero movies. I find them to be the laziest kind of film-making in the world. Are we truly completely out of ideas and are just going to rehash stuff that worked in the past? While this film seemed to have a large budget, it was never released in cinemas as far as I can tell and instead was released on the Peacock streaming service ex…More
"The Killer" is one of the films that leaves a clear mark on the world of cinema thanks to its exciting story and the distinguished performances of its actors. Directed by John Woo and starring Chow Yun-Fat, this film is considered a classic of action crime cinema. In this review, we will review some of the main aspects of the film that make it special. The Plot The film's story revolves around a professional killer…More
Fassbender+Fincher+Assassin were enough to draw me to the movie. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ As for "The Killer," I don't know if it will appeal to everyone, or rather, I know it won't. It isn't a crime movie or thriller in the typical sense. It doesn't rely on mystery or twists. The plot isn't exciting. From start to finish, we follow a killer who eliminates his targets one after another, with a more personal motive than usu…More

This one surprised me.😃 The Killer is an eccentric thriller where we follow the dark world of an assassin played by Michael Fassbender. A mission goes wrong and has consequences for his lover, so he goes on a revenge spree to catch those behind it.…More
Hello, I'm delighted to be participating in the 3rd event of Hive Turkey! Today's topic was to write something about a movie or TV series we watched. You can find the announcement here. Since I've been in Istanbul, I've been watching a lot of movies with my friends, especially new releases on Netflix. Recently we watched the 2023 movie The Killer and I will share my thoughts about this movie with you, so sit back! s…More
The title of this film sets the stage for what to expect in this action thriller. There's no need to sugarcoat this—It's about a killer who does his job so spectacularly well that once he appears, his targets don't argue but succumb to their fate! I know I wouldn't want to meet someone like this in a dark alley. Based on the French novel series of the same name written by Alexis Nolent and directed by one of Hollywo…More
source My opinions on The Killer are a bit mixed. On one hand, as a fan of the Hitman games I absolutely love this look at slow, methodical assassination. I love that we get into our lead's mind. However...the narration is kind of ...I don't know how to describe the word. It's philosophical drive doesn't go anywhere. Yes, I know its his thought process, but it just doesn't really work for me. I do enjoy its simplici…More
I think that Michael Fassbender is one of the most underrated actors alive today. He has been in some really amazing films and one of them is *Shame* which I consider to be one of the best films ever made by anyone. He doesn't often get starring roles and this doesn't make a great deal of sense to me. I think he is a fantastic actor with skills that few other actors can match, yet he doesn't get many roles and this…More
David Fincher es un director norteamericano al que le he seguido la pista desde hace tiempo. Entre las obras de su filmografía que me han gustado están: Alien 3 (1992), The Game (1997), El club de la lucha (1999) y el extraño caso de Benjamín Button (2008). En todas estas películas hay planteamientos muy originales y una cuidada técnica cinematográfica. Al enterarme que había una nueva película, The Killer (2023), s…More
Courtesy-Sourced by... * If there is one contemporary film director who understands the concept of color in cinema particularly well, it is undoubtedly David Fincher.... There is a beauty that only his mind of suspense, human rot and use of artistic shots is capable of. I had no expectations when I watched "The Killer"; in fact, I watched it two days ago, as I came down with a very bad flu that put me to bed and lef…More
David Fincher is synonymous with "great audio-visual experience" and under his name this director has films like: Zodiac, Seven, Fight Club among others, besides being in charge of one of my favorite series Mindhunter, which unfortunately will remain unfinished for life, as David Fincher himself has said that making a series like Mindhunter is very expensive, for that reason we will no longer have 3rd season of this…More

Saludos Hivers, tengan todos un feliz martes, ya más cerca del viernes negro, así que vayan tomando sus ahorros para aprovechar las ofertas y comprar cosas necesarias e innecesarias también si pueden darse el gusto. Hablando de cosas innecesarias, os vengo a decirle de una vez que la trama de hoy no la vean, porque realmente considero que es muy mala. Hace unos días atrás había visto una película con un 10% de diálo…More
Hola amigos, buenas vibras para todos. > Hello friends, good vibes to all. *Source!* David Fincher es un director bastante particular y sobre todo bueno, es muy bueno en lo que hace. Es un tipo que a sus películas les da una cinematografía muy única siendo lo visual lo predominante, cosa que a mi como fotógrafo me vuela la cabeza, además de tener la capacidad para contar ciertas historias que tienden a ser muy intri…More
