Just kind of drifted along without much happening. Quite realistic. I enjoyed it.

I've seen parts of it before but this was the first time i've seen the entire film. It's a brilliantly original concept, it's well shot and looks perfect in simple black and white. I also love the way there tends to be some kind of awkwardness or tension in every conversation.

i prefer the more harsher bleaker Bullet in the Head, also by John Woo but The Killer is alright

Yeah Iggy and Tom's conversation is the highlight of the film for me. Rza and Gza with Bill Murray is hilarious.

Better than I had thought it would be. Far from original but enjoyable. A small but very, very funny part from Steve Buscemi was more than welcome too.


Great to see Pegg and Frost together again on screen. I laughed quite a lot throughout.

Just got back from finally seeing this. I thought it was really good, but I'm not sure it deserved best picture. Colin Firth was incredible as always, so was Geoffrey Rush. The chemistry between them was great to watch. Also, his final speech to Beethoven's 7th was really powerful.

yep. it was a very solid film. there wasn't anything brilliant about it. if it were up to me, I'd have given best actor to Bardem and best picture to Black Swan.

I agree with you on Bardem though.
