WHY YOU SHOULD STREAM The Killer - TIPS FROM JUSTWATCH

  • Essential viewing for fans of a good old-fashioned revenge plot

    "Fans who love a thrilling revenge story will be intrigued by David Fincher's The Killer. Although it is a straightforward revenge story, Fincher makes it unique by examining the titular Killer's struggles with OCD and giving the film a noir flare. Michael Fassbender is convincing as a stone-cold killer, while Fincher's meticulous filmmaking and direction shine through in the Killer's quirks and the smooth and thrilling ride the plot provides. The Killer is a revenge story at heart but also elevates its premise with a few unique touches."
