The Killer2023
Nov 11, 2023 · imported from Letterboxd
Possibly Fincher’s most subdued film yet super slick and methodical in giving us a character study of a killer. We know the stakes are high and risk that character might face but Fincher is more interested in “What makes him a patient killer” even when it has hit him personally. So we are not bothered about what is at stake but this is more to do with what’s going on in Killer’s mind at that moment. Character himself narrates his mind to viewers - His method, routine, carefully planning everything. Nice small immersion feeling it gives. Such a simple cool film from Fincher. I didn’t expect it. I still loved it even if I feel I wanted more from it. And with Fassbender’s performance, soundtrack also RULES 🔥
