A killer with an impeccable reputation and enviable endurance (Michael Fassbender) He makes a fatal mistake and as a result fails miserably in his mission to Paris. After this, he becomes a target and his girlfriend is also targeted. The killer then begins eliminating anyone who poses a danger to him, from his perpetrators to his former employer and client.
The fact that fans of The Smiths should be treated at least with caution was obvious, even without David Fincher (see the wonderful film “500 Days of Summer”), but of course it wouldn’t hurt to remind them once again. The group led by Morrissey, who has begun to openly support the far-right in recent years, is probably on the list of “red flags” not far from “Fight Club” – also by Fincher and also a much-loved far-right (the fate of this film lies in Alexey Balabanov’s It rhymes with what happened to the “brother” duo, the difference being only in the consequences of their perverted perceptions).
However, such problems should not arise, especially in the perception of “Murderer” (won’t they?). This is an extremely, even blatantly simple movie (degree of accuracy: Lars von Trier’s “The House That Jack Built”) with a nice touch of boulevardism – about a poorly disguised white straight man with extremely high self-esteem behind false modesty and not actually supported by anything. The thought process here is generally in line with the repertoire of a standard boys’ public domain page (misattributed quotes in place) and aims from the rational to the emotional in unsuccessful attempts to draw the owl into the world. The cause of this behavior is probably an undiagnosed obsessive-compulsive disorder – as they say, but there were conversations. In general, if there is “Fight Club” in the “Assassins” universe, we can safely include the character of Fassbender among its proud fans.
Another thing is interesting. “Killer” is very simple, especially Unlike before for the “Mank” directorThis is a little discouraging at first: The movie is absolutely great, but it’s not what you’d expect from Fincher’s reunion with “Seven” screenwriter Andrew Kevin Walker. That is, this is definitely not a turning point and not even a great sleep shot (Fincher has a lot of them), but a targeted “beshechka” that carries a strong charge of cultism in narrow circles: if the picture had been released half a month ago. a century ago, two and a half people would have seen it (one of them is Quentin Tarantino), and today the inhabitants of mailboxes and Twitter film would show off the tape.

Moreover, there is a lot to show here. The Killer isn’t exactly the kind of movie you’d expect from a Fincher-Walker reunion, since it’s not exactly a Fincher movie, except Steven Soderbergh’s ears are sticking out everywhere (he also recently directed the Hitchcock-style thriller in which he stars). a neurodivergent character, Kimi “). Those who follow the director’s traditional accounts of what he saw and read throughout the year will remember that he watched “The Killer” four times in one week in August 2022. Recently, the reason for this finally became clear: Out of friendship, Fincher sent him the footage and so he sent back the re-edited versions – and it looks like Soderbergh’s edits made it into the final version.
In this sense, Soderbergh can often be found at crime scenes, because Soderbergh kind of does this for fun. For example, during the break between “Contagion” and “Magic Mike,” he briefly shot “The Hunger Games” for his friend Gary Ross, then boasted in an interview that it was impossible to tell exactly which scenes were by sight. its production. Also on his website is a black and white version of the first Indiana Jones he has handcrafted for educational purposes in many years; here all the sounds are replaced by the music of Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross from The Social Network and The Social Network. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (both Fincher). Well the guy is having fun, what can you do?
“The Killer” appears to be the work of leading film experts; It’s as if after the club closed, all the honored masters of jazz gathered for a song and rushed to play the scales. This scale plays in a way that will take your breath away.
