Killers (2014) Reviews

  • Ferociously entertaining serial killer flick

    Leofwine_draca2015-04-15

    KILLERS is something different, a hard-hitting and explicitly violent serial killer outing made as a co-production between Indonesia and Japan. It's a film of two halves, one that tells two separate story lines that gradually merge before meeting up at the climax. The initial storyline is a Japanese-based tale about a guy who goes around murdering beautiful young women in the most vicious way imaginable. Even worse, he uploads footage of his crimes to the Internet for other users to enjoy. This is in the same territory as THE CHASER or I SAW THE DEVIL, absolutely disturbing viewing without dwelling on needless protracted torture or the like. Needless to say it's gripping, with subtle acting and a mature approach to the story. The second storyline is set in Indonesia, and brings to mind the world of THE RAID and its sequel; a couple of actors from those films feature prominently. It involves a journalist who fails to bring down a crime boss and soon finds himself driven into his own murky world of vigilante violence. The film's heart is present in the form of the likable Oka Antara, a guy who goes on a dark yet gripping journey. The storyline is unpredictable throughout, only becoming predictable for the violent climax. But for the most part it's exemplary: dark, harrowing, exciting, the sort of wide-reaching storyline that can only be told through cinema screens. The reason it's so good is that it focuses on the psychology of the killers, which makes this much more than another boring slasher. It's outstanding, in fact.

  • Incoherent and pointless thriller

    Zobras2015-02-17

    I had no idea in the beginning that "Killers" was a collaboration between Indonesian and Japanese filmmakers. I didn't know exactly what to expect as I started watching it. While the premise does sound promising, the movie goes nowhere later on. The Indonesian killer escape scene is far fetched. Only armed with a gun (and too scared to actually use it), he manages to escape 400 security guards in a hotel. His face gets exposed, yet he doesn't even get arrested by the local police. I guess it must be very easy to commit murder in Jakarta and get away with it. Another incoherence is the Japanese serial killer's ability to exactly locate the Indonesian man's address in Jakarta. He kills countless women he met on the streets of Tokyo but still manages to get away with it as well. The incestuous love he has for his sister is borderline silly and we don't really understand his real motivation behind the murders. The directors merely contempt themselves to present him as a mentally unstable man who seeks revenge on society. How unoriginal! While there are lots of good ideas in this movie, the rest makes you wonder why they actually bothered with it. Unless you are a fan of Kitamura, which is actually a brilliant actor, don't waste your time watching this!

    First, it has to be said that this film is brilliantly shot. The cinematography really is exquisite, and the whole film's aesthetic reminds me of the TV show Hannibal, in that it uses a slot of slow-motion and classic musical pieces as well as looking very elegant despite a lot of disturbing content and gore. The directing here is fine, the screenplay has some holes though. The performances are quite strong too, and really do seem to elevate their script's material. As a whole, this is very bloody and pretty horrifying, would not recommend it to the squeamish, but as a film, it's a fine one, if even very flawed at times. Seek it out.

  • "The first artwork is always Untitled" - Bloody Masterpiece

    Haider-kazmee2015-01-12

    Don't miss out on this movie, and if you seen I saw the Devil then you must watch this .I saw a trailer recently and I had no Idea what was going on in the trailer. I noticed that Merantua films, xyz films, and Gareth Evans was involved in this project. If you have seen the raid, or raid 2 you know that those three things I've listed are not going to disappoint you. The movie revolves around a Japanese psychopath who kills for the fun and feeling of it. There are very few movies in which they show the mind of a killer and how he thinks at times. The effects in this movie look very realistic . I really love the blend between the Indonesian and Japanese world. Don't give the movie a bad rating because you thought it was disturbing . The movie competes with I saw the Devil, and The Chaser. Acting-9/10 Score-10/10 Violence- 10/10 Story-9/10 Overall :10/10

  • Expected something slow, but OK - good. So, what is it i got?

    Bugs_Bundy2015-01-06

    ----------------------- NO SPOILERS AT ALL ---------------------- I've just finished watching. Surely, at the very first, i have to admit, that i am stunned in every way possible. Although i expected not that much of it at all. But, that was swayed by all the fuc**d up reviews i read. They said, the movie is slow, hard to watch, absolutely predictable, bla bla bla and especially etc. The best for this film to be loved by you, is to have that special interest for ALL kinds of Psycho - Movies, in any kind, and especially that sweet special interest for stunning character-developments. (i would name a few of the many examples, that it refers to as tribute, but, sadly, it would spoil too much of the story-line) Everything is told, through two truly extraordinary actors. Both of them are taking everything of their act to the maximum .... Without taking the reality felt, away from it. Different, realistic, bad spirited and still.... with a real good piece of heart. And if it comes down to the perfectly paced soundtrack, also, all my wishes were fulfilled. So, for me, i really can not agree with these reviews i have read quite recently. But, and this is for sure, i can not recommend this movie to anyone. It is quite violent indeed. Definitely not soothing to the softly-minded or -hearted. So please, anyone that got that hard stomach to take this kind of film... ...HERE IS OUR NEW MASTERPIECE --- Which is, honestly, the best Homage, to so many great movies i love, movies that are done by people, loving what they are doing, loving the source of their drive. And out of that, combine them, and make something new with it. While through this, repeated said, it is a good movie for someone, but a Masterpiece for the right ones. Thank you for reading this very subjective Review. Sincerely your's Bugs Bundy
