The Killer stars Michael Fassbender and is directed by David Fincher (Seven, Alien 3, Fight Club). The film tells the story of a professional contract killer who goes on a revenge spree. The Killer is well shot and looks good and Fassbender is fine in the lead role, although with the character he plays being so cold, at times his performance can feel a little one note. Sporadic action scenes when they happen are well staged, and there is some sharp dialogue throughout the film. It is slightly too long with a 2 hour runtime as a slight sense of repetitiveness creeps in as we go from act to act. Ultimately The Killer is a film which does very little wrong however nothing really stands out either. In summary a solid and well made film which feels a little soulless.
