San Jose Mercury News

Rodger Griffiths’ debut is a taut, no-fussing-about thriller that grabs you enough to make you overlook some rough patches.

Rated: 2.5/5

Leslie Felperin

Guardian

The suspense-building and denouement are adequate enough, but what makes this more interesting is how director Rodger Griffiths weaves in a subtle dissection of how abuse can damage families in different ways.

Rated: 3/5

Kill is both a calling card for its cast and crew and a fun exercise in plotting.

Common Sense Media

This overplotted Scottish thriller is equal parts family drama and bloody revenge saga.

Strong Female Antagonist

Griffiths creates a harrowing study of generational trauma and reminds us that sometimes the human monsters are scariest of all.

Rated: B+

Kill gives you exactly what you want for two solid hours, only pausing to soak in the ridiculous dramatics that accompany every excellently choreographed action sequence.

An absolute underrated hidden gem of a film where 3 brothers plane to kill their abusive father. Great pacing, good acting, and a film with great themes that make this film a must watch.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

It’s not the worst movie I have ever watched. And… pretty good for a b flick I enjoyed the twist at the end. I just had a hard time with the 11 story drop to an armored water proof laundry door

Rated 3 out of 5 stars
