Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times This seemingly generic thriller has plenty of twists in store, but perhaps none as surprising and impressive as its ability to manipulate the viewer - first to side with the villains, then to question one's own core beliefs. Jan 22, 2015 Full Review Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times Though hardly immune to cliché ... this squirmy tale of dueling addictions gets points for skillful spikes of humor. Jan 22, 2015 Full Review G. Allen Johnson San Francisco Chronicle For those of you who like it, have at it. Count me out. Rated: 1/4 Jan 22, 2015 Full Review Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh Following its promising opening scene, the rest of the film never quite reaches the heights of that introduction, ultimately suffering from its extended run time. Rated: 3/5 Sep 20, 2023 Full Review Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse This is not a psychological thriller, but a fast-paced, violent, and bloody one, and in this aspect, Mo Brothers prove their abilities. Many faults in the script though Aug 17, 2019 Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Killers is meant to be one of those jeering, cheering, clapping, slapping, stabbing, punching, screaming odes to visceral entertainment that's desperately trying to seem less odious than torture porn. Sometimes, it feels like it actually is. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 18, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member KEINE AHNUNG WAS DAS SOLLTE Also nen Reporter sucht nen Killer, der lässt sich finden und überzeugt dann den Reporter auch zu töten, weil was dich stört töte es einfach, was? Hab leider nicht kapiert was der Film mir sagen will. Ich fand auch alle Figuren unsympathisch, besonders die beiden Hauptfiguren wovon ich den Killer noch nachvollziehen konnte weil der hat ja schon den Sinn im Namen. Doch der Reporter wollte nicht in mein Hirn, ausser das er wie wild immer seinen Laptop anschreit, ebenfalls andere Leute tötet aber dem Killer dann sagt "das geht aber nicht" macht er halt auch nicht viel. Dazu gibt es Familiendrama das keiner braucht, dafür jede Menge Blut naja wer es braucht. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/12/25 Full Review C H A true psychological thriller/horror from Timo Tjahjanto. Brilliant performances and a fantastic atmosphere with many twists and turns. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Audience Member Tyypillinen aasialainen ylipitkä leffa jota olisi ihan hyvin voinut tiivistää ainakin 30 minuutilla. Toinen ärsyttävä piirre on ns. aasialainen joukkokohellus ja siihen liittyvä mielipuolinen huuto. Ajoittain aika väkivaltainen. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member This wild thing gets its claws into you early, and keeps them there by way of spectacular direction and pair of sure-handed, albeit at-times melodramatic, performances by Kazuki Kitamura and Oka Antara, whom I feel shines the brightest. "Killers" is that rare confident, (possibly) pretentious, and always tense breed of psychological thriller that you give your express permission to kick your teeth down your throat in the visual assault. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Drags on way too long, and is a bit confusing to follow at times as it follows two men in two countries- one in Japan, one in Thailand- and all the associated characters and many deaths and beatings, due to both men being psychopaths. Attention got a bit strained by the end, but for a dark action movie, it wasn't too bad. Once was definitely enough, though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member The Mo brothers are going places... Better than any Hollywood movie! Story line is so impressive Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
