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.

New York Times

Though hardly immune to cliché ... this squirmy tale of dueling addictions gets points for skillful spikes of humor.

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

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

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

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

Late R

Whilst it was slickly filmed and touched on some interesting themes such as what drives or triggers people to become a killer, the movie spends as little time as possible focusing on that leaving you with a somewhat murky picture of the characters and lots of unanswered questions. Instead, it opts to turn its attention to the murders themselves and showing them in graphic detail. In the end, 'Killers' is an overly long gore fest that will only satisfy a certain type of moviegoer.

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

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.
