Bobby LePire Film Threat Smile As You Kill is a well-produced, well-acted thriller. Rated: 9/10 Jan 22, 2025 Full Review Rebecca Johnson Film Focus Online Well acted with a thought-provoking premise, Smile As You Kill is a competent indie film that despite squandering its attempt to keep you on the edge of your seat, keeps you invested with deliciously dark comedy.

Stephan P Fun, jndie pressure cooker thriller. Tight script, great performances by the two leads, I cared for the characters. Some great humorous moments too. Only reason for 4 stars is the directing and lighting/framing felt flat and soap’ish. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review L S There are twists and turns in this thriller. The writing is clever and coming from an advertising background I found it to be compelling. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/17/25 Full Review David N If you’re looking for Hollywood flash and polish, look elsewhere. This indie film’s modest budget occasionally peeks through—minor imperfections that are easily forgiven. In return, you’re treated to a unique and thoughtful story that blends heavier moments with witty dark humor and delivered by strong performances. A well-paced film that maintains a steady rhythm, it's well worth your 87 minutes. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/15/25 Full Review Warren S Very interesting plot. Well acted and directed. Kept my interest throughout. Would highly recommend. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/13/25 Full Review Steven H well done exciting and keeps you engaged Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/11/25 Full Review Betty S Clever and timely film. Rico does evoke compassion as representative of the desperation a seriously ill person experiences when health care is out of reach due to its exorbitant cost. Well done !
