Acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro recently took to Twitter to express his admiration for David Fincher’s latest work, “The Killer”. Despite the film’s contentious reception, Del Toro showers the movie with high praise for its stylistic grit and precision in a tweet.
The tweet reads,
“The Killer is a beautiful Bronson movie if penned by Sartre and filmed by Melville with the briskness of a Siegel. I simply love, love, love when Fincher swings with a mean genre beat. Nimble and clockwork precise and fun. The breeziest film I have seen in a long time. It’s great when you can see a film and a movie at the same time.”
The Critical Verdict on “The Killer”
Despite the Pan’s Labyrinth director’s adoration, overall reviews for “The Killer” are a mixed bag. While the response is largely positive, the consensus seems to deem it not one of Fincher’s finest works. However, it doesn’t mean you should give it a miss. This cinematic offering still surpasses a large majority of new movies in the market, establishing its worthiness for your viewing time.
Labeling it as a “minor” effort from Fincher may stir some dispute among film enthusiasts, but it’s an opinion held by a notable portion of critics.
