  • The Killer is one of Fincher's more lowkey films. It's also a surprising reflection of Fincher as a director and how he approaches film making. Sort of loved how no matter how obsessive the main character was about being the perfect killer he continued to make so many mistakes along the way.

The Killer Review: Fincher's Well-Crafted Thriller Has A Muted Emotional Tenor
8/10

My instinct is that appreciation for The Killer will grow with time, as we get used the muted emotional tenor we didn't expect from a Fincher movie.
