Killer Joe
Kiko Martinez
“The film’s venom is extremely palpable, which makes it all the more disturbing to watch.”
“The film’s venom is extremely palpable, which makes it all the more disturbing to watch.”
“Unsettling…one gut-wrenching, suspenseful, and often bizarre crime docudrama.”
“A clever little idea that never materializes into anything as interesting as its initial concept.”
“Enjoyable…the doc will make you believe music can still be an intimate experience.”
“Director Nadine Labaki creates a genre mash-up that hardly gets to the heart of the matter.”
“Feels epic…but this final chapter doesn’t necessarily reach its full potential.”
“Average reboot of the series that offers slight tweaks but never commands the mythology as its own.”
“Seems to understand a feature film needs more substance than a 30-minute TV show can provide.”
“Isn’t what you’d expect from a studio whose focus has always been great storytelling.”
“Give the film credit for livening up the era, but by not saying much it’s really a missed opportunity.”
“Filmmaker Lawrence Kasdan’s futile foray back onto the big screen after almost a decade.”
“Actress Brit Marling is the strongest asset of an otherwise indecisive and transparent film.”
