Solitary, cold, methodical and unencumbered by scruples or regrets, a killer waits in the shadows, watching for his next target. Yet, the longer he waits, the more he thinks he's losing his mind, if not his cool.

The Killer Ratings & Reviews
FilmWeek (LAist)
Peter Rainer
[David Fincher] certainly has powerhouse craft when all cylinders are firing -- which they are in this movie... A first-rate neo-noir.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Tim Cogshell
[It has] the best fight scene I've seen in a movie in a long, long time. It's thrilling. I really, really dug this.
Los Angeles Times
Joshua Rothkopf
The Killer is an opportunity for America's most stylish director to reboot, to get back to basics, to come in under two hours.
Chicago Reader
Lauren Coates
Despite a measured performance from Fassbender and a clear vision/understanding of world-building in Fincher's approach to visual storytelling, The Killer lacks any kind of teeth.
The Ringer
Adam Nayman
David Fincher's latest thriller, The Killer, is cold to the touch and might even seem impenetrable, but it contains multitudes for anyone interested in finding meaning.

David Fincher's Jeanne Dielman.

The Killer is dead on arrival-a cheerless bit of 21st century pop existentialism
Entertainment Weekly
Maureen Lee Lenker
Fincher is adept at excoriating the darkness of the human soul, but he's missed his mark with a character so blindly determined to prove he doesn't have one.
Observer
Oliver Jones
The film is a veritable tone poem on the nature of work in the modern world. The Killer is a simultaneously hollow and profound meditation on the numerous ways identity has been swallowed up and voided by the various demands of commerce and brand.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
The Killer has an old-fashioned feel and still manages to nail its target by bringing dashes of freshness, wit and unpredictability to this well-worn genre.
Salon.com
Gary M. Kramer
The Killer's target dodged a bullet. Viewers who skip this film can, too.
Digital Trends
A.A. Dowd
Leave it to Fincher to find something personal in an ode to impersonality.
ABC News
Peter Travers
It's Fincher's deliciously depraved conceit that his perfectionist process is not unlike the killer's. In his hands, and a mesmerizing title turn from Fassbinder, what could have been a hitman cliche becomes a tangle of loose ends hauntingly left untied.
Associated Press
Jake Coyle
Everything here is tantalizingly close to calculated perfection that it comes almost as a surprise how The Killer ends up missing its mark.
NPR
Justin Chang
I'm not suggesting his story cries out for a sequel, but by the time this very dark comedy reaches its strangely sunny ending, you're curious to see what job this killer - and Fincher himself - might take on next.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
The Killer is not Fincher's best; it's more of an offbeat character study with impressive production values than a fully realized drama.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
The character is boring and so is this movie, but like the supremely skilled Fincher, who can't help but make images that hold your gaze even as your mind wanders, Fassbender does keep you watching.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
You'll eat it up and watch it again, perhaps only to realize that maybe there's something deeper that's being said about a general lack of empathy in a short-sighted world where we often feel we just need to get the job done, no matter the toll.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
At heart, an elevator pitch for a two-hour pilot for a slick, junky Netflix series about a globe-trotting assassin.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
As slight and as inconsequential as it may be, the film is still quite amusing, even if it does vanish from memory not too long after the story's events have concluded.
