Watch You Kill Me For Free

the audience applauded

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Absolutely brilliant

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

I can say that I have really killed my time with this movie. There is nothing happening in it, it is a mixture of stories in which a hit-man after fails to fulfill a mission as he slept, is sent by his uncle to San Francisco to take a little vacation to recovery. Here he goes to meet a group of alcoholics anonymous where he meets his contact person. He takes a part-time job at a funeral home where he meets his half and after being an average woman reaches by the end of the movie to be a professional assassin only after he showed her some techniques of handling the knife. Too bad the movie did not come out much better especially with a cast so great.

I am a Polish guy from the fine city of Buffalo. This movie was filmed in Canada where there must not be any polish people to help with accents or pronunciation. Buffalo is a cheap city to film in. Why be in Canada? Just one sky line shot would have been nice. The story wasn't memorable. It wasn't really important to me i like to see my city and culture portrayed the right way. Screw Flanders!! And extra lineScrew Flanders again.Go Sabers! TO Screwed buffalo over!How many lines do i have now?

Dahl's 'You Kill Me' is an offbeat dark comedy. The concept of an alcoholic hit-man forced to be on sabbatical in order for him to quit by joining an AA meeting and during the process falling in love with a feisty young woman is intriguing and hilarious. 'You Kill Me' has plenty such funny moments but the problem for me was that, somewhere in the middle, it moves at an extremely slow pace. Moreover the film does have its share of clichés especially towards the end and it would have been more enjoyable if the story was a little more tightpacked. I liked the violin pieces that played in the background every time Frank was having a good and a bad moment. Kingsley is great as Frank Falenczyk. Tèa Leoni is hilarious. Known for her comedic abilities, here her approach is subtle. Her reaction to Frank and her dialogue delivery is superb. Luke Wilson is sadly wasted. Being a big fan of black comedy, 'You Kill Me' was worth a one-time watch mostly because of the comic scenes and the performances.

Comedy? What's so funny about watching an ugly deadbeat alcoholic attending 6 sessions (by the time I turned it off) of alchoholics anonymous? Set off by a woeful script of grunts and mumbles and drunken slurrings. Served up with lashings of Hollywood's religious "God will Save you" redemption drivel Another Reviewer mentioned the "Sassy dialogue" of Tea Leone - well I managed to watch nearly an hour of this boring film and I still haven't seen any sassy yet - in fact my 80 year old grandmother has more amusing comebacks than Tea's character in this rubbish. Tea is more stony faced and shows less emotion than Keanu - in fact one wonders if she too isn't addicted to something - maybe botox her face is so wooden? Save yourself from being killed with boredom from this film.
