Watch Contract Killers For Free

Absolutely Fantastic

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

CONTRACT KILLERS is a generic indie action film that hails from New Zealand. The plot is about a greenhorn hitman who finds himself targeted by a veteran assassin, with a battle of wits between the pair ensuing. It's a film bogged down by dark, cheap photography throughout and the usual indifferent performances and predictable scripting that this genre is known for. The one highlight is that the actors show off some good moves in the fight scenes, but these scenes are spoilt by a cameraman who shakes his camera around for no reason whatsoever. A static camera combined with precise editing would have produced better results.

Firstly i need to know if there is a category below, way below a 'B' movie. Well i'm calling this a 'Z' movie. I didn't recognise any of these actors, they look like they were moonlighting from a really cheap daytime soap. The fight scenes looked like they'd been choreographed by the directors mother, just laughable. I continued to watch it, not out of any desire to see how the characters faired but just in a state of bewilderment. How could anyone deem this completely amateurish garbage worthy of release? By release i mean shipped to the discount DVD bin in Walmart, buried under the latest Segal abomination. Watch this film to critique its extremely poor quality or to fool your friends into thinking you've just acquired a sneak pre-release, then watch their faces as the movie unfolds. If you have a brain then you'll know in the first few minutes that this film is crap but alas some will watch the whole debacle then turn and say "hmmm not bad" at which point you terminate your friendship and point them to the exit.

See the beginning, sleep, wake, turn off...if only I had done this...So we see a very predictable plot unfolding before our eyes, the acting is almost wooden...there is so much gun fire from guns which seem inexhaustible of bullets...we see armoured men blasting away with machine guns, unable to hit a barn wall...the "kung foo" action sequences are staged...not amasing...this is what I would describe as a "B" movie, the one before the main feature...to give it a 2 is actually more than deserved...To sum up is what I said at beginning, see the beginning, fall asleep, wake turn off...don't waste your time or money going to see a film which perhaps should not have made it from the cutting room floor..

In short, this movie is bad. It's not awful, but it's somewhere between "bad" and "terrible." Here's why: The biggest problem this movie has is that the characters have no depth, all of the other issues are secondary to this, but the characters lack any real emotion.Now, character depth is one thing, but the movie itself is simply bad. The special effects are terrible, they remind me of Rambo (the first one), but even that movie had semi-realistic muzzle flashes.The audio track for the firearms in this movie is completely wrong. The small caliber pistols sound like large caliber pistols, and the rifles sound like 22s. I'm sorry, but this is 2014, there are numerous audio tracks of guns being fired, it's not that hard to make a realistic shootout in 2014 when everyone and his brother can use over the counter software to make a realistic shootout on their own PC.Finally, the story.I didn't want to write about the story, not because it's dreadful, but because like the characters, and the special effects, it's very unremarkable. Within five minutes of the movie starting, you will already know how it ends, the space in between is just a homogeneity of poor acting and poor effects. But the story is your run of the mill boy + girl + crisis story.If you have seen any recent action movie where the hero rides off with the girl at the end, you've likely seen all you will see here.
