Based on the graphic novel series by Alexis Nolent, The Killer follows a ruthless hitman (Michael Fassbender) who finds himself the target of an international manhunt after a botched assassination.
"This is a thriller of pure surface and style and managed with terrific flair and Fassbender’s careworn, inscrutable face is just right for it." - Guardian
"Instead of overloading his story with fussy layers, Fincher pares everything back to the genre’s essence." - Time Magazine
"...a minimalist nihilist action opera of procedure." - Variety
