Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

The Killer (2023)

The Killer: Of those who like to put their faith

Happy 62 to David Fincher today! Don't you feel as if this, his most recent film, remains tremendously underrated? (Here is my review of it.) A lot of people misjudged it as a simple exercise in style but I saw so much more rustling about in there and I hope it gets reappraised down the line. And when it does I will be standing there, a kind and generous smile on my face, saying, "I told you so." I really think it would be aided along if Netflix would let the movie get a physical media release though -- this movie is killing (hardy har see what I did there) to get a bells-and-whistles 4K release that would absolutely murder one's home theater system in the best of ways. Hopefully they'll let Criterion do it at some point. Anyway in summation here is a gif of Michael Fassbender taking his shirt off in the movie just because:
