Good lord this was a terrible movie.

The dialog was pointless and full of cliche lines, fight scenes were hard to follow (in particular, the hospital fight was very choppy and filmed too close), the love interest was worthless and just slowed things down, and the plot turns on a killer getting a conscience.

Oh yeah, and it's way too long.… Expand

Absurd, completely bollocks and boring. Those were the three things in my head when the credits rolled (BTW the best part of the movie, IMHO).

The story, character decisions are completely senseless. Jason Statham "acts" and looks the same as in almost every previous movie he appeared in; De Niro has something of 45 seconds of screen time; as opposed to the previous two, Oven manages to defend his role; the characters are generally shallow; handguns tend to fire something around 30 rounds per clip... The list is long. There are that many pros for this movie to make it entertaining. That's too bad, because the round-up of actors was something of a good promise for this one. What we recieved is yet another moneymaker...for the actors.… Expand

Killer Elite is a bad movie. It is a pulpy, cheesy, bloody action thriller, that bores rather than thrill. The story, set in the vivid streets of Oman and England, the movie switches places quickly.

The story, set in the vivid streets of Oman and England, the movie switches places quickly. The spy suspense, is just people saying smart stuff, to make them look smart. The truth is, this film is not smart. It is a dumbed down version of Bourne meets The A Team. The story is even worse, a guy who hires Jason Statham to kill guys who killed his three sons, so Jason can get his friend- Robert De Niro. I didn't even get their names, because all the characters muttered swears and British slangs throuought. There is little action to cheer about, there is guns and blood, and sometimes it doesn't even make sense. Clive Owen looks worse than ever in his role about a guy who wants to chase down the guy who works with Jason Statham. It is confusing, it's a movie you should not watch or care about, it is on Netflix and DVD. But some stores have hidden it, so nobody even looks at this turd.… Expand

A typical statham actioner which outstays its welcome by a considerable margin. The plot becomes messier and more confused the longer the film runs and it is actually quite sad to see the type of film Robert DeNiro is now relegated to playingA typical statham actioner which outstays its welcome by a considerable margin. The plot becomes messier and more confused the longer the film runs and it is actually quite sad to see the type of film Robert DeNiro is now relegated to playing in. Clive Owen seems to be taking the whole thing seriously and it is left to Statham himself to provide any semblance of entertainment from the tiresome proceedings.… Expand

Mit Abstand der größte Müll der Statham jemals hervorgebracht hat.
Der Beginn ist ein großes Feuerwerk aber dann verkommt der Film zu einem sinnlosen Actionspektakel. Handlungsstränge werden sinnlos aneinander gereiht und ergeben somit null Sinn. DeNiro muss dich nicht mal anstrengen und dementsprechend lustlos spult er seine Parts ab.

Den Film kann man nach 20 Minuten getrost abschalten. Reine Zeitverschwendung.… Expand
