Anyhow, this film is director Alexander Payne (Nebraska, Election) and actor Paul Giamatti’s (John Adams, Private Parts) second time working together.

“The Killer” is the best revenge film set to a killer score that you’ll ever see. It sets up his character with exceptional visuals and superb cinematography. The story isn’t trying to tell the same tale in the same fashion. It’s more unique. The Killer says that being a hitman is physically exhausting and not for everyone. He has a lot to say about a lot of things, actually. But indulge me a moment and allow me to suggest that what I would like to say is that this movie is for everyone. Everyone who digs this genre.

I’ll try and write this review without telling you anything that will ruin it for you. I’ll start by saying this is an epic, one you can’t miss. Curious about what was meant by “Flower Moon,” I looked it up. The Farmer’s Almanac began to name the full moons in the 1930s. The name given by American tribes to the full moon in May was the “Flower Moon.” The flowers blooming across North America, signaled the abundance and the coming of Spring after a cold, hard winter. This is important in this story, but I can’t tell you why.
