Critics Consensus: Killing Them Softly is a darkly comic, visceral thriller that doubles as a cautionary tale on capitalism, whose message is delivered with sledgehammer force.

Reviews

Deep Focus Review

Brian Eggert

Although it’s bound to be divisive for its unconventional structure, ruthless tone, and the cynical nature of its message, Killing Them Softly is a rare, exceedingly enjoyable, bleakly comic noir story.

A dirty, furious little gangster flick with as much to say about capitalism as it does how futile a life it is to live in this world.

...ahead of the curve in terms of portraying the inherent nihilism of today's society...
