Review: Killing Them Softly

In "Killing Them Softly" Brad Pitt plays Jackie Cogan, an enforcer hired to restore order after three dumb guys rob a Mob protected card game, causing the local criminal economy to collapse.

Set in 2008, much of the movie has audio from the US political and economic news going in the background.

This isn't that great of a movie, and doesn't have much of a reason for having been made.

The first part of the movie is filled with vulgar language, to a gratuitous degree. After that the movie does get a little better, but not a lot.

If I hadn't seen it for free, I would've wanted my money back. Consider yourself warned.

The only redeeming qualities were the soundtrack and the first murder scene. The cinematography used in that scene, is actually pretty amazing.
