Eh - it's not bad. It's a bit...disjointed for my tastes. They've
got the setting down pat, the characters have real potential, but
the story seems a bit rushed.

Ah. The Killer is awesome. This film is definitely worth the time
and money - the style may not be to everyone's tastes, but the story
has substance. You've got to love the last scene or two... :-)
