THE KILLER* (Theatrical Release Brazil 2016)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.6|5.0 Starsììì

The Killer demonstrates what a movie might be like if Quentin Tarantino and Sergio Leone combined talents to make a western film. This Brazilian western renders violence and sex to highpoints that make it difficult to watch. It seems to exceed an R-rating.
