Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Michael Ledo The film starts out with a plot and semi-subplot. Marshall (James Trevena-Brown) is a quiet guy who helps people in distress and is a hitman after dropping out of acting school. He works for Dario (Dallas Barnett ) who doesn't want him to date his niece Annabella (Renee Cataldo) at least until after he is dead.Lee-Seng (Rob Young) is contracted to kill the contact killers and Dario. Being a contract killer is great work. You get to wear all black with a restrictive black trench coat, sunglasses at night to impede your vision, and no gloves so you can leave your prints all over the crime scene. And most of you work takes place at night in no security parking garages and abandoned warehouses.The plot was fairly straight forward. No fancy twist or heavy thinking. The acting was stiff, even for an action film; not Seagal stiff, but fairly bad, especially Kerry Glamsch who played Callahan.Watchable if free.Parental Guide: F-bomb. Stripper nudity. No sex.
Leofwine_draca CONTRACT KILLERS is a generic indie action film that hails from New Zealand. The plot is about a greenhorn hitman who finds himself targeted by a veteran assassin, with a battle of wits between the pair ensuing. It's a film bogged down by dark, cheap photography throughout and the usual indifferent performances and predictable scripting that this genre is known for. The one highlight is that the actors show off some good moves in the fight scenes, but these scenes are spoilt by a cameraman who shakes his camera around for no reason whatsoever. A static camera combined with precise editing would have produced better results.
judgejon99 See the beginning, sleep, wake, turn off...if only I had done this...So we see a very predictable plot unfolding before our eyes, the acting is almost wooden...there is so much gun fire from guns which seem inexhaustible of bullets...we see armoured men blasting away with machine guns, unable to hit a barn wall...the "kung foo" action sequences are staged...not amasing...this is what I would describe as a "B" movie, the one before the main feature...to give it a 2 is actually more than deserved...To sum up is what I said at beginning, see the beginning, fall asleep, wake turn off...don't waste your time or money going to see a film which perhaps should not have made it from the cutting room floor..
Eric Bakker Contract Killers (2012) is a good action film for those who like fast cars, guns and martial arts fighting scenes. Good camera work and nice music score to go with it, nice build up of tension towards the end with a couple of nail-biting moments thrown in for good measure.I'm looking forward to what Director Mat Pearson will come up with in the future, this enthusiastic and talented guy shows a considerable amount of promise in the film industry in the future. To be able to produce a quality film like Contract Killers on such a tight budget makes me think that his films will be totally awesome when he has some serious funds to play with.
