Killing Them Softly








Feels like a very lightweight Goodfellas in tone, but also has a back-alley Sopranos feel to it, and not just because Gandolfini is in it. Speaking of which, his brief scene(s) are the best part of the film, which is about as interesting the dialogue gets. The film itself isn't particularly entertaining or interesting itself, and I'm sure there's some sort of political message underneath it all but I don't care enough to find out what it is.

Richard Jenkins feels wasted here, and I don't think I've ever seen Brad Pitt play someone who's not a total dick.

5/10
