Stu O @Gebargably Feb 2 It's a bunch of dumb rednecks beating the hell out of each other. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as there are times when watching a bunch of dumb rednecks beating the hell out of each other is a dandy thing to do. So if dumb rednecks beating the hell out of each other is a thing that is missing from your life, this film will certainly solve that problem, which is good, because it's unlikely to help with any other problem you may have.

Not for everyone, be advised it’s NC-17 for a reason! See more james l Sep 8 Gave it about half an hour and switched it off. Just couldn't get interested in this. See more nick s @Nick_S Sep 4 Great production value. The cast was excellent and so was the directing. My only gripe would be the edginess - nudity, violence, language, drumsticks. It was okay but didn't always feel necessary. See more Stephen C @bob25009 Aug 31 Success in 1 hour and 41 minutes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See more Dave S Jul 25 While the first half of director William Friedkin’s career was pretty impressive, things dropped off significantly over the second half, eventually wrapping up his career with the controversial and grimy Killer Joe. Matthew McConaughey plays the title character, a quietly menacing police detective who makes money on the side as a hitman, hired by a squalid and dysfunctional family to kill the matriarch for the insurance money. McConaughey is great in the lead role and most of the supporting cast is outstanding, but Emil Hirsch, playing the wayward son and catalyst for the murder scheme, seems totally out of his league, sucking the energy from most of the scenes he’s in. While Killer Joe is generally well done (with a more than memorable final scene), you’ll need a shower to scrub off the vileness that the movie leaves behind. See more Read all reviews
