The young writer-director-photographer-editor of this un-promisingly titled film has a good deal of talent.

Kubrick's second feature shows his promise as a powerful and iconic director in motifs and style.
October 3, 2007 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review… -
Kubrick's low-key lensing occasionally catches the flavor of the seamy side of Gotham life.
May 8, 2007 | Full Review… -
A noirish thriller with experimental trimmings that holds back most of the emotions, sensitive as well as otherwise, that threatened to make Kubrick's first feature mawkish.
February 12, 2007 | Full Review… -
Kubrick makes the most of flashback and dream sequences, and a surreal climactic fight in a warehouse full of mannequins.
February 9, 2006 | Full Review… -
Kubrick worked in an uncharacteristically naturalistic style despite the genre material, with mixed but still fascinating results.

4d agoThis is essential viewing for fans of Stanley Kubrick. The then young and inexperienced filmmaker makes plenty of mistakes with storytelling and production techniques, but the talent still seeps through every frame.Aldo G Super Reviewer

Nov 28, 2012A very well shot noir story, with some beautiful scenes, like the ballet scene, the last fighting scene amongst others, with a story that's a bit too simplistic but works for the most part. Feels more like an exercise for Kubrick's to perfect his technique rather than anything else but it works and is a welcome addition to his upcoming masterpieces.Francisco G Super Reviewer

Oct 11, 2012I don't think it's fair just because Kubrick was a young director that's an excuse to over rate this film. Romero, Nolan, and Richard Kelly had possibly there best works in there debut films. This was just wasn't great, Kubrick used some intresting techniques, by just shooting street props for moments of time, but that's not reason to make it fresh. For a 67 minute film it sure is dry, and I for the life of me can't understand what was attractive about that selfish lady, she was just as bad as the one from The Killing. There were also some very clear plot holes in the screen play, ones that were easy to spot too.Daniel D Super Reviewer

Aug 04, 2012It's understandable why "Killer's Kiss" is left out of the conversation when people talk about Stanley Kubrick. It's his most unremarkable outing; a film that's greatly lacking in several crucial aspects. Poor acting, shallow writing and a painfully slow pace contribute to the film's overall blandness. The photography and editing are unique in places, but for the most part, "Killer's Kiss" is forgettable. I understand that it was a low-budget venture, but since when does having a low budget call for poor craftsmanship?Stephen E Super Reviewer
