Stanley Kubrick's The Killing is a clever and brisk crime film with plenty of twists.

This taut crime picture was one of the earliest films in the career of Stanley Kubrick, but something of the director's voice and characteristic preoccupations are already evident here. Feb 5, 2015 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

At 27 Writer-Director Stanley Kubrick, in his third full-length picture, has shown more audacity with dialogue and camera than Hollywood has seen since the obstreperous Orson Welles went riding out of town on an exhibitors' poll. Aug 3, 2011 | Full Review…

Characteristically Kubrick in both its mechanistic coldness and its vision of human endeavour undone by greed and deceit, this noir-ish heist movie is nevertheless far more satisfying than most of his later work. Feb 9, 2006 | Full Review…

Underneath The Killing's clockwork violence is a pungent layer of irony, something Kubrick would further explore many times later in his career. Sep 14, 2013 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review…

A brisk, satisfying film noir that features all the details of a racetrack heist gone wrong - even if the timeline is all shuffled out of order. It's thick with atmosphere and razor-sharp dialogue. Oct 27, 2011 | Rating: 3.5/4 | Full Review…
