Overview
In the dark underbelly of a recession-era America, trust is a rare currency. Ölni kíméletesen (internationally titled Killing Them Softly) is a sleek and visceral crime drama that explores the collapse of order within the criminal world. When three low-level hoods pull off a high-stakes heist at a mob-protected poker game, they inadvertently trigger a total economic shutdown of the local underworld. Brad Pitt stars as Jackie Cogan, a cynical and professional enforcer hired to restore "market stability" by tracking down the thieves and eliminating them. This Hungarian edition captures a film that serves as both a brutal thriller and a sharp political allegory about the nature of modern capitalism.
Magyar Áttekintés: Amerikában csak magadra számíthatsz. Három kisstílű bűnöző kirabol egy maffia kártyabarlangot, amivel nemcsak a helyi alvilágot, hanem a gazdasági egyensúlyt is romba döntik az Ölni kíméletesen című filmben. A maffia Jackie Cogant (Brad Pitt), a profi bérgyilkost bízza meg a rend helyreállításával. A történet egyszerre feszült krimi és éles társadalomkritika, amelyben olyan neves színészek tűnnek fel, mint James Gandolfini és Ray Liotta.
