Well-intentioned killing = violence against violence

Is preventive homicide wrong? Well, if I have the most advanced weapons in the world, I have the power to rule the world, but I cannot protect my citizens, that is my shame. Any form of security has to pay a price. Passive defense is stupid. Yes, only violence against violence can play a deterrent effect. I don’t need the understanding of the whole world, because I have paid a heavy price. I just need that when I kill, the people will understand us, if they need a conscience. In a better way, okay, it’s called a kind killing.

    There's nothing wrong with the plot, but there's no surprise, the main thing is that Ethan Hawke's acting is so good! Andrenico has really transformed in recent years... I still like him many years ago

Good Kill quotes

  • Tom Egan: I feel like a coward. Every day. Taking pot shots half a world away, sitting in an air-conditioned cubicle.

  • Jack Johns: The folks from Virginia operate under a different set of ROEs. They've progressed from what they like to call a "personality strike", where we know for sure the target is a fucking bad guy, and have come up with something they call a "signature strike". And what that fucking means is it's a hit based not on a suspicion of guilt, but on a pattern of behavior. So you may be called upon to fire on any dumb schlub in Waziristan carrying an AK-47, even though we all know that everyone and their mother in Waziristan carries an AK-47.
