Pete is handsome

The whole film presents a retro tone, a dark sky and a faded picture. The whole story is nothing more than a few gangsters robbed the mob's casino, and then they couldn't find the murderer, so they let the casino owner die. And the intervention of professional killers will cause even greater bloodshed.

After reading it, I don't think it tastes much, but I think about it carefully, a gentle killing. Pete's performance is really cold enough, gentle enough, perfectionist, never indulging in trouble, and neat and tidy.

In the United States, you can only live for yourself~

    Another chattering movie. Originally, I liked this style. It has some of Gary's tune and Pete on top, but the whole movie is really boring.

    Compared with the sharpshooter, this comparison can only be a "sketch". The meaning of metaphor is too strong to be called a metaphor. When I read the lines for the first time, I thought it was good, and the pun used was really good, but when I read it for the second time, I found that many places were actually a little contrived. But the ideological core is still awesome, still better than most movies in 2012. Another problem is that it doesn't inspire emotions, which is the biggest gap with the sharpshooter

    Jackie Cogan: I like to kill them softly, from a distance. Not close enough for feelings. Don't like feelings. Don't want to think about them.
