The Kill Room is a 2023 dark comedy thriller movie directed by Nicol Paone and starring Uma Thurman, Joe Manganiello, and Samuel L. Jackson. The movie follows an art dealer (Thurman) who teams up with a hitman (Manganiello) and his boss (Jackson) for a money-laundering scheme that accidentally turns the hitman into an overnight avant-garde sensation, forcing the dealer to play the art world against the underworld¹³⁵. The movie is set to release on September 28, 2023 in the US¹⁴.
My review of the movie is based on the trailer² and the IMDb rating. I think the movie has an interesting premise and a talented cast, but it also seems to have some flaws. The trailer shows some scenes that are supposed to be funny, but they are not very original or witty. The IMDb rating is only 5.5 out of 10, which suggests that the movie is not very well-received by the audience. The critics’ reviews are also mixed, with some praising the movie for its dark humor and satire, and others criticizing it for its weak script and direction¹.
Overall, I would give the movie a 6 out of 10. It is not a bad movie, but it is not a great one either. It might appeal to some fans of dark comedy and crime thriller genres, but it might also disappoint others who expect more from the actors and the director. I would recommend watching the movie if you are curious about the plot and the performances, but I would not expect too much from it.
