Based on a graphic novel by Kevin Grevioux -- who here takes on directional duties -- this action flick is under no pretensions about what type of movie it is.

2.5/5

King of Killers is a swift and bloody actioner that goes in a surprisingly unexpected direction. Frank Grillo steals the show with a deliciously exaggerated performance.

2/5

... what should be a clear-and-cut action extravaganza finds itself weighed down by the insertion of several emotional stakes whose compounded efforts make the journey more of a slog than a driving force.

King of Killers is a terribly conceived mess with bad acting and a nonsensical plot about an assassin overlord pitting other assassins against each other. For an action movie, there are too many scenes of people having boring and witless conversations.

B-

Frank Grillo is the main attraction, and the actor shows up his fellow costars in this solid action movie but the film suffers from some corny and on-the-nose dialogue.

3/10

I did not expect Oscar-caliber acting but hoped for at least a few competent action scenes. Sadly, King of Killers disappoints in every way.

Acho que os atores foram pagos com pão e água e fizeram o filme com a maior falta de vontade, n m vou fala da direção ou edição porque são bem piore que os atores.

I expected this to be bad, like any of the last 10 movies Bruce Willis made, but it's actually a better movie than those. Fight sequences, story, drama - it's a good action flick, worth a watch. I know I'm definitely looking forward to the sequel. Kudos also to the director who I think did a better job than some of the more experienced B-action movie directors (like those who did the last 10 Bruce Willis movies, lol).

The world's top assassins? The worst one's I've ever seen. It was fairly amusing but in the end it was all a little bit silly.

If you like action, guns-martial arts this is your movie, I thought it was fantastic and the ending leads hopefully into a sequel !
