Kill or be Killed (2005)

[Robizdamanwitdaplan]

Wow, excellent work Chris! One of your best pieces! :)

[jweinrub]

Nice job man!

[jovenalcala]

Were they talking in different languages? Seems the hit man in Japanese and the target in Chinese.

[LightsCameraAaron]

This movie remined me of the movie MICHEAL CLAYTON. (I liked KILL OR BE KILLED better!) It was a lot more interesting. 5 OUT OF 5!!! =-)

good movie

[TreLore]

Damn that was good. Very good. I know you going to make it Big very soon. You should be the guy directing JLA and the other movies

[MGJ198674]

In deed, its very good fellas!

[archydagr8]

that was shit.. he should of died.... with at least 10 bulet hole's in his body

[wnsk]

love the noir effect. excellent casting, as always, 'specially the japanese dude.

[mrpreacher]

Great script, now I'm fan of your work !

[fallenteen]

WOW. Absolutely great, man. I've been a fan since I watched some of your DC stuff, but I'll be damned if this wasn't one of the most engaging dramas I've watched. I'm not gonna lie-you've got talent, man. SERIOUS talent, and a great eye for cast and crew.

Keep up the fantastic work, man. Oh, and as good as your horror/comic stuff is, I would love to see more drama. You do it well.

Well, you know I'll be looking forward to Methodic...

thank you so much.

Wonderful Editing, Good actor chemistry, The cinematography was a little bland but I liked what you did with the close ups and the hand held. The ending was slightly anti-climactic for such a tension holding story. Perhaps next time have a shocking ending...

The guy gets in the car, kisses his women, turns the keys, and a real hit man sits up in the back saet with a 357 magnum and a silenced cult. and the guy who let him go gets kidnapped and butchered but still living an opening for a sequel...

[blinky500]

well thats all nice and gory, but it kinda goes against the "happy" ending i originally wanted.

[StarofDavid]

right, that's why I said it... I'd just Have a happy ending in the sequel...

good work tho

[chinamanli]

i could actually see this as a full length feature. very good! ending kinda disappointed though. like...everyone lives happily ever after? this was dramatic, yes, but usually the kind of drama that truly sticks out for me would be the ones with a tragic ending. you know what i mean? sorry...im not good at describing crap.

but definately a good short film you got there. btw love all your work!

[blinky500]

i just felt we needed to see a happy ending. its not uncommon. the movie was about people doing the right thing, and since both guys did, there was a happy ending.

cheese burger

fukin white washed lol

Good dialogue... I just wish it would have had violence. It had suspense, but that is worth nothing without the violence

[codeagent47]

crazy

[toya903]

its japanese

[blinky500]

there are 3 languages in this film. the hitman is speaking japanese. the other guy is speaking mandarin and the guy in the car is speaking cantonese.

[bobbylucifer]

the assassin & restaurant person are definitely speaking japanese & i think the other guy is speaking mandarin - no korean there!

[PharohAmonKhan]

Ameleration. Why can't the world find compromise like this?

[blinky500]

its meant for the american audiences who cant tell either of these languages apart. good ear though.

[Psyburn]

1. The intro seemed fast paced and epic, while the scene after that seemed to slow things down alot. Not sure if it's just me.

2. The language selection prevented me from fully enjoying the movie. One is speaking Mandarin, the other Korean, and the restraunt person Japanese. It was too noticible and again, it prevented me from fully enjoying this.

Very very good job. Other than that I loved it.

[Psyburn]

Very nice intelligent film. It was very well done, and the introduction just brought me in. A few things.

[XanatharEye]

excellent. the nuances are spectacular. dialouge is near perfect. very well done. i love the waitress. i thought they were speaking chinese, too, then i heard the waitress say "hai". .....the assasin is good at looking flustered buy not deadly, he is the weakest actor, but STILL very good. excellent movie. i lived it. so much e tter than hollywood i mean that. soundtrack really spot on.

[RoseJeide]

I really enjoyed this. Were they speaking Chinese and Japanese? How did they understand each other?

[anihistoricasian]

Wow.
