Killshot, directed by John Madden is a movie about an iron worker Wayne Colson (Thomas Jane) and his soon to be ex-wife Carmen Colson (Diane Lane) witnessed a crime being committed by Armand The "BlackBird" Degas (Mickey Rourke) and Richie Nix (Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Arman is a hit man for the mafia and kills everyone that witness's any of his crimes. He teams up with Richi after tries to kidnap him and rob him because he looks like his younger brother.
The original script of this movie had to be strongly edited because it got brutal reviews in prescreens. That being said this movie reminded me a lot of "No Country For Old Men". The entire movie is spent with Armand and Richie trying to track down and kill Wayne and Carmen Colson. With a lot of violence in between.
Mickey Rourke's character was amazing to watch. You never knew what his next move would be. He was a very dark character and they leave you guessing about what his life was like in the past. If it wasn't for Rourke this movie would have not been as good for sure.
Richie Nix did a great job at portraying just a white trash punk, who treated everybody like crap and is worthless to society. As I was watching this I just wanted "The BlackBird" to kill him.
Now I thought the movie was pretty good. I really enjoy these dark movies with a lot of violence. I especially love Mickey Rourke as an actor. There is not much to the plot. So if your into violence and mayhem you should enjoy "Killshot" if not I would definitely pass.

Thank you for voting. If your vote meets our 
Excellent movie.
) Mickey Rourke is famous for playing these kinds of roles and
again he has out done himself. This is a great suspense movie
with an all star cast.

Mickey Rourke and all supporting actors and actresses are top notch in this cat and mouse thriller. Little scenes in this movie, ie, the mother's back going out and a killer gives her a massage instead of wasting her, make this a gem.
