Verdict on King of Killers
King of Killers is an action thriller following a group of assassins recruited to play a deadly game. They are assigned to kill the deadliest assassin, so he can prove nobody can touch him. However, the rules of the game aren’t fair, and the assassins must learn to adapt to his twisted game.
This is an action movie that relies on the big fight sequences between the assassins. It includes the wild traps which leads to the games being played to give one man an advantage. This all feels extremely strange as it ends up feeling more like an introduction to something much bigger. It has a nice cast but leaves you wanting more than we get.
Where to Watch
Final Thoughts – King of Killers is a fun late-night action movie.
