Killer Joe Storyline

When a debt puts a young man's life in danger, he turns to putting a hit out on his evil mother in order to collect the insurance.When a debt puts a young man's life in danger, he turns to putting a hit out on his evil mother in order to collect the insurance.

I have been anticipating Killer Joe for a while now, it reminded me of No Country For Old Men, it looked like a gritty thriller, made even more interesting with the casting of Matthew McConaughey in the lead role, a man I associate with poor romantic comedies that usually star J-Lo Killer Joe movie

User Reviews

The story is set in Texas and concerns a young man Chris (played by Emile Hersch), who, owing money to local gangsters, decides to hire a Hit-man aptly named ''Killer Joe'' (McConaughey) to kill his mother and claim life insurance. Yes. His own Mother. Chris is also, with the agreement of his father and step-mother, allowing his sister to be ''kept'' by Joe as a means of initial payment for the killing. Basically, the most dysfunctional family ever. But things turn even more sour soon, as we see all is not as it seems with the deal.......

Firstly, acting in this film is great, McConaughey is convincing as a killer with authority, as is Emile Hersch as the redneck son who will do anything for money, both actors seem to be optimistically intent on getting an Oscar. The pace of the film is very slow and tense, it engages the audience and blends the violence with a lot of dark comedy, which I liked. If anything, the major flaw is the story itself, which starts off well but soon becomes chaotic and confused, as if they cut out loads of scenes and randomly stuck the rest together to save time. However, for the most part  Killer Joe works as a good and enjoyable film. Only avoid if you are offended by graphic violence/nudity.

On April 2nd 2011, LCD Soundsystem played its final show at Madison Square Garden.

The instantly sold out, near four-hour extravaganza did just that, moving the thousands in attendance to tears of joy and grief, with New York magazine calling the event "a marvel of pure craft" and TIME magazine lamenting "we may never dance again." Documenting this once in a life time performance and an intimate portrait of James Murphy as he navigates the lead-up to the show, the day after, and the personal and professional ramifications of his decision.On April 2nd 2011, LCD Soundsystem played its final show at Madison Square Garden.Shut Up and Play the Hits Documenting this once in a life time performance and an intimate portrait of James Murphy as he navigates the lead-up to the show, the day after, and the personal and professional ramifications of his decision.
