“While Killer Elite does sport some decent chase scenes and meticulous action sequences, it’s resoundingly poorly conceived in every other aspect, most notably, the terrible screenplay. Jason Statham is not a strong performer, but is obviously good in action sequences. He’s saddled here with playing the assassin with a heart of gold. Killing obviously torments him, but since he’s such a good killing machine, he will never get away from “the life,” his loved ones always used against him to kill the enemies of many a nefarious figure the world over.”
