‘The Kill Room Review: Samuel L. Jacksons Priceless Delivery Is The Chief Reward In Otherwise Unmemorable Dark Comedy

It would be surprising if Samuel L. Jackson's cinematic language hadn't inspired a film school graduate. Of course, we all know the greatest hits , including "And You'll Know My Name Is the Lord When I Take Vengeance on You" and my favorite song, "I've Had It With Those Fucking Snakes on This Fucking Snake." of the film, the airplane!”, who cannot be mentioned by name.

The new comedy-thriller, which stars Jackson alongside Uma Thurman ( Criminal Minds and Kill Bill: Vol. 2 ) and Joe Manganiello, features more programming material, although I'll be doing concept art, you ass! " and "Gernia in the supermarket!" will not erase anyone's memory of the above-mentioned gems. On the other hand, in the film, the veteran actor can be heard speaking Yiddish, making a nice comment about Alt -Cocker and saying, "Oy gevalt!" So we can't say that Killing Room viewers wouldn't get their money's worth.

Jackson's unique way of delivering dialogue is the main delight of this unforgettable black comedy, based on the satire of an art world that would have been outdated decades ago.

Manganiello plays Reggie, whose main method of killing his victims is suffocation with plastic bags. When he and his partner Reggie (Jackson), whose cover is the owner of a Williamsburg bakery (hence Yiddish), realize they need a way to clean up their ill-gotten gains, Patrice (Thurman) turns to Adderall . Tracking down the owner of a failed art gallery. It's just one of many infidelities that mar Jonathan Jacobson's script.

Dark plan: Reggie's customers pay Patrice in the form of art purchases. Since the plan calls for real works of art to change hands, Reggie begins creating them from the plastic bags he uses as raw material for killing people. Needless to say, the nickname "Bagman" became a phenomenon in the art world, selling original works to fans including a wealthy pair of art collectors (Larry Pine and Candy Buckley) who view his works as an aphrodisiac and appealing to the masses. Attention: An evil art critic known as “Kimano” (Debbie Mazar).

Although there have been many reports in recent years on conceptual art such as Maurizio Cattelano's "Banana on the Wall" and Banksy's "Printed Painting", Nicola Paon brings nothing to the satire of this comedy (" Friends Day "). New Earth And The Plot, in which Reggie and Patrice conspire to kill a Russian oligarch (Aleksandr Sokovikov) at a Miami art fair in order to relieve him of his illegal duties when he discovers the true nature of his criminal's activities, needs more time. wise, clever, clever

"Killing Room" is worth watching thanks to its protagonist's charisma: Thurman finds all sorts of funny ways to express his obsession, Manganiello revels in his understated macho charm, and Jackson does, well, things like his Samuel L. Jackson, but sports this time. really impressive beard.

A talented supporting cast regularly delights, including Maya Hawke (Thurman's daughter), New York theater veteran Matthew Maher, Jennifer Kim and Drey Hemingway. But their efforts aren't enough to make the heavy mix of brutal violence and general humor palatable.
