Killing Them Softly follows professional enforcer, Jackie Cogan (Pitt), who investigates a heist that occurs during a high stakes, mob-protected, poker game.
The movie is actually only worth that short synopsis. This movie was basically two things. A LOT of talking. And then a lot of hipster, gangster cleanup type stuff. This movie felt like it was trying too hard to be hip/cool. Kind of like Snatch or RocknRolla. There was the dark designs and the non-stop dialogue. There was Brad Pitt looking like a bada$$ cleaner. The look was definitely there, but the substance was pretty much non-existent.
I wouldn't recommend people wasting their time with this. Its pretty much one of those movies that is just there and looks good appearance wise but that is about it.
