Ben Kingsley is the most likeable Hitman ever, this film has such a subtle humour to it, it?s strange to say, but it has a feel good factor about this film.
A great performance from Kingsley as always and a good performance from Tea Leoni.
It?s not the type of comedy where ...( read more)
You Kill Me is an odd little black comedy that could've been a hell of a lot more if it wasn't so uneven and sometimes... mediocre. When it was on it was gold but when it was off, the word unremarkable is a very polite way to put it. Ben Kingsley was great and his backup from the...( read more)
Very average black comedy that wastes a potentially brilliant premise. The comedy is scarce, the acting is just alright and Ben Kingsley totally phones in his performance as the alcoholic hitman. Didn't really hold my attention and even the usually lovely Tea Leoni came across as...( read more)

This film is actually quite good, very cynical and ironic, but it's not a killer. Won't kill anyone after seeing it, of course.

Given a choice between a dark film with comic elements and a comedy that purports to be edgy, the filmmakers took the easy way out. full review
In the moment, You Kill Me is never less than mildly entertaining, and it's almost never more than that. full review
One of those quirky little movies that thinks it is much smarter than it actually is. For a fine Kingsley fix, rent 'Sexy Beast' instead. full review
This droll combination of coldblooded murder and romantic comedy uses Ben Kingsley's renowned intensity to uproarious effect. full review
