Summary
Brad Pitt delivers an explosive performance as Jackie Cogan, an enforcer for the Mob in Andrew Dominik's gritty yet stylish crime thriller KILLING THEM SOFTLY. Cogan must restore order in the criminal economy after a Mob protected card game is heisted by a group of inexperienced crooks. Nominated for the Palme d'Or at the **Cannes Film Festival**. "*Jolting, suspenseful, full of twisted sympathy for its goons' row of characters, and wickedly amusing to boot, Killing Them Softly summons up the ghosts of Goodfellas and a whole nasty tradition of crime pics.*" - Steven Rea, ***The Philadelphia Inquirer***
