A Good Murder

About This Movie

A Good Murder is an interesting blend of crime drama and romance that definitely tugs at the heartstrings while keeping you on edge. The film dives into the shadowy world of illegal immigration and the lengths one might go to escape a ruthless pursuer, in this case, a Russian mafia boss. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, swinging from tense moments to quieter, more reflective scenes as the protagonist navigates his feelings for an artist, adding a layer of emotional depth. The performances, though not from household names, manage to convey a raw authenticity that makes you invested in their plight. There's a distinct atmosphere here, with practical effects that ground the story in reality, making the stakes feel all the more real.
