About This Movie

Dusk for a Hitman is a gritty dive into the underbelly of 1979 Montreal, crafted by Raymond St-Jean. The film expertly captures the tension of a world where loyalty and betrayal dance on a knife's edge. Donald Lavoie, played with a steely resolve, embodies the seasoned hitman navigating the murky waters of organized crime, while the younger Serge Rivard, with his reckless bravado, serves as a stark contrast—his impulsivity bringing chaos to Lavoie’s calculated existence. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the suspense to build as their relationship unfolds, and you can really feel the weight of each decision. Practical effects add a raw realism that enhances the film's atmosphere, making it a noteworthy entry in the crime-thriller genre.

Strong performances, especially from the lead duo. · Atmospheric visuals that reflect the grim setting. · Intriguing character dynamics that keep you engaged.
