Directors Kimo Stamboel and Timo Tjahjanto aka The Mo Brothers who also created another classic flick, Macabre 2009 have created a gem in Killers.Starring Kazuki Kitamura who has been in other classic serial killer flicks, Kill Bill: Vol. 1 2003 and Kill Bill: Vol. 2 2004 as well as other classic flicks, Azumi 2003 and The Raid 2 2014.Also starring Oka Antara who has been in another classic flick, The Raid 2 2014 with Kazuki Kitamura.Also starring Ray Sahetapy who has been in another classic flick, The Raid 2011.I enjoyed the violence.If you enjoyed this as much as I did then check out other classic serial killer flicks, Maniac 2012.

Two men from different cultures, a journalist investigating a corrupt rich man in Jakarta, and a banker turned serial killer from Tokyo meet in a chat room and form an unholy alliance. The Japanese man abducts and tortures women on camera and uploads them on to the internet. The Indonesian writer becomes fascinated by the videos, and through a series of events becomes a killer himself. The movie switches back and forth between the two characters in a fairly seamless fashion. The acting is excellent, with vivid camera work, but be warned of some explicit and bloody violence. It runs a bit too long at two hours and eighteen minutes, but I still recommend Killers as one of the better films of 2014.

this is not a bad movie at all,but it has too much flaws to be a great movie. when i first see the movie backdrop,it sounds very bloody and macabre-ish,but it turns out wrong. this movie is too violent and bloody for mainstream audiences,but too soft for slasher hardcore fan. its like somewhere in the middle. i think mo brothers wanted to disturb the audience by its story rather than the killing scene itself. to me its like a drama movie with serial murder spice in it. don't get it wrong,its good and refreshing since I've never seen things like this in local box office and pretty rare in Hollywood,but Mo Brother failed to hold the tension,this movie gives you a good chills and fun discussion after watching it but obviously far less powerful than Snowtown, (an Australian serial-murder drama,most disturbing movie I've ever seen). i think k.kitamura and o antara saved this movie,their acting skill is top notch and the major high light in this movie!,and im glad im gonna watch this duo again in the raid 2! :D

Too much violence, disturbing and overlong makes Killers hardly to watch for audience who seeks entertainment. It gives an uncomfortable feeling during seeing it especially for those who couldn't stand bloody violence and torture things. Some scenes are also quite silly that makes me confuse how this material comes from The Mo brother's. Fortunately the movie is saved by convincing performances from Kazuki Kitamura and Oka Antara. Especially for Kazuki Kitamura, he seems enjoying his role as a psychotic fearless killer and somehow succeeded to annoy audience with his brutal gesture. Perhaps Killers is not bad and still above average Indonesian movie that only offers immoral sensuality and horror. But with inappropriate torture and some disturbing violence scenes give the movie unacceptable to see for audiences except for the genre fans.
