Watched a couple of such movies back to back. ippo enakke enmela doubt vandhuduchu :?
The Killer Inside Me - Casey Affleck is a deputy at the Sheriff's office. He has some old grudges and uses a prostitute (Jessica Alba) as a pawn to get his vengence. But he hasn't committed the perfect crime and has to commit more and more crimes to cover it up.
Casey Affleck was very good as a sociopath and he might even get an Oscar nomination. The way he has portayed his mind deteriorating (or true self resurfacing) after beginning his relationship with the prositute is good. The movie contains explicit scenes and some very tough-to-watch scenes like face battering,etc.
The Killing Jar - In a small town roadside hotel, Michael Madsen gets mistaken for committing a crime (murdering a family) he apparently didn't. Enraged by this, he takes out a couple of people and takes the remaining people as hostages. As he knows that the killer is amongst them, he puts them in the hot chair and tortures them to get the truth.
Though they tried to maintain the suspense about the killer, it was pretty obvious from the beginning (suspect the most innocent logic :D). The ending was also largely predictable. Madsen gets a Madsen's role and he gets through without much effort. Apart from him, the movie is not really engaging.
Groucho, any comments on Road to Perdition? I am thinking of watching this movie for the last 2 months, but the thought of Tom Hanks as a hitman puts it at the back of the list :DQuote:

The young son is quite good too. Harmonious marriage of Conrad Hall's visuals and Thomas Newman's BGM on a solid story based on a slightly bleak (Spoiler: In the film, Michael Sullivan Sr succeeds in the end as Jr. doesn't turn out to be an 'accomplice' in such vengeful violence. Therefore, he dies peacefully - Hanks does well in this scene. Now orphaned, the son joins the old couple in the farm. His dad could rest in peace. While in the comic, Sr fails a bit with regards to son) flashy (that would translate to action filmmakers like Ringo Lam or John Woo on visual terms - On the contrary, Mendes conventional old-house style works) comic, that is resonant to Parker Series ("The Hunter" in particular) and "Lone Wolf and Cub" series. I'd recommend the film wholeheartedly.
For a few dollars more
