I find the title of this film to be ironic. There is no soft killing in this movie, only flat out graphic killing with blood spurting and flying. One scene features a man being beaten up and the blood literally pours from his mouth and nose, he coughs up blood, and then vomits to boot. He vomits on the man who was punching him so the man becomes angry and punches him some more. One man is shot and his coat is a bloody mess and then Jackie Cogan (Brad Pitt), who is an enforcer, shoots him in the head. Cogan is hired to settle things down after three less-than-brilliant guys rob a Mob-protected card game, causing a lot of unhappiness among criminals over their deflated economy.

The other disturbing thing about this movie is the language. There are so many uses of the F bomb that I quit counting after twenty minutes. It’s as if the writers were lazy and just wanted to keep writing down the F word or other foul language. The film is pretty depressing. The only thing even remotely amusing is that Pitt’s character insists on his friend leaving a dollar tip for the waitress right before he goes out to murder someone. But barrels of laughs this movie is not and neither is it remotely family friendly. Skip this one like you would the plague. I can only guess Brad Pitt was short on a few million dollars, otherwise why he chose this movie to act in I have no clue.
