Rating: 7 out of 10

oblivion_ver3 (1)And how can man die better
Than facing fearful odds,
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods.

At first glance from trailers and teasers, Killing Them Softly looks like a slow-moving film with a couple action scenes here and there, with nothing much to offer to the moviegoer audience.
