Just finished watching 'The Killer' after reading your review, and I must say, it's quite the cinematic experience. While I didn't delve into it as deeply as you did, the portrayal of the killer as someone who just goes about their job without empathy struck me. Killing seemed almost routine for him, yet the theme of seeking freedom added a layer of intrigue.
Point about the need for deep analysis in movies is something I pondered as well. Do we really have to dissect every aspect, or is it a matter of personal interpretation? Personally, I saw the character as someone lacking empathy, unwilling to give a second chance, perhaps driven by the fear that emotions could hinder success.
The movie made me reflect on how we all, in a way, become instruments for our jobs. Similar to the killer being used for tasks others can't handle, we too are often employed for responsibilities our employers prefer not to deal with. It's a fascinating parallel to normal society. Overall, 'The Killer' had me contemplating the intricacies of its characters and their roles long after the credits rolled.
