*****
STORY.
The true story of Kuklinski, the notorious contract killer and family man. When finally arrested in 1986, neither his wife nor daughters had any clue about his real profession.
CRITIC VIEW.
Based on a real life crime story of Kuklinski's gruesome contract killings [more than 100] which shook America in 60's.
The film has outstanding performance by Michael Shannon [as Kuklinski] his expression and persona matchs the cold blooded Kuklinski with egregious blend.Also supported by Winona Ryder [wife] and Chris Evans,Ray Liotta as underworld don's is remarkable.James Franco in a blink and miss cameo.
Though documented on the Murder tales of Kuklinski's life Director Ariel Vromen has smartly shown the facts to engage the audience till the end in a impeccable style.
If you have patience and eye to understand a skillfully made real life movie, so this is not to be missed.
