The killer film review :

This film is release with mix reviews and also Box office India declared flop movie.

Critics reviews :

• Priyanka Jain from rediff.com rated the film 2.5 star out of 5 star and stated that "The Killer is An okay Collateral film copy,The dark element of the film is very well brought out as it is shot mostly in the nights. However, the scenes towards the end of the movie are very loose and unimpressive. They lack the skill needed to wind up a story.The only song that really had my foot tapping was Hibbaki. To borrow an Emraan line from the movie, 'correct bolun toh' the Emraan-Irrfan duo get 100 out of 100, and the film gets just 50."
• Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama gave 2.5 star out of 5 star and Criticize the film by stating that ” Emraan is adequate in the initial portions, but comes in form when he starts confronting Irrfan. He is admirable in the sequence with Zakir Hussain. Irrfan is splendid all through. The eccentric character has been portrayed with gusto by the actor. His dialogues, at places, will be greeted with a thunderous applause.Nisha Kothari doesn’t get a chance to display histrionics, but exhibits her anatomy nonetheless.Zakir Hussain is powerful in that single scene. Avtar Gill and Bharti Achrekar are satisfactory.THE KILLER is an absorbing fare that should appeal to lovers of thrillers.”
• Times of India user's gave 3.5 star from 5 star.
• IMDB Public reviewing site give 4.7 star out of 10.
