Movie Reviews of Killing Zoe
Movie Review: Improbable? Yes Great? Yes
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a bank heist movie. You know, there's a safecracker, blueprints, a plan. Problem is the gang doing the heist is made up of assorted druggies and wackos. Wackiest of all is the gang leader, Eric (Jean-Hughes Anglade). Anglade put about 200% into this role.
Injected into the robbery is Zed (Eric Stoltz), Eric's childhood friend. Apparently they were close, but they haven't seen each other in eleven years. Eric lives in Paris and he invites his American safecracking buddy to France for the big job. If the story seems to be thin, that's because it is.
Zed comes off as the "good bad guy" so adored by script writers. That is, he winches at random violence, but doesn't mind robbing a bank. In the film's beginning he hires Zoe, a prostitute. Turns out she is also an aspiring artist/part-time bank employee. She is very convincingly portrayed by Julie Delpy. The Zed-Zoe connection is at the heart of the matter.
I found the film to be highly entertaining. It builds to a powerful conclusion. There's a lot that is over the top and wildly improbable. But it still works.
