+ High Points
i – Two known faces that is Shafqat Cheema and Nayyar Ejaz are in the film.
+ Low Points
i – This film is the ugliest sight of ‘C’ grade Lollywood film making.
ii – I managed to watch this film properly till 30 minutes… in three days on a friend’s request/dare. The rest of the film was watched by skipping the scenes, especially the songs.
iii – Let’s say that The Killer is a clear sign that humanity’s doomsday is nigh.
iv – The film editing, the songs, the action scenes are just out of this world. Somewhere like in a ‘Black hole’.
v – If Shafqat Cheema is in a lead role, you know well where this film is heading to.
vi – After watching one-fourth of this film, I started to have suicidal thoughts.
+ Overall
The Killer is the worst of the worst… it’s horrible and unwatchable!
