Watch Headshot Movie Online No SurveyA darkly turbulent crime noir from Thai new wave director Pen-ek Ratanaruang, Headshot is an existential thriller, ripe with shadowy paranoia that will turn your world upside-down, literally. This disorienting game of cat and mouse is played out in present-day Thailand, where corruption runs rampant and the good die young. When Tul, a straight-laced cop, is blackmailed by a powerful politician he soon becomes disillusioned by the state of human nature and, in his vengeful condition, is recruited to become a hitman for an iconoclastic group aimed at eliminating those who are above the law. But when a devastating blow turns Tul's vision upside-down, he finds himself engulfed by doubt, unaware of whether the condition is medical or a result of karmic retribution. -- (C) Official Site Release Date Headshot Sep 28, 2012 Limited | |

Review For Headshot | |
While there are some great twists and revelations here, I just kept wishing it would stop with all the cinematic tricks and get to more conventional, straight- forward storytelling. Doug Knoop-Seattle Times A dreamy, elliptical neo-noir about a cop turned killer turned something else altogether. Manohla Dargis-New York Times Neither fresh nor especially satisfying, but Ratanaruang distinguishes the hunt with his fluid kineticism, especially in the just-a-touch-too-infrequent shoot-outs and beatdowns. Alan Scherstuhl-Village Voice Its vision of contemporary Thailand is recognizable as another society undeserving of redemption, but worthy of poetry. Eric Hynes-Time Out New York If the titular headshot leaves Tul with inverted vision, the film too turns the characteristics of genre upside-down, defamiliarising everything - an effect that is helped considerably by Ratanaruang's way with moody stylisation. Anton Bitel-Little White Lies The visual contrast between the ultraviolent showdowns and the quieter, more character-driven moments is striking. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com This Thai crime thriller has some novel ideas and is strikingly shot, but a jumbled, overreaching narrative robs it of cohesion. Adam Ross-The Aristocrat Headshot is, unfortunately, far better with ideas than with narrative. Alison Willmore-AV Club This "Buddhist film noir," as writer-director Pen-ek Ratanaruang calls it, is surprisingly slow-moving and soulful for a film full of double-crosses and cold-blooded killing. Elise Nakhnikian-Slant Magazine A crisp crime thriller with a perfectly calibrated atmosphere Tom Clift-Moviedex It's wholly unfair to judge a movie on what it could have been, but few films place their potential on a pedestal and fail to engage it like Headshot.
