Killing Them Softly: A Review of the Full Movie Free

During the American financial crisis and presidential election campaign of 2008, Johnny “Squirrel” Amato plans to rob a Mafia-controlled private poker game. He enlists Frankie, a former business associate, and Russell, a heroin-addicted Australian immigrant who steals purebred dogs to sell in Florida. They target a game run by Markie Trattman, who is known to have previously orchestrated an inside job by paying two men to rob his own illegal poker game. Squirrel anticipates that Markie will be the obvious suspect, and the crime syndicate Markie is involved with will simply have him killed without investigating further. Though obviously inexperienced, Frankie and Russell successfully carry out the armed robbery, and escape with around one hundred thousand dollars.

Plot Twist: A Mob Boss’s Dilemma

An enigmatic criminal boss named Driver discusses with hitman Jackie Cogan on how to deal with the situation created by the robbery: mob-operated poker games have stopped as players fear more violence, throwing the underground criminal economy into chaos. Although Jackie correctly intuits Markie was innocent, he believes Markie needs to die regardless: since he still looks guilty, if no example is made it would encourage further robberies by street-level thugs. Driver pushes back strongly on having Markie murdered. Jackie reluctantly agrees to only having him beat up by mobsters Steve and Barry, but remarks it is just going to cause Markie unnecessary sufferings.

Final Showdown and the Meaning of “Killing Them Softly”

Before Jackie gets to him, Russell is arrested on a drug possession charge. Meanwhile, Jackie confronts Frankie and convinces him to trade Squirrel’s whereabouts for his life. Jackie has Frankie drive him to where Squirrel will have his regular rendezvous with a woman, and he kills Squirrel with a shotgun. After confirming Squirrel is dead, Jackie has Frankie drive him to get his car several hours away. Frankie becomes very nervous and begins speeding. Unable to calm him, or get him to slow down, Jackie takes over driving. Once they arrive at the parking garage, Jackie shoots Frankie in the head without warning. Jackie wipes down the car and leaves the scene.

On the night of the presidential election, Jackie meets with Driver to collect his fee for the three hits. On the TV in the bar, Barack Obama is giving his election victory speech. The two argue over his fee, with Driver trying to pay a lesser amount and Jackie insisting on the full sum.
