Entertainment Reviews:
3 stars out of 4 -- [A] potent provocation that keeps gnawing at you. Ethan Hawke digs deep and gives one of his best performances...
Rolling Stone
[A] timely meditation on the mental and emotional costs of remote-control warfare.
Washington Post
This is a step in the right direction for [Andrew] Niccol.

The Stranger (Seattle, WA)
Rating: 1/5 --
The audience seems likely to leave feeling scolded or pandered to, depending. Not a great time.

San Diego Reader
Rating: C+ --
"Good Kill" is darkly enlightening, but it's not really all that good.

Detroit News
3 stars out of 5 -- The ease of execution is terrifying. Niccol keeps the combat scenes credible, tense and harrowing...
Total Film
Good Kill gives a better window into the mind of a modern combatant and entices more emotional connection from the viewer than most war movies.

Product Description:
Andrew Niccol's 21st century war drama GOOD KILL stars Ethan Hawke as Air Force Major Thomas Egan, a talented pilot who spends his days operating a drone over various terrorist threats in the middle east while sitting in a trailer on a base in Las Vegas. Egan hates not being allowed to fly actual planes anymore, and as the CIA begins dictating orders to Egan and his crew, he begins to feel morally disconnected from his job. This leads to more conflict at home with his wife (January Jones), who wishes her husband could focus on their family as much as his military duty. GOOD KILL screened at the 2014 Toronto International Film Festival.
