If you loved Killing Them Softly, try Chopper

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Chopper has roughly 5.8× fewer votes than Killing Them Softly — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Andrew Dominik, and they sit in Crime / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Killing Them Softly, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Chopper is

Spring sun glints off razor wire at Pentridge Prison. A gangly man in a suit grins, gold teeth catching the light, while recounting the last time he held a knife. Visceral 70s pulp meets slow-drip menace, told with too much swagger to trust.
