Old School Mayhem, Yeah?
5 March 2024
"We Still Kill the Old Way" is not just a title, it's a philosophy. A way of life, even. If so, then this fine guy-flick is an outstanding rendition of "the way", old- vs new-style.

This is an excellent film. Fine editing and photography, directing and dialog. The actors on both sides create compelling, empathetic characters. You'll love the "good guys" and hate the "bad guys", but, of course, they are ALL bad guys!

Some are just worse than others. Sure, the new generation is full of lip and spunk with a determined absence of humility and respect... Sure, the old generation is dapper and refined with an abundance of gentlemanly swagger... but which will prevail when "it" hits the fan?

This film's central message might be "don't kill old folks". You never know who his/her brother or sister might be.

And that antique hand-powered drill? Yeah, I think we would all prefer the modern, electric version when push comes to shove (or murder comes to vengeance). Less suffering, you know.
