David Fincher directs this story of unnamed assassin who is out for revenge. He botches a job and bad people come to his sanctuary. He goes out for payback. The film is all very predictable, but it so well crafted you follow along. Michael Fassbinder plays the assassin and narrator who gives you a running commentary about why things are done a certain way. It's amazing how much tension is built during the course of the movie.
There are car chases and fights and clever dialogue but it all seems kind of fresh in this incarnation.
Unfortunately, the ending sucks. 98% great film. I expected something else to happen before the fade to black.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
