Despite having the great Michael Ironside and the equally great M. Emmet Walsh as brothers (now there is an interesting combination!) this film seems much longer than its 94 minutes with a winding plot concerning photography, revenge, brotherly love and a politician leading to a predictable climax. It is tedious and our hero Max Oliver is dull. This is a shame as he is played by John Pyper-Ferguson who is a decent actor. The script is lame. One kept asking oneself, why doesn't he do that or that or that? It was filmed flatly with boring visuals though the last location scene was set by a very picturesque waterfall, the only interesting looking thing in the film. There probably was a music score but I can't remember any of it so little impression did it make. A forgettable film.

This Canadian movie is a pretty standard early 90's thriller. It's truthfully pretty pedestrian in most ways but it does benefit from the presence of genre legend Michael Ironside and respected character actor M. Emmet Walsh; both of whom play a pair of brothers, whose bad actions get the film's plot underway. The story is essentially about a professional killer who seeks incriminating photographs which are in the possession of a man whose brother he murdered. This leads to all manner of unreasonable behaviour being carried out by out pony-tailed psychopath.This is not a particularly well written film. It is not, for instance, especially clear why the pivotal murder even happens in the first place. And characters continue to act in illogical ways throughout the story. In fairness, it's not the first thriller to succumb to this, so it's hardly a deal breaker. It is a bit lethargic though and really only comes to life when either Ironside or Walsh are on the screen. So, not an awful lot to recommend here but at the same time it does get the job done, it just does it with the minimum effort.

If you love Michael Ironside, you'll love Killer Image. If you hated this movie, you must not like Michael Ironside or Canadian films.He plays a hit-man for a senator, his brother. He ends up having to execute the senator's secret girlfriend, and gets caught in the end. Of course the sexy Ironside, ever so the bad guy in this film, gets killed. Be careful when you go into the Canadian woods...He dresses to kill and makes me hot. Damn, I'd get banned if I told you all what Michael Ironside does to me every time I see this movie.Yeah, some of the film is disjointed, but it does have a plot. It is a Canadian film, so it has an edge American films do not. Michael Ironside looks so dangerous and sexy at the same time.This movie has violence and sex in it too for all you sickos. Enjoy.

Why is it that Canadian-made movies are so wooden?The script of this movie has potential but it just doesn't work. I think it may be the editing. There is no pacing. The scenes just move along without any buildup of tension.The movie includes two experienced actors, Michael Ironside and M. Emmet Walsh, with Ironside taking the lead as the anti hero.Nothing really happens to make the movie interesting. The hero, John Pyer- Ferguson is unimpressive; the dialogue is boring and the plot is predictable and moves like molasses. Even the color was washed out.I started to watch this movie on the late show and got so bored that I ended up surfing the Internet at the same time and felt that I missed nothing.
