HKFlix Says:	The definitive Chow Yun Fat/John Woo film. A masterpiece.
Avg. Rating:	4.9 / 5 (based on 34 ratings). What did you think of it?
Plot:	Action-packed and extremely stylish, "The Killer" marks the third collaboration between John Woo and Chow Yun Fat. Chow plays a hired killer who blinds a singer, and then takes a few more jobs so that he can pay for her eye operation.
Overview:	When Jeffrey, a hit man, accidentally blinds a young nightclub chanteuse, his guilt makes him leave the racket to take care of her. Falling in love with the vulnerable singer, he eventually agrees to do one last hit to raise the money needed for a cornea transplant that might restore her vision. His assignment is to assassinate mob leader Tony Weng during the crowded Dragon Boat Festival. The hit is successful, despite all the police protection, and he almost gets away. But a child is injured during his escape, and Jeffrey nearly gets caught while taking the time to drive her to a nearby hospital for medical attention. Because his identity was revealed while saving the child, the new crime boss now wants him killed. Refusing to pay him for the successful hit, he puts a contract out on his life instead.
