Killer Elite, Guy McKendry’s high-octane, adrenaline pumping, testosterone fueled extravaganza starring His Stubbleness, Jason Statham, Robert DeNiro and Clive Owen and his evil ‘tashe, is just over the horizon at this point so expect the clips to come at us fast and furious from now until September 23.

This clip, called “Pronto”, is perfect. It gets us going with a high speed car chase and then cuts out just when you want to know what happens next.”Always leave ‘em wanting more.” (That was either Walt Disney or P. T. Barnum. It’s a mystery. Either way it fits.)

Based on a true story, Killer Elite follows Danny Bryce, a former member of Britain’s Elite Special Air Service, who is called out of retirement when his mentor (De Niro) is taken hostage. His assignment is to find and kill three assassins sent by their “cunning leader”, Spike (Owen). Spike’s a good name for someone with that ‘tashe.

By the way, our fearless leader gets to see this at TIFF and I am PEA GREEN with envy! The rest of us plebes will have to wait until Killer Elite opens on September 23 in the US and the UK.
