Normally, when I see a movie poster that calls a movie “brilliant”, “gripping” or a “classic”, I’m a bit hesitant. It’s just so blatantly generic. But when I see a poster that says Brad Pitt is “at the top of his game”, I’m a little more intrigued. What can I say… I’m a fan. Too bad the quote is from somebody I never heard of.

In Killing Them Softly, Pitt stars as Jackie Cogan, a professional enforcer who investigates a heist that occurs during a high stakes, mob-protected, poker game. Richard Jenkins, James Gandolfini and Ray Liotta also star. Check out the poster below.

Killing Them Softly opens October 19th.
