Paceless, without suspense and baring only brief traces of empathy, featuring an awkwardly stiff Caan (sporting the same perennially smug, curling smile Mickey Rourke deployed inYear of the Dragon) and the oddity that Duvall's character disappears for most of the film, The Killer Elite takes on an unusual tone of weary disinterest in its own proceedings: danger that doesn't seem dangerous, experts who seem inept, passion that barely raises the pulse.
