Over deze film

The Iceman is the story of real-life mob hitman Richard "The Iceman" Kuklinski, who was reportedly responsible for over 200 murders. Richard Kuklinski (Michael Shannon) and his wife Deborah (Winona Ryder) appear to have a model American life, living with their three children in an idyllic suburban ranch house with a big lawn on a quiet street. But unbeknownst to Deborah and the kids, when Kuklinski goes off to work in the morning — or, on occasion, in the middle of dinner or the middle of the night — he is carrying out executions at the behest of the Gambino crime family, employing a wide variety of deadly methods (guns, knives, explosives, strangling, poisonings) that make it difficult to trace all the fatalities to a single killer. The Iceman shows the development of Kuklinski's career from the 1950s through the 1980s, chronicling his friendship with Gambino soldato Roy DeMeo (Ray Liotta), his mentorship under assassin Robert "Mister Softee" Pronge (Chris Evans), and his troubled relationship with his brother Joseph (Stephen Dorff), who, like Richard, was plagued by sociopathic tendencies all his life. - 2012 KILLER PRODUCTIONS, INC.

This film is by far the best I've seen in years! The portral of Kuklinski's role as a family man whilst being a cold hearted killer is played by Michael Shannon in a way that can only be desribed as genious. You genuinely believe that Kuklinski whilst being a monster, has family values that most should aspire to. Shannon is in my eyes one of the most underrated actors of the 21st century after seeing this!

Really well made and interesting film. The acting was good and story had a lot of tension. If you liked Goodfellas you will enjoy this.

Shannon is sensational. (As always). Check out "take shelter" also if not seen it.
