Killing Zoe Trailers

Zed is an American vault-cracker who travels to Paris to meet up with his old friend Eric. Eric and his gang have planned to raid the only bank in the city which is open on Bastille day. After offering his services, Zed soon finds himself trapped in a situation beyond his control when heroin abuse, poor planning and a call-girl named Zoe all conspire to turn the robbery into a very bloody siege.

A different way of telling a story

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

I HATE Tarantino movies. of course this was directed by somebody else but it's so close. however, do you like BS movies? how about junkie movies? what about junkie movies with guns? yeah if you are a nutcase who gets off watching a bunch of idiots shooting at innocent/random people then this is for you. I will not bore you however with what this trash is about though the story sucks. it's stupid and very boring.

Zed (Eric Stoltz) has only just arrived in the beautiful Paris and already he is up to no good. Having just slept with a call girl (Julie Delpy), he spends a night on the town with his dangerous friends. They all decide to rob a bank the following day. There is only one problem: Zed's call-girl, Zoe, just happens to work at the bank which is to be robbed! I believe this film comes from the same guy who wrote "Pulp Fiction", and the similarities are evident. Although the first half is a strange romance-turned-heist, the film gets increasingly violent as it carries on. This is very much the same style as "Pulp Fiction". (Both also feature Eric Stoltz.) Julie Delpy is interesting here. Although she is more or less reduced to a secondary character, it is interesting how she was something of the "it girl" as far as French women in American movies were concerned. She was not the first or the last, but it seems that at any given time there is always one French actress who is the standard for appearing in American films.

Killing ZoeSince banks aren't open past 5 p.m., if you're a moonlighting bank robber, you're going to have to take time off work.Fortunately, the bandits in this bank heist were born into a life of crime.In Paris to assist his old friend Eric (Jean-Hugues Anglade) with a job, American safecracker Zed (Eric Stoltz) kills time with a prostitute, Zoe (Julie Delpy), whom he shares an instant rapport with.The two lovers are later reunited when a masked Zed holds up the bank where Zoe works. Compelled to protect her from the erratic Eric, who has instigated a gunfight with Paris' finest, Zed puts his lifelong friendship with Eric as well as his own life on the line.Truly a hidden heist gem, Killing Zoe is an innovative and intriguing investment that gains greater interest with each viewing. However, robbing banks is now futile since no one has any money. (Green Light)

Killing Zoe revolves around Zed who was invited to Paris to contribute in a bank robbery.Unfortunately that's all the story plot contains. Rest is all about unnecessary violence which really don't make any sense.There's been also some scenes of drugs depiction and consumption.Also there is no twist in storyline,weak plot and very predictable.The only strong link of the movie is the presence of Julie Delphy who looked extremely charming.Its obvious to expect more from this movie but it do not stands anywhere around its expectations.
