The Killer
1989
Mob assassin Jeffrey is no ordinary hired gun; the best in his business, he views his chosen profession as a calling rather than simply a job. So, when beautiful nightclub chanteuse Jennie is blinded in the crossfire of his most recent hit, Jeffrey chooses to retire after one last job to pay for his unintended victim's sight-restoring operation. But when Jeffrey is double-crossed, he reluctantly joins forces with a rogue policeman to make things right.

My notes
Phenomenal film. This was technically my first viewing, but the impact of this film into other media is so broad that most of the parts were so familiar that it felt like a reviewing.
I can see this one becoming a regular viewing.
