Movies that feel likeKILL (2024)

When an army commando finds out his true love is engaged against her will, he boards a New Dehli-bound train in a daring quest to derail the arranged marriage. But when a gang of knife-wielding thieves begin to terrorize innocent passengers on his train, the commando takes them on, one by one.

If you loved KILL, the closest films we have are Twilight of the Warriors: Walled In (2024), Dhurandhar (2025) and The Roundup: No Way Out (2023). All three share KILL's kinetic and gritty feel, which is what we rank on before quality.

Seen the big three already? The under-the-radar pick below is The Plagues of Breslau (2018).
