The Killer Elite is an action thriller starring James Caan and Robert Duvall. It tells the story about two secret agents who are working for the Killer Elite, an elite force of FBI hitmen. Duvall steals money from the government and shoots Caan; after nearly healing from his injuries, Caan is sent on his next assignment, which involves dueling with Duvall, as well as being double-crossed.

The film is regarded as one of Sam Peckinpah's weaker efforts. The screenplay's lack of character development and predictable story are the most common complaints. Nonetheless, some critics have noted that the film's action sequences are shot and edited with a little of the flair typical of Peckinpah's earlier action films. The film climaxes in a shootout on the deck of a ship between ninjas, Yakuza and mercenaries led by James Caan.
