An Exercise In Nonsense

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

To me, this will always be the quintessential Tarantino/Scott movie. Loved every frame

This film is the perfect storm of action, crime, witty repartee and of course ROMANCE. Such finely crafted characters, each one brimming with their own breed of passion, all told through the grotesquely beautiful Tarantinon lens (he wrote this). The Mexican standoff at the end is a tribute to every great celluloid standoff before it, where the stakes are raised to never before seen heights. This film keeps you laughing, crying and wincing throughout, with the most eclectic and talented cast to date.

Visionary director Tony Scott brings an early Quentin Tarantino script to life. The cast is beyond amazing (Christopher Walken, Dennis Hopper, Gary Oldman Samuel L Jackson & more) especially the leads that play an amazingly lovable couple, the dialogue is witty and smart (some of Tarantino's best), the violence is bloody and realistic, plus plenty of dark humor. What else could you want in a movie? Side note: apparently Brad Pitt's stoner character was the inspiration for "Pineapple Express".

Watched this for the first time last night and it's one of the greatest movies I've ever seen. You can tell it was written by Quentin Tarantino and if you didn't know otherwise you'd think it was directed by him too. Every character is brilliantly portrayed. Even supporting actors that only have minimal screen time such as Christopher Walken, Dennis Hopper and Gary Oldman give very memorable performances and have some of the best scenes in the film. Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette both give Oscar worthy performances in their lead roles. True Romance has the perfect mix of great dialogue, romance, action and strong violence. Without spoiling the ending, what I really wanted from this film was a satisfying ending and it delivered %100. Some scenes will have you laughing out loud while others while have you on the edge of your seat with tension. I don't really see the point of casting Brad Pitt in such a small and unimportant role when any actor could of filled the role but this in no way hinders the enjoyment of the film. The film also has a great soundtrack which I listened to straight after I'd finished and has a good mix of different genre's. True Romance is an astoundingly exciting film and would probably be best enjoyed by fans of Tarantino but I would recommend this film to anyone. Give this film a watch ASAP.
