I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Lack of good storyline.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.
Great crime drama written by Tarantino. Features an all-star cast in a movie so full of cool, interesting and just great characters that I wish many of them had much more screen time! The dialogue is absolutely brilliant, as expected, and there are many standout scenes! Story is kind of a brutal take on an American dream, maybe? It's an action/romance with some black comedy in the mix. Very entertaining and enjoyable! Features a really good soundtrack!
After watching this movie, I immediately felt like watching it again. It has a good mix of comedy, drama, action, suspense and of course ROMANCE. Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette are both very likeable and sympathetic. Has a lot of cool cameos from Hollywood A listers and a great performance from James Gandolfini who is as intimidating as ever. Overall give it a watch.
True Romance is obscure film. Film was unfortunate to come at the time in which huge blockbusters and award winning film were slowly coming to screen, there of it was forgotten. All people to who I recommended this film never heard about it, and when they saw it, they only have one word: SUPERB! Tarantino who decided to split Natural born killers and True Romance scripts (which ere basically same script ) made terrifying job at it, but real star behind film is late Tony Scott. Without a doubt, this is best film Scott has ever made, and that can be seen in whole film, from cast to score and even ending which is best thing that Scott decided to do, despite Tarantino's wishes, but even Tarantino himself was pleased at the end of it. Scott gave himself into the film and created cult masterpiece that will never be forgotten. Cast is terrifying. Cristian Slater before he become second rate actor and Patricia Arquete had believable chemistry on screen which made whole film. Supporting cast including Gary Oldman ( In his best role ever put to screen), Christopher Walken, James Gandolfini, Denis Hopper not to mention others, made beautiful ensemble cast which was not very well known at the time, but today, they are all first class actors. I could write about this film for hours, but in the end I can only say that watch this film and enjoy one of best films ever made. Live fast, die young, be a ice looking corpse!
True Romance is a really great movie. Wonderfully directed by the late Tony Scott, exquisitely written by Quentin Tarantino and brilliantly acted by the amazing ensemble cast that includes Patricia Arquette, Christian Slater, Dennis Hopper, Val Kilmer, Gary Oldman, Brad Pitt, Christopher Walken, Samuel L. Jackson, James Gandolfini and many others. The power of the movie is truly the fantastic dynamic between the two main characters, Alabama Whitman and Clarence Worley. Also, I have to comment on the beautiful and memorable soundtrack that the great Hans Zimmer composed.True Romance is a fantastic movie and a must-see for every cinephile!
