Movie Reviews of Natural Born Killers
Movie Review: One of my all time faves...
Summary: 4 Stars
What I love the most about NBK isn't the cast. I believe that too often, people see the cast and are disappointed in the movie. What really hooked me was the visuals of the film. It isn't like every other film, and when Quentin Tarantino's well runs dry, I'd love to see his version of the film. I really liked the varying camera shots and the animation. It does have kind of a music video feel to it. I also love the fact that something is ALWAYS going on, and it holds my attention, which is a good thing, seeing that I get tired of movies easily. I'm not necessarily the biggest fan of what American society has become over time, and truly appreciate the point of the movie that it tries to drive home. This film is a little cerebral, and may take more than one session to appreciate the film. It is definitely a love/hate film. Me personally, I love it. To the NBK haters out there, definitely give the film another try. I didn't really like Fear and Loathing when I first saw it, but I LOVE that movie. If you nitpick every part of the film, you have ruined it for yourself, because now there's nothing to enjoy about it, because it has been roughly criticized. Just sit back and enjoy the film. If you're into conventional film, and you want to see a dime a dozen picture, you have come to the wrong place. Sure it's a blood bath, but what's to be expected from a film called Natural Born Killers?
Summary of Natural Born Killers
Oliver Stone would like to have the last word on America's media culture of voyeurism and violence, but whatever he's trying to say in this grisly, unconventional movie comes across terribly garbled. Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis play traveling serial killers who become television celebrities when a Geraldo-like personality (Robert Downey Jr.) turns their madness into the biggest story in the country. Stone extensively rewrote an original script by Quentin Tarantino, and he employs a mosaic of different film stocks, video, and pop pastiches to create a sense of blurred lines between visual phenomena. (The background on Lewis's character's life as an abused child, for instance, is presented as a sitcom starring Rodney Dangerfield.) But the result of these experiments is a pompous, even amateurish effort at grasping the reins of a real-life national debate. One almost wants to tell Stone to sit down and raise his hand next time if he thinks he has something to say. The controversial director would like Natural Born Killers to be nothing less than a monumental achievement, but it's one of the emptier entries in his filmography. --Tom KeoghAction & Adventure DVD Video
