Movie Reviews of True Romance - Director's Cut (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Movie Review: A good escape from reality movie.
Summary: 4 Stars
Now that I can go back and watch this movie over and over I can see how utterly ridiculous the plot of the movie is.
I won't give anything away but this movie is so unrealistic it's almost unwatchable.
Why am I giving it four stars then?
Its fun, it's fast, it's got some great actors.
Gary Oldman anyone?
One of his best roles ever as the drug dealer Drexel.
The action is almost nonstop and the script is fast paced, exciting and funny in some places.
Is it a romance movie???
I'd say...........NO!!!
There's nothing romantic about this movie, so for everyone who is saying this is the best romantic movie they'd ever seen????
If this movie is what you consider romantic then your personal lives must be VERY scary indeed!!!
That and I could have done without the OVERUSE OF HOMOPHOBIC SLURS!!!!!!!!!
That is really what kills me most about this movie.
It's old, it's tired, shut it already!!!
I'll recommend this movie for action fans, and people who are not easily offended as there is a ton of violence and gore and well........everything else that offends is in there too.
Oh and one more thing,Brad Pitt is amazing and DID NOT get enough screen time. Otherwise......
A classic? No.
Worth a rental?
Yup.
Summary of True Romance - Director's Cut (Two-Disc Special Edition)
It was directed with energetic skill by Top Gun Tony Scott, but this breathtaking 1993 thriller (think of it as an adolescent crime fantasy on steroids) has Quentin Tarantino written all over it. True Romance is really part of a loose trilogy that includes Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction, with a crackling Tarantino screenplay that rides a fine line between raucous comedy and violent excess. Christian Slater plays Clarence, the comic-book lover who meets a beguiling prostitute named Alabama (Patricia Arquette), confronts her vicious pimp (Gary Oldman), and embarks on a cross-country odyssey with $5 million worth of Mafia cocaine. Mayhem ensues, culminating in a favorite Tarantino climax--the "Mexican standoff"--in which a roomful of guys are pointing guns at each other, waiting to see who shoots first. Brutal, profane, and totally outrageous, True Romance is not for everyone, but with a supporting cast that includes Dennis Hopper, Christopher Walken, Brad Pitt, and Val Kilmer (as the ghost of Elvis!), you can be sure this movie will never be boring. --Jeff ShannonThis rock'n'roll adventure story tells of two unlikely lovers who accidentally double-cross the Detroit mob by stealing valuable contraband. Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette, flee to Los Angeles where they are sought by both gangsters and cops.
