RIP Tony Scott. So many great movies. 'You're so cool.'

The Tony Scott / Tarantino episode of "Seinfeld".

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

This is a wild ride. At times you can DEFINITELY tell that Quentin Tarantino wrote this. No doubt needs more Brad Pitt and Samuel L. Jackson

Just after the opening credits of True Romance reads "Directed by Tony Scott," Patricia Arquette walks into the theater, stumbling upon Christian Slater as they start a Street Fighter trilogy marathon. As I sat in the theater, gazing upon this scene imprinted on 35mm film, it was an experience like none other- almost metaphysical in its likeness- as if Scott had deliberately intended the audience to become pulled into this wild and engrossing adventure of love on the run that was about to ensue. And in that moment, as a wandering elderly couple walked into my theater just after this scene began, it became clear that this was exactly what was happening to me. Scott had successfully ensnared my senses and attention into his masterful world that he and writer Quentin Tarantino had built from their love of the art, and I couldn't have asked for a better way to appreciate the wonderfully versatile world of cinema as a whole.

True Romance is one wild, crazy and hilariously savage ride. Yet, I finished the film feeling unfulfilled. Although, that just might be the point.

The Awesome: The writing and characters are absolutely impeccable. There is a scene in this film involving Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper, and it's pure gold. You can just tell these actors are savoring every line of dialogue, because they realize that this screenplay is simply brilliant. The direction by Tony Scott (RIP) is also wonderful, adding a crazed and stylized look to a film that works really well.

The Terrible: It feels very light, with very little substance. Awesome characters? Check. Incredible dialogue? Check. Stunning cinematography? Check, check, check. Yet, at the end of the day, it's like a great toasted sandwich with no meat. But man, that bread tastes great.

Overall, True Romance has enough style and great characters to carry it to the finish line. It's a healthy recommendation.

WHY is this the best love story I’ve ever seen 

tarantino cannot be human HOW DOES HE DO IT

also I think letterboxd is broken they’ve listed christian slater in the cast but clearly the main character was played by jack nicholson

This is obviously a film written by Tarantino, I could tell from the one scene that uses the n-word like 20 to 30 times. The score is strange for this film, it’s always paradise-like and the vibe of the film doesn’t fit it. The title and genre speaks for itself. It’s about a two lovebirds trying to run away. The dad from Good Luck Charlie is in this so that’s cool. I wonder why Bead Pitt and Christopher Walken we’re credited in the opening credits so early, they were barely in this film. The violence is fine, it’s not as bad as most Tarantino films but then again it’s not directed by him.

WOW!

True romance more like true

Had to watch something fun right away bc Brokeback Mountain got me saaaad, sad as hellllll

This is one of those movies I could watch over and over, probs on repeat

I won't lie to you, I only watched this because the Robbers music video was heavily inspired by it, but anyway I’m not disappointed.

an entire movie filled with minor characters. lotta cool dudes just hangin around this movie. bob duncan?!?!

Watched for Scavenger Hunt #69

21. Watch a film from ... Tony Scott.

This is just about everything you can ask for in a pulpy romantic thriller, and what a joy it was. The script was absolutely airtight had Tarantino’s fingerprints all over it (complete with plenty of references to Classic Hollywood, a stylized violent climax, and quips about cheeseburgers), but Tony Scott’s direction and Hans Zimmer’s lovely percussion-heavy score gave it an 80s-glazed sweetness that Tarantino usually won’t touch.

There was a smorgasbord of acting talent packed into this cast that is honestly difficult to comprehend. Brad Pitt as the oblivious stoner, Christopher Walken at his most menacing, and Michael Rapaport as Michael Rapaport were highlights, but Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette were the perfect leads to carry this project.

I bow at Tarantino’s altar

wtf is this movie? And WTF is the little kid xylophone that haunts this movie!?!?!

and he’s got his gun, and he’s got his suit on
and she says, babe, you look so cool

loved the way that this somehow managed to seamlessly combine a love story with the most wild and outrageous violence, so cool.

simply awful

Solid early Tarantino take on Harold and Maude. Would be 4* if not for the gratuitous N words and sexualized brutality which just feels off 20 years later. Then again that’s What he does, maybe it just wasn’t the right day for me to see this one.
