True Romance

I just watched this film tonight, and after hearing how good it was, I was really dissapointed. I just never got into the story at all, maybe it was because Christian Fricken Slatener was the main character, and everything just wasn't all that interesting. Only bright spot was Brad Pitt as Floyd, man did he play a good stoner laughing

this was a fantastic movie, and christain slater, did a fine job with this one. his acting has sucked latley but his earlier works are fine. and Ture Romance is one of Quentins Scripts ever and Tony Scott did an awesome job. Christopher Walken was amazing, his dialogue with Dennis Hopper was QT classical. i cant beloieve you didnt like this one.

Don't get me wrong, it wasn't horrible, it just doesn't classify as a great movie as I had heard it was. The dialogue was great as usually is with Tarantino, but to me that's all it was, it didn't add anything to the movie as a whole.

Suit yourself, JM. I thought it was great, and one of Tarantino's better written movies, although it was a modern day "Bonnie and Clyde". The penthouse shootout was off the rictor, IMO. Talk about dedication, this movie was full of it. Lot's of great cameos, too, especially Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper.

And there is nothing wrong with a 'modern day version of Bonnie and Clyde' smile True Romance is wonderful, really enjoy the film.

damn good flick. Great for what is is. Any movie written by tarentino is bound to be somewhat decent

Well, someone else was in charge of adapting Tarantino's story for NBK to the screen. But, that's another movie.

Personally I liked natural born killers, it was trying to do something different, it may not have succeeded on all counts but was still good.

Yeah, but it was still written by QT and Rage said, "Any movie written by tarentino". But don't worry, I have faith in QT when he is more involved.

Director's Cut

WoW!!!

I've always loved this movie - In fact it is my all time favourite.

But, the director's Cut was like frostingon a cake..

And, I love frosting big grin

No shit.. This movie gets to me.. the scenes are some of my all time favourite scnenes..

What do I choose?

Dennis Hopper's brilliant scene where he knows he is gonna die.. And still he goes down laughing at 'em.. Damn!!!

The scene at Drexel's where Clarence( My pop's name - maybe it is subliminal ) tells Drexel, "I ain't afraid of you, I just don't like you!" Slam DUNK!!

So many fine actors and scenes that I could go on.. But, I won't :P

Is that the movie where Slater kills Gary Oldman over that chick he likes that was a prostitue or something, and then he goes and tells her what he did and she was happy and he was all beat up. Thats the only part i remember. I'm downloading it now. sounds like a good flik from what im reading on here..

I forget, it's been mad years since I watched it and when I did see it, I didn't get into it.
