Title: True Romance
Post by: abrader on February 04, 2008, 11:22:02 AM

I watched this gem lastnight.

I just now got round to it.

I thought it WAS VERY GOOD for 1993.

The ending fell flat a bit as im not a fan of those final "everyone offs everyone showdown scenes" where 3 or more conflicting parties showup blastin with innocents in the middle (smoking aces)...I think all the slo motion makes me feel anxious.

The movie needed more fucking Walken - altho that girl/boy scene with Mr. Soprano was >better than decent<.....the other gangsters were forgettable - looked like some of wo-fats doods off of Hawaii 5-0.

Slater always annoys me - its his characture like face.

Pitt was good - I loved when he

tries to pass the gangsters the honey bottle bong

I am also surprised that they didnt blow that guy away (pitt's couch guy)

I do not think I care to watch again or own it - but I liked seeing it.

I have n idea.

She looked like a gen-fem in the flikk....atho I wouldnt suspect WB would be so experimental in 93.

No, that's her brother.  Patricia Arquette's starring in some TV show now...Medium, I think it's called.  She basically ruins every scene of True Romance she is in.  Awful actress.
