Everything about this film reeks of Tarantino, but it does not deliver as one, and I was left disappointed. Had he directed it himself, the movie would have the same legendary status as Pulp Fiction by now. The suspense just doesn't come across rightfully. Also, the music editing is done horribly amateurish and distracts from the movie a lot. The only thing right about True Romance (aside from its script, obviously) is the epic cast; Slater and Arquette are especially brilliant and carry the entire film. All in all, still an enjoyable movie, but could have been much better.
A lovely film about youth, friendship and imaginary worlds which I absolutely adored. Only English schoolboys can be so cheeky and charming at the same time. Despite the lightheartedness of this film, it is moving and endearing all the same, which is what made me love it so much. Simple yet sweet.
Quirky indie at its best; most definitely the best I have seen in quite some time. Goofy virgin guy who falls in love with tough independent chick? Check. Most awesome day job ever? Check. Tacky 80s clothes? Check. Fantastic soundtrack? Check. Hot married guy for the finishing touch? Ch-eck.
