A perfect film in my opinion. Not sure why all the negative reviews. It was stylish, dramatic, action packed, thrilling, funny, well directed, and well written. Whats not to like?

Domino is one of the finest films that I have had the pleasure of viewing, I get the impression that many professional critics do not have the smarts to follow less conventional narrative.

Tony Scott was an excellent action director before his untimely passing. He gave a unique sense of power and effort to what could have otherwise been a by-the-numbers action film. Instead, fantastic performances by Mickey Rourke, and KeiraTony Scott was an excellent action director before his untimely passing. He gave a unique sense of power and effort to what could have otherwise been a by-the-numbers action film. Instead, fantastic performances by Mickey Rourke, and Keira Knightley highlight the unforgettable, tense scenes. Unfortunately there's quite a bit of what might as well be flash photography interspersed throughout the film. It's incredibly jarring and unnecessary. But overall, for a film centered on a female bounty hunter, it certainly managed to keep my interest.… Expand

I found it visually stunning; the convoluted application of hues came across compellingly and the variety of angles and motion speed combined with the starkly contrasting locations left a vivid impression long after leaving the theatre. The I found it visually stunning; the convoluted application of hues came across compellingly and the variety of angles and motion speed combined with the starkly contrasting locations left a vivid impression long after leaving the theatre. The characters, on first impression imaginatively stereotypical developed nicely and consistently. The actors clicked brilliantly, namely the main trio, and the supporting roles were aptly cast. Dialogue managed to be humorous, profound, and simplistic all in turn. The score lent itself brilliantly and memoriably to the film. The quality of this production becomes more apparent with each viewing. I highly recommend it.… Expand

Great direction, flawless acting, numerous unpredicted twists and non-stop action, make this movie great. Ive watched it 3 times, and each time its better. A few parts of the movie could have been done without, but overall, this movie was a Great direction, flawless acting, numerous unpredicted twists and non-stop action, make this movie great. Ive watched it 3 times, and each time its better. A few parts of the movie could have been done without, but overall, this movie was a joy to enjoy. Dont miss it, and dont fall victim to over-criticized and anti-action writers from no-name magazines and papers. Keep in mind, they loved "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" if that gives you an idea where their minds lay.… Expand

I only know Tony Scott's work from his last few films, which I both enjoyed. Even though the trailer was pretty incoherent and smug, I was still looking foward to seeing it. But then the reviews came it, and everyone seemed to hate it, I only know Tony Scott's work from his last few films, which I both enjoyed. Even though the trailer was pretty incoherent and smug, I was still looking foward to seeing it. But then the reviews came it, and everyone seemed to hate it, critics and movie goers alike. So I went into it expecting a 2 hour version of the trailer. But the final film was a lot more coherent than I expected. I didn't just not hate it, but really enjoyed it. It makes me question whether or it's me or the general public that needs to smarten up. Despite what everyone says, I found the plot really easy to follow, and the ridiculous elements that I'd heard about, like the incorporation of reality TV and Jerry Springer, actually existed nicely within the film, and provided an interesting commentary on consumer culture. Even if it wasn't meant to, it worked well and didn't feel tacked on. Overall the film was more somber than I expected, again, not the tounge in cheek stuff I'd seen the trailer, and all the cheesy lines like 'heads you live, tails you die" again came off much more tasteful in the final cut. It's strange, because this film seems ot be everything Kill Bill wanted to be. It's truly gritty, and truly funny when it wants to be, and mixes art and trash with grace. Yet everyone loved Kill Bill, and hated this film.… Expand

The film is a joyous romp, featuring delicious performances from everyone around (even though I did feel that the Walken needed to be used more). The action sequences rock, the script is witty and intelligent, and I had a damn good time watching this film. It did go on a little too long, and some of the plot points weren't as clear as they should've been, but you know what? To compare this to "The Fog" and say this is worse, just goes to show you how little some critics know about film. This is vastly superior to that despicable excuse for celluloid, and if you're just looking for a good time in a movie theater that has action, blood, sex, etc etc... this is your best bet.… Expand

Loved it! Visually stunning, well-acted, well-written, beautifully directed, moments of humor. Convoluted, yes, but so were many great films (Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, The Usual Suspects come to mind). If you pay attention to detail, Loved it!

It's good for some cheap eye-candy, which is all I wanted out of it.

Domino wasn't great. It was certainly over complicated. But Mickey Rourke, Keira Knightley, and great visuals made it worth watching. Only once, but definitely worth watching that one time.
