A titanically indulgent mess. Tarantino, normally a writing genius, unloads his every juvenile fantasy, his every cheap cinematic crush, onto 'True Romance'.

Tarantino, normally a writing genius, unloads his every juvenile fantasy, his every cheap cinematic crush, onto 'True Romance'. Apart from one excellent (though disconnected) scene between Walken and Hopper, the writing itself is laughable and defies the brilliance of its author at every turn. Clueless cinematography, a horrific sound-track, hacky acting and unceasingly preposterous story logic do not improve the situation. Not one redeeming feature or endearing scene. This film is like watching Tarantino at confession.… Expand

This might've been a pretty good action flick. It starts off like a goofy rom-com and goes on to present us with insane bouts of violence. But then, in the middle of a scene of absolute madness, someone picks up a gun and murders a cop.This might've been a pretty good action flick.

Now you could argue that the cop just executed a guy, so he's a bad guy too, but it's not an argument I'm going to hear. Any character that murders a cop is stepping out over the line and there's no turning back and when the character is one of the leads you're done. I'm out. This is why I watched a couple episodes of NYPD Blue and never went back. It's why I watched a couple eps of The Shield and never turned it on again. It's non-negotiable. It's a deal-breaker. In my book, "True Romance" is **** and that's the beginning and The End for all time.… Expand
