Shotgun wedding

Rating: Null/10 (30 November 2001)

Quentin Tarantino´s brilliant script made it possible that director Tony Scott, normally responsible for average Hollywood-stuff à la "Crimson Tide" or "Enemy of the State", filmed his best movie with this! A great photography and cinematography, curious parts like former sex symbol Brad Pitt as a hash smoker or Val Kilmer as Elvis Presley´s ghost and an excellent cast even in the smallest roles made "True Romance" being another masterpiece by the God of 1990s-gangster movies!! Loved Dennis Hopper´s dialogue with Chris Walken and the following headshot as well as the riot showdown at the end (Tony Scott recycled the same idea in his Will Smith-vehicle some years later again..!); gorgeous Patricia Arquette is an absolute eyecandy in this modern Bonnie & Clyde-version! Unfortunately, "Natural Born Killers", where Tarantino also wrote the script script, was not nearly as great as this one! A masterpiece of 1990s-cinema!!
