Cameo heaven!

Rating: 8/10 (5 October 2018)

Probably the high point of Christian Slater's and Patricia Arquette's careers?
A crime fiction movie with a script by Tarantino and a incredible line up of cameo appearances by people who went on to become more well known than they were here.
You probably won't recognise Val Kilmer as the spirit of Elvis, as he his face is never shown clearly.
Samuel L Jackson manages about 60 seconds of archetypal patter before being blown away by...
Gary Oldman, who does a great evil Ali G impression (white man with dreadlocks and African American patter) before Slater deals with him.
Dennis Hopper puts in a memorable stint, as Slater's father, before being blown away by...
Christopher Walken, in vintage Mafia mode (and he survives the carnage).
As does Brad Pitt, at least as far as we know, who plays a laid back doper dude.
James Gandolfini gets to play the prototype of Mr Blond, and audition for his career defining role in the Sopranos, before Arquette manages to despatch him.
Bronson Pinchot gets to play it straight for a change, but that still doesn't save him.
And Tom Sizemore and Nice Guy Eddie, I mean Chris Penn, turn up as colourful cops, who also bite the dust in the Mexican stand-off gone wrong finale.
Very good.
