You're so cool...

Rating: 10/10 (23 February 2003)

Holy *expletive deleted*. This movie is the absolute greatest. Bar none, the finest movie ever made. I can just watch it over and over again without ever getting bored. Such spellbinding performances are given, it leaves the viewer in awe. Tony Scott directs, and does a fantastic job. The leads, Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette, are perfectly cast and have unbelieveable chemistry.
*SPOILERS*
Clarence and Alabama are a couple of young sweethearts who stumble on a suitcase full of cocaine. What ensues is a kind of new age Bonnie and Clyde adventure, the sort that captivates your attention till the very end. Absolutely amazing.
One of my favorite scenes is the one in which Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper are in a trailer together. Dennis Hopper just has this way of talking that makes you hang on his every word. It's not to be explained.
Another is the uber-cute roller-coaster scene, where Christian Slater is ever so sexy and spouts hilarious one-liners. This movie is the perfect example of how the components of a romance-flick and adventure-flick can exist in the same movie.
The freakin' best. See this movie. Stellar cast, great acting, sexy men...see it.
10 out of 10 stars!
