Just buy it

Rating: Null/10 (8 October 1999)

I'd seen this movie sitting on the shelf a few times and just passed it over. Then I heard about how violent it was. So this won the toss up over U-turn. The cast and acting in this movie are amazing. Once again, Tarrantino serves up a no-crap array of characters. Patricia Arquette is EXCELLENT. i saw this and thought she'd be my new favorite actress, until i remembered how horrible she was in Stigmata. The story is, a guy meets this hooker, they fall in love. He goes to confront her pimp and ends up killing him and stealing a huge case of coke. The coke belongs to a very big time dealer who then chases after them and finally catches up to them when they try to sell it. As a guy with a girlfriend, there's a scene where one of the 'bad guys' goes to retrieve the drugs and finds Arquette alone with them that just angered me. Not in the sense that i was offended by it, but because you become so infatuated with her character you hate to see something done to her. He basically beats the hell out of her, fortunately she gets payback though. Once again, the cast is great. I dont recall seeing more than a few no-namers or people i hadnt seen in other films. We're once again treated to an excellent performance by Chris Penn. i highly highly recommend this. dont even bother renting it, just buy it.
