An Excellent story told through the eyes of two of the greatest filmmakers ever

Rating: 8/10 (10 July 2015)

"True Romance" is above all, a love story. Not a conventional one, though. Right in the beginning, we are introduced to Clarence, a guy on his early twenties, obsessed by Elvis who is trying to date with the girl. Then he meets Alabama, a girl who at first seems naive. Although, nothing is what it seems and she tells Clarance that she is a call girl who was paid by his boss to please Clarance on his birthday.
The rest, well, you'll have to see it. Directed by the late Tony Scott and written by Quentin Tarantino, this movie is just a blast! The dialogues are top notch and the photography is astounding. And the acting ... just great performances. Christian Slater on his best as Clarance (he was really talented) and Patricia Arquette as Alabama had really a connection which granted more enjoyability to the movie.
Besides this two we have a whole lot of other great/superb actors to watch. Christopher Walken is as menacing as ever, the late Dennis Hopper is just excellent, Brad Pitt plays a small part but still shines, Gary Oldman is just awesome, Samuel L. Jackson is killed within the first two minutes on screen and Val Kilmer also delivers an enigmatic performance as the Mentor.
The soundtrack is amazing as it should be, it is Hans Zimmer for God sake.
"True Romance" is an excellent film! Watch it!
