One Of My ALL-TIME Favorite Films...

Rating: 10/10 (5 January 2006)

Sorry kids...it don't get much better than this. TRUE ROMANCE is one of the coolest films ever made. The cast, acting, plot, cinematography - everything, is just dead-on...
Clarence and Alabama are a couple o' newly-wed's who accidentally walked with a suitcase full of Alabama's ex-pimp's blow. Well, it actually wasn't his either, it actually belonged to some mob cats and now they want their sh!t back...Clarence and Alabama set of to L.A. to try to get rid of the coke, all the while unknowingly being tailed by the mob boys. Things get hairy when the cops get involved and it all just sorta "hits the fan" from there...
I can't praise TRUE ROMANCE enough. It really is one of my all-time favorite films and should definitely be considered a MUST SEE by anyone who likes a good action/comedy/drama. Since it's written by Tarantino, expect the prerequisite violence and obsessive cursing...but this is by far my favorite film that he's had anything to do with. The cast alone is a who's who: Christian Slater, Patricia Arquette, Tom Sizemore, Michael Rappaport, James Gandolfini, Chris Penn, Balki from Perfect Strangers, Brad Pitt, and of course the legends themselves - Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper - who share a scene that I swear to God is one of the best in film history. If you haven't seen this film yet, you should feel hollow and empty inside...GO GRAB THIS ONE IMMEDIATELY!!! My HIGHEST recommendations for TRUE ROMANCE ---10/10 (and I don't give these out much...)
