A good film, obviously Tarantino style

Rating: 8/10 (20 June 2008)

True Romance Written by Quentin Tarantino. Directed by TOny Scott. Starring Christian Slater, Patricia Arquette, Michael Rapaport, Val Kilmer, Dennis Hopper, Gary Oldman, Brad Pitt, TOm Sizemore, Christopher Walken, Saul Rubinek, James Gandolfini
A very well done suspense film from Tony Scott and Tarantino. The screenplay has an obvious Tarantino feel to it, and the performances are exceptional. It was not as flawless as Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction, and at times the only problem was that it seemed a bit long and like it didn't quite get to the point. However the pace was great during the first 2 3rds but the final 3rd of the film was a bit stretched in my eyes. Nonetheless one of the best Slater performances and a quality film. Very interesting story and intriguing throughout.---- 9/10
