True Romance (1993) - Eric Douglas Statzer

Go on take the money and run!

Or shall I say contraband? Either way this high-voltage thriller will
have you on the edge of your seat for 120 minutes. This script was
anything but beginner's luck, Knoxville born Quentin Tarantino's first
script geared for a major motion picture was in fact originally
intended to be written and directed by Tarantino himself but due to the
"business of Hollywood" he sold it and the direction went to the
already veteran director Tony Scott. Nonetheless True Romance
exemplifies the epitome of what 1990's action movies were all about,
Adrenaline.

















With an all star cast and a lineup of amazing scenes this movie is
packed with excitement from the very start. The monologues are
captivating, the violence is bombarding, and the story itself is
surprisingly charming. Christian Slater and Patricia Arquette deliver a
dynamic lead portraying a lovestruck fantasy for any couple wishing to
keep their relationship on the outer realm of exciting, to say the
least.

The supporting cast is superb, consisting of many big names and faces
that have rocked the silver screen for decades. The talent and delivery
from this supporting crew can only be believed when experienced. From
mobsters and police, hookers, and tough guys, movie producers and
gangsters, stoners and pimps, even the humble voice of a musical
legend, this eclectic mix of characters unravel the 1990's and opens
the door to a wide array of critics leaving only one opinion that is
truly relevant, yours.
