“True Romance” Movie Review
“True Romance” Plot Summary
Clarence marries hooker Alabama, steals cocaine from her pimp, and tries to sell it in Hollywood, while the owners of the coke try to reclaim it. add synopsis
This really is the ultimate Quentin Tarantino movie.
True Romance. Tarantino’s first, and ironically enough most original, movie. Though directed by Tony Scott (Top Gun, Enemy of the State) the film remains very faithful to Tarantino’s original conception. With the exception of the ending and the trademark Tarantino non-linear storytelling being taken out. There are oh so many things in this movie that Tarantino’s later works reference to that it’s like a Tarantino fan boy treat! Which I am not anymore. But during my one year time as a fan boy I did read the script of this movie and this was before I even saw the movie. So this being so very faithful to the script you can imagine how psyched i was seeing this movie. I was not disappointed
The movie starts off in not so sunny Detroit with our anti-hero Clarence. Clarence lives a very lonely life with comic books, Kung Fu movies and Elvis as his greatest passions. But one day a woman named Alabama comes into his life. They fall in love instantly and armed with a 38 caliber revolver, a suitcase full of cocaine and most of all love, they set off to sunny Hollywood to try to sell it off and live happily ever after
Many people brand this movie as a narcissistic teenage boy’s wet dream. Well it’s not. This is supposed to be a fairy tale and it so is. I mean he’s a film geek and she’s a hot girl. Well it turns out this hot girl likes movies and comics to so they get married. That’s every man’s dream. Tarantino didn’t set out to make a fairy tale when he wrote it but the changes that Tony Scott made (as small as they were) really changed the theme of the movie and made it lighter and more like a fairy tale. Personally I would have really liked to see what the movie would have been like if Tarantino had directed it
This is one of those movies which has a wonderful cast. First there’s Christian Slater (….well…True Romance) who plays the character of Clarence very good. Had this been directed by Tarantino in the early nineties the part would have been played by Tarantino himself. Slater plays it with a certain style and this really is his best film ever. I wonder why he doesn’t get better parts in movies. Then there’s Dennis Hopper (Land of the Dead, Speed) who plays his father in a couple of scenes. The whole movie is worth watching just for him. Gary Oldman (Leon, Lost in Space) plays a very cool role as Drexl the pimp. Good old Gary. Christopher Walken has a small role and plays it very calm and cool. Michael Rapaport, (Friends) who we all know from Friends and Deep Blue Sea, Plays struggling actor Dick Richie and gives a solid performance. And last but most certainly not least there’s Chris Penn (rest in peace) as Detective Nicky Dimes. He plays the part with such coolness and style and the film would not be what it is if he weren’t in it.’People have asked me: ‘So would you ever do a romance movie?’ like that’s not what I would do. ‘Well, I did a romantic movie, True Romance.’ ‘No, no, I mean like a real romantic movie.’ ‘Well that is a real romantic movie.’ ‘No, like one without violence?’ ‘Well there’ll be a lot of things in any movie I do that will be contradictory, but anybody who’s a fan of the movie can tell you, the title – True Romance – is not ironic…this is true romance.” – Quentin Tarantino.

“Kill Bill: Vol. 1″ Movie Review
“Kill Bill Part 1″ Plot Summary
The Bride wakes up after a long coma. The baby that she carried before entering the coma is gone. The only thing on her mind is to have revenge on the assassination team that betrayed her – a team she was once part of.
Fantastic
Probably Tarantino’s most universal movie to date, with a little less character dependency than most of his films and a more linear approach than usual, Kill Bill Volume 1 is a great place to start for anyone new to his movies. I don’t mean to imply this is a shallow film (far from it), i simply found it easier on the mind than Tarantino’s other movies
Uma Thurman, left for dead by her ex-boyfriend (Bill) doesn’t die and begins her quest for vengeance, by hunting down Bill’s gang members in a search for Bill. Armed with a Samurai sword and a deadly blend of martial arts skills, Uma delivers action, violence and passion as she plays out the character with beautiful precision
Need i say, this is excellently directed, brilliantly scripted and cast, and should be in everyone’s Tarantino collection.10/10 Second only to Pulp Fiction. Although it has wider appeal (I think)
