Natural Born Killers, a review by Silence_of_Lambs


Natural Born Killers (Director's Cut)  




Summary:
They kill 52 people in only 3 weeks, Mickey (Woody Harrelson) & Mallory (Juliette Lewis). Everytime they leave one survivor to tell about the "M&M"-murders. The massmedia sense a profitable story and make them famous...

My Thoughts:
Another one of my all-time favourites.
Based on the same script as "True Romance" we get a completely different film:
One of the best Oliver Stone has ever made.
Uncompromising, disturbing, surprising, innovative... or... sick, NBK polarizes its viewers. Hate it or love it, for this movie there's no inbetween.
But no matter if you love or hate it, it keeps you glued to your seat with eyes and mouth wide open.
The effect starts with the opening sequence and isn't over when the screen goes black, as is true for many good movies this one too makes you think.
Oliver Stone is using a quite unusual mix of photographic styles here, which always support the intent of the movie and cleared the way for later films like Kill Bill Vol. 1.

Great to watch and definitely a "Must See", but not necessarily a "Must Like"

My Rating: (out of possible 5)

Plot:
Action star Bruce Willis and ace comic Tracy Morgan play bickering-but-got-your-back Brooklyn buddy cops. Kevin Smith (Clerks, Chasing Amy) directs the gritty, goofball goings-on as the guys hunt for a stolen 1952 mint-condition baseball card, a hunt plunging them into a gunslinging war with a deadly drug ring. Batter up, fans. The boys are ready to take you out to the ol' brawl game!

  • Featurettes
  • Picture-in-picture
  • BD-Live
  • Digital Copy
  • Maximum Comedy Mode


My Thoughts:

This is a film I never even heard of before finding the blu-ray. I must say... I enjoyed it quite a bit. Kevin Smith directing an action-comedy. So that means lots of fun and laughs. Though I must admit that I was never much of a Tracy Morgan fan... I didn't mind him in this one at all. And I really liked both Bruce Willis and Seann William Scott. And being a Buffy the Vampire Slayer fan it was fun to see the small part that Michelle Trachtenberg had as Bruce Willis' daughter. This is one I definitely recommend... the storyline is both fun and action packed. The entire cast did a fine job... well worth the time put in to watch it.

A web animation series based on a web comic. The creator did this as a kind of an experiment. For an amateur production it was really fun.
