Review of Domino (2005) by Ty P — 06 Feb 2012
"Sometimes a girl has to be naughty..." Domino is an adrenaline packed exploitation film that's wildly entertaining. Tony Scott brings his controversial stylistic directing to this fast paced, open narrative film, and it works brilliantly.
Additionally, Rickard Kelly brings a surreal style to the screenplay that perfectly syncs with Scott's directing. Keira Knightley is outstanding in the lead role of Domino Harvey, and breaks out as a strong, charismatic action star.
The supporting cast, which includes Mickey Rourke, Christopher Walken, and Lucy Liu, also give great performances that bring a lot of energy to the film. And though there are dozens of problems with the story, none of it ends up mattering; as the fun and the action keeps the film upbeat and moving.
Domino is a delicious guilty pleasure film that's pure mindless, crazy action.
