Review of Domino (2005) by Kay T — 14 Jul 2009
Not the best, but good enough for a recommendation. Richard Roeper namechecked Natural Born Killers when he and Ebert reviewed this. I agree. Style wise it is very close. One could argue that so is Stone's other film U-Turn, but that was a mess; Natural Born Killers is a masterpiece, and this is delirious fun.
One character describes another as "having the attention span of a ferrett on crystal meth". That is a perfect way to describe this film. Many people disliked this film for being done in such a frenzied, hyperstylized way, but I liked it.
Made it unique and fun. The casting was cool as well. Interesting choices for supporting players, and it worked since it didn't come across as cheap stunt casting, as these things sometimes do. The biggest issue is that the film is a little muddled, but even then I still found it all entertaining.
