True Romance

Great, great film.

stvn1974 · 01-12-2021, 06:21 PM

True Romance but both are amazing. I like them better than anything directed by Tarantino himself.

Ray Jackson · 01-12-2021, 06:25 PM

Very different films imo.

Both are great, but I like the characters in TR better.

Only thing I don’t like about TR are a few of the music choices Tony Scott made.

...although the homage to Badlands was perfect.

True Romance by far. Excellent movie. Love the scene with Walken and Hopper

I love, LOVE Natural Born Killers. But True Romance is magic. The stars really lined up just right for that one

CreasyBear · 01-13-2021, 01:03 AM

Love both, but gotta go with True Romance.

Plus, Zimmer's theme is just perfect.

AKORIS · 01-13-2021, 03:55 AM

this was easier than most--- both ultra violent flicks but one I think is pretty terrific while the other is offensive trash to me---

True Romance for the win

I like both films & I could not care less than I already do about ranking one over the other. Why did I respond to the thread then? Why not?

Waboman · 01-13-2021, 03:59 AM

I like you, Clarence. Always have. Always will.

kylor · 01-13-2021, 11:35 PM

Welp, guess I'm the odd one out. Natural Born Killers.

trevanian · 01-14-2021, 01:29 AM

Glad to see all the love for TRUE.

NBK was the first big Stone feature to miss the mark for me, and actually now that I think of it, I haven't liked any of his stuff since, so NBK is a real turning point. It seems to carry over all the stylistic innovation from JFK (which I adore, and rewatch the way other people rewatch GODFATHER pics), but without the content, which makes the film seem like an empty exercise to me (plus I don't like the characters.)

True Romance

drush9999 · 01-17-2021, 01:16 PM

Like both films, but True Romance has that Dennis Hopper/Christoper Walken scene so wins by default

Mr. Entertainment · 09-04-2021, 01:57 PM

Natural Born Killers

Natural Born Killers.
I'm actually VERY surprised this poll is very lopsided towards True Romance!

qb2333 · 04-16-2024, 07:51 PM

True Romance by a country mile.

Natural Born Killers.

True Romance has a great screenplay but is tonally and visually all over the place. Wrong Director and some poor casting choices. Every scene is a different movie.
