Ratings and reviews

An absolute 90's classic masterfully directed by Tony Scott with an amazing script by Quentin Tarantino. It's the age old story; guy meets girl, guy falls in love with girl, guy kills girls pimp, guy goes on the run with girl and suitcase full of cocaine to sell so they can ride off into the sunset and live happily ever after. All the violence, sharp dialogue and thrills that you'd expect from a film made by these guys, and that's as well as the cast, Christian Slater, Dennis Hopper, Brad Pitt

The ensemble cast, the great story - a modern day romance set against violence and abuse - a moral tale of courage and redemption, amazing acting, fab soundtrack - just watch it!!! then tell me!!! The bit I like best is when his dad decides to die to save his son, to atone for all the bad things he did as a father - not a dry eye in the house.

Alabama is the bravest little lady in the whole wide world when she comes back into her motel room to find "NO more MR Nice Guy"and the look on his face when he knocked her out (for the 1st time)sent a chill right over my whole body "Terrifyingly TRUE to life" The big man is missed terribly B
