The whole thing rattles along like that pink Cadillac they're driving.

...[a] violently funny genre mishmash that gave Tony Scott's new life, and also transmitted Quentin Tarantino's vision more credibly than the screenwriter and then-novice director could have done himself.

...a pulpy good time that holds up remarkably well two decades after its theatrical release...

This is the best film Quentin Tarantino never made.

The only thing that goes wrong with the movie is Christian Slater... the failure of its central character ends up being an irritation, but not a film-crippling problem.

This film's various outrages are committed unapologetically, and are very much in the service of its bizarre story.

Quentin Tarantino's dirty, funny and unpredictably violent genius powers True Romance, directed by Tony Scott.

If shoot-'em-up, gobble-'em-down movies like The Fugitive and Jurassic Park are rated PG-13 these days, what does an R-rated action adventure look like? Like True Romance: violent to a fault, glam to the max.

It's Tarantino's gutter poetry that detonates True Romance. This movie is dynamite.
January 01, 2000
The movie may be stylistically visceral, but it's aesthetically corrupt. It might as well have been called Pump Up the Violence.
June 24, 2006
If the romance seldom seems 'true', the spiralling violence (script, Quentin Tarantino) does succeed, in a brutish, cod-Jacobean kind of way.

Provides some amazing encounters, bravura acting turns and gruesome carnage. But it doesn't add up to enough.
