A heavy duty acid trip, quite possibly the most hallucinatory and anarchic picture made at a major Hollywood studio in at least 20 years.
Full reviewOscar-winning director Oliver Stone (Platoon, JFK) gave his vision of the future with this 1994 crime drama starring Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis as love-struck serial killers, whose murderous actions are glorified by the media that interview the sole survivor of each slaughter. Based on an original story by Quentin Tarantino, co-starring Robert Downey Jr. and Tommy Lee Jones.
