Natural Born Killers.....?

Question

What did everyone think of the movie....dont just say it sucked or it was cool tell my why you think this.

I watched it for the first time last weekend and I liked it...very violent but I liked it. But I like those kind of movies...

American History X is another one of my favs~

Answer 1

It is indeed very violent, but I liked it mostly for the weirdness quality. Also, their killing spree is loosely based on that of the serial killer Charles Starkweather and his underage girlfriend from 1958 in Nebraska.

Answer 2

I got 2 free passes to see this film... I had very low expectations since it starred Johnny Knoxville who I, until today, only associated with really grotesque behavior on Jackass. The combination of that and Special Olympics smelled like it could be a cheap joke at the expense of Special Olympians but in fact it turned out to be just the opposite! It totally surpassed my expectations! It was a truly sweet, laugh out loud funny feel-good movie with big big heart. It portrayed the Olympians in a really caring way and those characters totally made the movie. I didn't have any trouble swallowing Johnny as a naive guy with a big heart, but people who've seen him in Jackass might find the contrast startling at first. It might be too sweet, or too predictably Hollywood for some people... But the physical comedy and naive sweetness really won me over in the end. I look forward to watching this film again.

Answer 3

I felt like it was a really well written film and it could have been wonderfully dark comedy, but Oliver Stone spent too much effort trying to make a weird and trippy movie, and lost sight of the point of the story.

Answer 4

I didn't like it at all. It was way too overstated and heavy-handed. Once it made it's point it kept bludgeoning you over the head with it.
