Susan WloszczynaUSA Today
These gun-crazy, lust-loopy kids on the run are irresistible in the best crime rush since GoodFellas. [10 Sept 1993]

Peter TraversRolling Stone
The blistering confrontation scene between Hopper and Walken -- both in peak form -- will be talked about for years. It's pure Tarantino: a full-throttle blast of bloody action and verbal fireworks. show more

Mick LaSalleSan Francisco Chronicle
Anybody who talks about True Romance has to start with the writing. It's dazzling. In scene after scene, Tarantino surprises the audience even while coming up with dialogue that rings much more true than anything you could have anticipated. [10 Sept 1993]
