Natural Born Killers [Unrated] [Director's Cut] [2 Discs] [DVD] [1994]

Oliver Stone's "Natural Born Killers" is not just a movie, it is an experience. It is a wild, dark ride that serves as a study of today's culture and it's fascination with violence. This movie is not so much about the killers, but about how the killers capture the public. The screenplay is masterfully structured with moments of vicious rage, deepness, dark comedy and powerful visual images. The film is hypnotically watchable due to the great mixing of different film formats, camera angles, colors and the breathtaking cinematography of Robert Richardson. "Natural Born Killers" is a great study of where our culture is going. Stone is a genius of cinema, one of the greatest directors there has ever been. This movie is effective, provocative, feverish and driven. It's electrifying. In fact, it's not as violent as you may think it is. It's the break neck speed it goes at and it's intense feeling. "Natural Born Killers" is both intense and brilliantly nightmarish. It's disturbing, as it should be. This serves as a slap on America's face, to wake it up. "Natural Born Killers" is a masterpiece, as Roger Ebert said: "Seeing this movie once is not enough."

Oliver Stone at his full powers of observation on the American condition as seen through a glass darkly. He was aided greatly by Woody Harrelson and Juliette Lewis as two young psychopathic killers out to make names for themselves. They were aided and abetted by an all star cast and the ever present media’s search for sensationalism. A grand filmic nightmare from the mind creating “Platoon”.

Pure old-school film making. No CGI. Excellent movie, definitely a 90s cult classic and one of Woody's finest performances. A good way to spend a few hours locked down during the pandemic. A cultural showpiece of America.

I have always wanted an edition of Natural Born Killers with both the Theatrical and Director's Cut packaged together. Whenever a film is as divisive with the public as this was in 1994, its good to have both versions to compare and remember what all the hubbub was about originally. The Director's Cut is my preferred version, but the Theatrical IS what I paid to see 3 times in the theater way back when. Worth picking up.

Woody Harrellson went way out of the curve this one. You have to wonder what it would take to be like these characters were. What's even more frightening is that this movie was based on a real life story.

it wasn't your typical Oliver Stone film. I'm glad I watched the special features prior to watching the movie because now I understand why it was filmed the way it was and with so much violence and chaos. the director himself was going through his own drama at the time at it clearly came out in his work.

I had a mystery coupon to use and I chose to get a couple of the good ole' classic movies. I spent a great deal of time digging through the bin to see if I could find a great movie and this is one of them. It has great actors and intense action to keep me interested throughout the movie. Only for mature adults!

Natural Born Killers is a very symbolism heavy movie. I can definitely say that it's not for everyone but it's typical Tarantino story. homages and montages. it can run a little long, but it's a different kind of movie that requires a specific taste. The case is very well made, the dvd/bluray holder is a little... weird but it does its job perfectly.
