Blu B The editing is a special kind of bad. It's horrifically bad. It's edited like a music video and it's so distracting with random fast editing, random slow motion, and some stuff I don't even know. It just straight gets incoherent. It's got 2 stories going on. The actual biopic about Domino Harvey and her upbringing, motivations, relationships and all. And a second one about the mafia, a kidnapping, the FBI, double crossing, informants, Monique selling fake IDs and I just don't even know what's happening when it comes together at the end. The ending just straight doesn't make sense. It's like a poorly done True romance type of ending that's so poorly done I can't tell what is happening. It never in the lsightest makes these two stories work together and it keeps jumping between the tw and on top of being out of order flashback style too it makes it so convuluted and more incoherent as it goes on. The pacing is terrible because of it. The music sin't good and just doesn't fit. It's like a Bad Boys/Fast & Furious type soundtrack that's trying to be hip and cool more than matching something for what is actually happening on screen. The cinematography isn't good either. Scott's direction is so distracting and doesn't add anything. The color saturation, gritty and raw cinematography, scenes that look like a MTV video don't add at all. Some of the action is cool and some interactions are interesting but it doesn't add to anything. The best thing is the acting which is just alright. Keira is good and the only good thing in this. The casting in general is pretty good but the lines their given and the unfocused script doesn't help things at all and weigh it down. This is trying to be like a Molly's Game type of biopic crossed with like a True Romance crime plot. It should've just focused on Domino Harvey and her interesting life and the colorful characters and get rid of that crazy crime plot. This should be remade honestly. I see potential here. Skip This until that happens. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/14/25 Full Review Audience Member I had never heard of Domino Harvey before watching this movie many years ago. It was so grimy and interesting and quirky, that I sat through the whole movie wondering what was going to happen next. It was like a Quentin Tarratino movie on acid, filled with dozens of garish self-involved characters moving in different directions and crashing into each other. The chaos in this movie is even more reflective of today's society than it was 20 years ago when it was released. And Monique is a scene stealer. Look for the late Domino Harvey at the end of the film and in the movie 'Constantine'. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/04/25 Full Review Harald B It does not grow on you the longer it lasts. Not really any substance and i am tempted to call it a waste of my attention. But it is so horribly made i can't bring myself to turn it off. I've read the other reviews and they bring it to the point too. Exept for the one where someone calls it the wet dream of a maxime reader. That's uncalled for, Maxine is a darn fine magazine. You're out off line with you're foul language Lady, if we can call you that. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/22/24 Full Review Alain M was ok, Kiera Knightly comfirms she can hold her own in an action flick where the action is typically signed off by Tony Scott. Story is a bit incoherent with the flashback angle, making the movie all the more confusing. Mickey Rourke is actually good in this one. Much better then the roles he is portraying as of late, where he is more on the Seagal route as anything else Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/03/23 Full Review Matthew F Domino was a solid movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/22/23 Full Review Pijadalo R Particular and honestly refreshing style. Nice rhythm overall and great synergy between the characters. Love the "Hollywood" exaggeration Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/14/23 Full Review Read all reviews
