Critics Consensus

The life story of model-turned- bounty-hunter Domino Harvey struggles to get out of this overwrought and excessive biopic.

The longer Domino lasts the more annoying it becomes, everything coming to a head in a fetishistic orgy of bloody babes and bullets that's sure to go down as a Maxim reader's wet dream.

The List

Richard "Donnie Darko" Kelly's screenplay is a fantastical, incoherent fuzz while director Tony Scott tries and fails to recapture the energy and fun of his 1993 hit, True Romance.

Rated: 1/5

Antagony & Ecstasy

While visual anarchy can be starling and bracing in chunks, Domino quickly settles into a one-tone-fits-all groove that's desperately wearying.

Rated: 3/10

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.

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

Particular and honestly refreshing style. Nice rhythm overall and great synergy between the characters. Love the "Hollywood" exaggeration

The script is a mess and the production/editing seem like they were trying to pull the story in a completely different direction. It's sad, because with some better cohesion between filming and editing, it could have been a really good movie with the cast it was given to work with. Too much, too fast, which gave it no time for any depth of the storyline to follow.

The cast has the talent to pull the story off, but the film never lets them.
