Fresh out of the gate, Terrence Malik wrote and directed this unmatchable star-crossed impressionist romance.

Extremely influential crime drama/doomed romance/road movie that can be seen reflected in every film Quentin Tarantino has made; especially True Romance. Martin Sheen is wonderful as the charismatic social misfit cum killer and his romance with the innocent Spacek is very touching. A cult classic.

The key to this film's intriguing qualities is Martin Sheen's captivating, aggressive performance and Sissy Spacek's innocent, spacey one. Malick wisely doesn't choose to judge or explain the two main characters and instead lets the audience observe and thoughtfully draw their own conclusions.

Martin Sheen's performance as the psychotic yet somehow very cool serial killer gives this movie its oomph.

Wonderful movie. Perfect. The character of Kit Cruthers is one of the most charismatic and interesting characters I have ever witnessed while watching a movie. If you have half a brain at all, this one will be stuck in your head for days.

A well done but slow paced drama with Sheen impressive as the lead role. I was really looking forward to the movie with Malick at the helm. I was disappointed in the lack of originality. "Natural Born Killers" is a little more entertaining.
