More than meets the close minded eye.
Pros: great visuals, story and meaning.
Cons: For the full effect watch the directors cut.
I'd like to start off by saying that NBK is one of the best movie I've seen. I love the interesting use of visuals(for more great visuals see House of 1000 Corpses but that's another story)to relay emotion and hidden symbolism. The story is enthralling as well as the characters and diologue(go Tarantino).
Now to the naysayers that said "Violence, violence, violence!" Well, it is about two mass murderers so yeah it's going to be violent. It's also about the superstar status society holds these people to(Manson anyone?). But for those that failed to look even closer it's a love story. One of the best right there w/ True Romance(Tarantino!) and Bram Stokers Dracula. Underneath it all these two are simply in love. Woody Harrelson said it best in the pre riot scene,"Love beats the demon."
In closing I would like to say before you condemn look closer sometimes. And sometimes don't look so close. It is entertainment after all. ...
