Movie- Domino

Tony Scott directs this action flick in a frenetic, fast-paced style, that could have honestly used fewer quick flashes, and more characterization. Scott seems to be in a schizophrenic dive bomb and his quick cuts make Domino (2005) seem intensely artificial and just hard to watch.

Telling the (true-ish) story of Domino Harvey (played by Keira Knightley) a young woman who decides to become a bounty hunter, the film would seem to have a lot going for it, with Knightly and Mickey Rourke in big roles. But Tony Scott so over-directs and edits that it is not very good and more than a little bit of a mess.

Pass on this one.

At least that is my opinion,
