Does it really matter what's true or false in Domino if the movie's so deliriously hard to resist? Tony Scott's dizzying film about his late friend, former model and famous bounty hunter Domino Harvey (1969-2005), is more tribute than biography, riffing on Harvey's action-packed exploits and brief reality-TV celebrity in a fractured, manic style that's so visually over-stimulating that it could throw vulnerable viewers into grand mal seizures. Scott's barrage of audio-visual hyperactivity is ultimately exhausting, and Richard Kelly's fragmented screenplay does nothing to discourage Scott's relentless MTV "style" (and we use that word oh-so-loosely here). And yet, with Keira Knightley so ferociously alluring in the title role, and Mickey Rourke (as her boss and bounty-hunting mentor, Ed Mosbey) serving up a second dose of his Sin City comeback, Domino grabs you by the throat and never lets go. Scott's embrace of nihilism is typically facile but it propels a vision of wretched humanity that pulls you in with train-wreck intensity. The movie's bracing humor also makes fine use of a large supporting cast including Christopher Walken, Jacqueline Bissett, Dabney Coleman, Edgar Ramirez, Mo'Nique, Delroy Lindo, Mena Suvari, Lucy Liu, and former Beverly Hills 90210 stars Ian Ziering and Brian Austin Green (the latter two poking good-sport fun at themselves as "celebrity hostages"). The accidental overdose death of the real Domino (daughter of The Manchurian Candidate star Laurence Harvey) in the summer of 2005 threw a sad shroud of irony over this movie's theatrical release, but for all its reckless indulgence, Domino is a fitting eulogy for a troubled woman whose credo ("Heads you live, tails you die") is reflected in Scott's fictionalized rendition of the dangerous life she lived. --Jeff Shannon

If this film had not claimed it was based "on a true story...sort of" right at the opening, I would have thought it's faily entertaining.
It became a bad joke when one person had his whole right arm shot off by one of Domino fellow bounty hunters. Yet, he's still able to shout loudly to his mother asking her to give the hunters the money! There are quite a few nonsense scenes like that.
There is a lot of shooting and action. If you're watching it for facts, you'll be disappointed. ... Read More

Hack Director Alert
Back in 1968, at the height of his "Star Trek" celebrity, William Shatner got way too full of himself and released a record album called "The Transformed Man". It was not music in the normal sense but rather Shatner's dramatic reading of some vaguely classic literary passages set to unusual music. Two tracks were actual songs, "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds" and "Mr. Tambourine Man", with Shatner dramatically reading the lyrics in his standard "chewing the scenery" manic-depressive ...

Not fun to watch. This entire film is shot in 1 to 4 second time frames (fast, up close, and out of focus) just like a stupid TV crime drama, which I freakin' hate. SUCKED!!!

When I first saw `Domino' I was in love. I must admit that I adore Tony Scott's directing style. I remember when I first saw `Man on Fire', I was just blown away by the way Scott could capture your attention so effortlessly. I am a huge fan of his brother Ridley (one of our finest working directors) and while I feel Ridley is the finer director, Tony is working his way up their on his own terms. So to get back to my initial statement, when I first saw `Domino' I was smitten, or in love, whatever I said at first. ... Read More

This movie doesn't do it for me. The main problem is that too many genres are involved in this DVD. At times it seems like the producers are trying to mix action, thriller, and gangster movie scenes into this movie, which give the viewer the idea that this movie can't make up its mind about what it really wants to be! Also the story seemed to be too contrived for my taste, and was thus not convincing, especially with a female bounty hunter playing the protagonist.
