Movie Info
The (mostly) true story of a Hollywood princess turned bounty hunter is told in this witty action-drama from director Tony Scott. Domino Harvey (Keira Knightley) was the daughter of famed actor Laurence Harvey (played by Jesse Pate) who passed on when Domino was only eight years old. Domino's mother, former fashion model Paulene Stone (played by Jacqueline Bisset and renamed (%Sophie Wynn) in the film), strove to give her daughter a comfortable life, but Domino was naturally rebellious, and

This is perhaps the most stylized, excessively garish piece of R-rated pop entertainment since Natural Born Killers, and you know what, I loved it.
Top CriticIt's like a ferret on crystal meth that belatedly discovers ecstasy, and it's a tiresome trip either way.
Domino is far from dull. But it doesn't convince.
Buried deep within the psychedelic sludge that is Domino, there may be a story about a model turned bounty hunter. Good luck trying to find it.
A messy, fictionalized saga of femme-fatale bounty-hunter Domino Harvey.
If for some reason you're curious about the sad life of model-turned- bounty hunter Domino Harvey, don't bother with Tony Scott's dismal Domino.
Scott never takes his finger off the remix button, meaning scenes play out in microflashes and dialogue is chopped and scratched like a beatmixing jock cutting loose on his first day at DJ school.
Despite a great deal of promise and a rousing (albeit too drawn out) finale, it is crippled by a lack of narrative focus and good characterization. But it could have been so much more, and that is truly the worst thing that could be said about it.
...the film doesn't really know what it wants, and the result is more chaotic than compelling. (Blu-ray Edition)
...a tribute to Domino Harvey that reduces her to a nerve-jangling, romanticized song lyric.
Lurid biography that's way too violent for kids.
Domino is one insane gibbering beast, leagues more idiosyncratic than the average action flick.
a twisted head spinner of a biopic, where myth is always racing hot on the heels of a fugitive reality.
A well-paced action movie, if a little long, with an unusual feeling of surrealism behind the action.
full review in Greek
No doubt an interesting story could be told about her life, but this standard-issue assault on the senses isn't it.
Sometimes sound and fury can be quite something in its own right--and for a true character (in every sense) like Domino, it's enough.
All-sizzle, no-substance.
