Thelma & Louise (1991)

Thelma And Louise3 And A Half Out Of 5Thelma And Louise is a character driven feature about an adventure gone wrong that eventually is undeniably right. The chemistry among the lead characters might be and is the heart of the feature but its the rest of the part that gives it an appropriate kick to punch it on the correct lane. It may be short on technical aspects like background score and art design, but has an amazing cinematography and perfect editing on its favor.As mentioned, the camera work is beautiful with amazing visuals and places where it is shot, that makes it immensely pleasing to encounter and demands attention through it. The script by Callie Khouri is smart, adaptive, gripping and thought-provoking where it may not allow the audience to work for it as the most of the past is served beforehand, but still keeps them tangled and engaged in it. Ridley Scott; the director, delivers his expected magic on screen and he is on his A game in here, withholding the viewers frame-to-frame. The performance objective is scored majestically by the lead actors Geena Davis and Susan Sarandon in their parallel role and is supported decently by Harvey Keitel and Brad Pitt. Thelma And Louise breeds an essential and irrevocable fatal decision that actually is way ahead of its time and equally accurate too.

I felt so depressed while I watched this movie. It's so hard to survive as a woman in the society. You have to keep a good figure, cater to your husband, stay naive, make a balance between being vulnerable and strong-minded. Even you have done so much, It's still posssible for you not to be respected by males,just like Thelma in the movie, who was detested by her husband and forced to have sex with a stranger male. It is very suffocating to watch a movie like this as a female because it's very easy for female audience to identify the tragedies happened on females.

I saw this film at the cinema in 1991, I remember how much I enjoyed it, the great cinematography by R. Scott, the witty and insightful script, and the nearly perfect interpretations of Geena Davis, Susan Sarandon and every other actor/actress on it. I am not one of those who like to re-watch films, instead I prefer to see any new or old previously unseen film. So when I sat in front of the TV this August and started zapping my intention was to check what was on in Sundance Channel, but then I came across Thelma & Louise, and lazily decided to put down the remote. I cannot describe the emotion I felt as I recalled with unexpected precision scene after scene what was going to happen, some exact script lines and even the particular mood and gestures of the actors before they executed some of the scenes. It was then that I realized that film had had an impact on me, few times I have enjoyed that much in a theater, and recently on the TV. The film has not aged just a bit, it is as fresh and delightful as it was 25 years ago; the world has changed quite a lot since then, the humour/drama of the film has not. Thelma & Louise has something to it that makes it a classic, it now belongs to cinema history, and it will become (if this has not happened yet) a cult film reflecting an epoch. There has never been another Thelma & Louise, and there will never be, it seems nobody has even tried to do it, maybe the daring story it tells and the wonderfully crafted way it is told are too challenging to attempt something similar nowadays, and we should be glad for it.

Nice pictures, stupid story. How unbelievably stupid the male characters are. And the stupid decisions the two women take, are just boring. All to begin with, the a act of violence which is the foundation of the entire movie. Read the other negative references.Just don't watch it (unless you are a miserable 50 year old female who never had any happy moments in life, particularly not with the other sex).why did she shoot that guy in the first place - why don't they split the money - why are all guys idiotswhy woman of the women who is portrait as mostly nervous in hectic situations suddenly able to pull of an amazing criminal action
