Fun Stuff

Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: (At 22:30) Christian Slater pulls the trigger on his gun, but it only goes click. Semi-automatics are designed so the slide (top part of the gun) stays locked in the rearward position when empty. This condition would have alerted him that he was already out of bullets before bothering to shoot. more
Quotes:
Hendricks: The guy who sold it to them said they had a couple suitcases. Got on the freeway headed east. It's a bright orange '57 Chevy.
Pollen: A bright orange '57 Chevy? We'll never find them now.

Not as great as true romance, but still good, 12 January 2008
8/10
Author: crevy from Sweden

If you are to chose between watching true romance and this movie; chose true romance. I would give that movie 10/10 and this movie 8/10. This is still a very good movie. Different movies leaves difference impressions on me: i sometimes watch movies that are highly rated on IMDb (like "I am legend") and and is bored during the movie and afterward felt like i wasted a part of my life. This is not the case with Love Lies Bleeding. It is very exciting all the way, and balances the action with slower parts to actually produce an emotion of thriller to this viewer.

The acting is decent, and i felt with the characters. They felt like normal people and not like unrealistic super humans that's common these days in movies. The action part is not overdone and also feels realistic to me.
