10/10
Visually great

This movie is a mess but I love it. The visual style, especially the saturated colours is gorgeous to look at. The soundtrack is super energetic too. The story could have done with some trimming though. The main storyline is excellent, but it's surrounded by Domino telling the story to an FBI agent in an interrogation room, the backstory of Domino's childhood, a drug trip in the desert and a subplot about four sassy black women who work for Delory Lindon's character. Without these distractions this would be a very watchable masterpiece. Instead it's a very complicated film that took me several viewings to appreciate. The three bounty hunters, Rourke, Ramirez and Knightley are great when they are together and their chemistry is fantastic. If you can persevere with Domino it's a really vsually beautiful film with a sense of energy I've never seen in anything else.
