Watch Trouble Bound For Free

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

This is an OK road movie with OK performances and some good fun. The main reason to watch Trouble Bound is the cinematography. It is outstanding, especially the outside scenes left a lasting impression. The same year Janusz Kaminski did Schindler's List and from then on photographed all the Steven Spielberg movies. In noirish Trouble Bound this excellent cinematographer comes through as a kind of contemporary John Alton.Michael Madsen does what he does best: frown and look sheepish (ties in well with the part). Patricia Arquette is far more livelier than in the other movies I have seen her in. Billy Bob Thornton has a small, rather inconsequential part and not least there is a mobster dowager and a corpse that keeps turning up. At one point it is lifted high up by a fork lift, then the convertible of the main characters accidentally hits the fork lift, and the body drops right on the back seat, like a ripe plum. Good stunt.

It's true that the formula to this movie is more than a little overused these days, but it's acted well enough by Madsen and Arquette, and being less than an hour and a half in duration, it keeps you interested anyway. I found it a very easy to watch, albeit fairly predictable film that's inoffensive and, occasionally, great fun. Patricia Arquette looks gorgeous in "Trouble Bound" (I seem to have developed a thing for her after seeing "Human Nature"!) and the overall result is a slightly above average action comedy. 6.5/10

This movie isn't very bright. The same action-comedy film, seen million times before. Michael Madsen is bad, as usual, unlike Patricia Arquette. There is absolutely no chemistry between the two, and everything they say or do is not realistic at all, many times you have the feeling it's something they need to say or do, just to keep the plot moving forward. (Example: when they first meet, she tries - unsuccesfully - to steal Harry's car, he catches her, opens the door with the key and then she goes round and enters without any problems through the right seat door). Also the movie is filled up with all sorts of cliches, so don't expect anything new or unpredictable cause you'll be disappointed.

This is the kind of movie it's a joy to discover on some off cable channel on a deep dark wintry night. Pure contemporary film noir. Topnotch actors - Madsen (today's Mitchum in my book, Arquette - one of the best in all modes, Thornton - a genius). The plot moves right along, it's a classic road/mafia comic romance flick. The cinematography is amazing - I looked up the guy & he went on to do Jerry McGuire & 3 Spielberg flicks including Private Ryan. What more can I say? I've always loved great trash - Jim Thompson was My Man!
