Domino (DVD) > Reviews

Advantages: Pretty entertaining stuff
Disadvantages: Hard to tell what was fact and what was fiction

...days - 'My name is Domino Harvey and I am a bounty hunter'. This was enough to put me off the film. That was until I read an article about the real Domino Harvey and realised that if the film was anything like her actual life it may be worth a look. Domino Harvey was (according to the film) a rich girl gone bad. Her father was an actor before he died and her mum was a model, more interested in her social life than paying much attention to Domino. ... Read review

Advantages: Decent enough cast
Disadvantages: Poorly cut

...real life of Bounty Hunter Domino Harvey, played pretty well by the lovely Keira Knightley. Most of the film is shot in the very Tarentino style of flashback as Domino is questioned by an FBI agent played by the woefully under used Lucy Liu. The film follows the life of Domino from childhood to her arrest and whoever made this film had definitely seen FAR too many Tarentino films for their own good. The film is a the story of 3 bounty hunters who ... Read review

Advantages: Interesting story
Disadvantages: Everything else is crap

...her films outbefore passing comment. Domino was my film of choice, and guess what - it's still the silly rich girl trying to do grown up boys things - this time she plays the part of bounty hunter Domino Harvey who before her death commented that she was unhappy with her portrayal in the film and I'm not surprised at all. Knightley plays an unconcvincing rich girl turned punk who is good with num chucks, her phrases are dull and the scenarios are ... Read review

Advantages: Good story
Disadvantages: ------

..."career" as a model. But Domino was a rebel, she wanted something more from life. The girl found out what she was looking for: she became a "bounty killer": she met her collegues in a rather odd way, then started her job: haunting criminals. Domino became the core of the "team"; they organized projects, untill her mother got in touch with a television producer: they wanted Domino and her buddies to shoot a "reality show". Soon the situation starts ... Read review

Advantages: Great story line with heart racing nonstop action
Disadvantages: A little to much swearing could be avoided

...a young rebelious girl named Domino (accompanied by the domino necklace around her neck) who is tired of being expected to do things and be a goodie goodie and so she goes along to a bounty hunters meeting and after a small fight scene gets enrolled into a small bounty hunter squad consisting of Choco (Edgar Ramirez) a cheeky european who fanies Domino from the moment he sees her. Ed Mosely (Mickey Rourke) the most legendary bounty hunter in all of ... Read review

Advantages: lots of action, good performance from Knightley and a interesting storyline
Disadvantages: becomes quite hard to follow at some stages

...to the story. The film follows Domino (played by Keira Knightley) from childhood to retirement as a bounty hunter and shows how her work collegues become her family-as the only people she can trust. I was surprised Knightley managed to play the daring, dangerous Domino so well, a role I wouldn't have labelled her as being able to do, but credit to her. If you like action films and a good plot, then don't miss out on this film ... Read review

Advantages: A fair bit of action, Kiera's accent
Disadvantages: Confusing, story not portrayed well

...Knightly. It is a story of Domino Harvey, the model turned bounty hunter, daughter of Lawrence Harvey, British actor. Domino is played by Kiera Knightly who is very harsh and firey in this film. The film starts with Domino talking to an FBI agent (Lucy Lui), presumably she has been arrested for something but at this time we do not know what. Domino goes on to tell her story, how she was a bit of tom-boy and how her mother left her at a boarding ... Read review

Advantages: lots of big bangs
Disadvantages: acting not amazing

...based upon the life of Domino Harvey, the english born model turned all american bounty hunter. As a peron and a character, she is flawed, but you love her all the same. Her bording school manners have long been forgotten in this full throtle film. If you like Knightley, this will be a surprise, though her 'method' of acting I find the same. Not that I could see Elizabeth Bennet replacing Domino. Also, its one of those films, in which you ... Read review
