Ack! Ack!! I think I coughed up a hairball at the moment I realized the scriptwriter really was trying to pen a love story and not simply another violent comedy piece. there was a heavy whiff of "Natural Born Killers" of course, but it really almost copied "Pulp Fiction" exactly. both "Love..." and "Pulp Fiction" were done in 1994, according to a quick Google. "Love..." seems to be a caricature of Pulp Fiction, especially regarding the soundtrack, which was good but could not even hope to salvage a particularly horrific script. I'm hoping someone can tell us what movie(s) might have spawned this particular genre of comedy-thriller that seems to require a battery of guns, violence, sex, cool-drug music and surf music, drugs and way-too-cool lines. Please drop in a Comment. Thx.

The only reason to watch this is to complete a study of Renee Zellewegger's work. It's a B movie. Don't read the reviews and then think you will see anything near the value of Tarantino or Stone even at their worst. I cannot understand how this movie could even be compared to True Romance, for instance. TR is amazing--brilliantly written and packed with excellent performances by too many good actors to list. This one has Renee in a forgettable part. That's it. Gil Bellow is mis-cast entirely. The acting is mostly sub-par, caricature. Cinematography 101. Even Renee delivers a so-so performance, but she's never unwatchable, which again is my reason for seeing it. There just isn't much entertainment value at all. Unless you know someone on the production, or maybe for study purposes, you should definitely pass on this one.

this movie is heavily inspired by Quintin Tarentino and does lack some originality. But that having been said this is a very enjoyable film. It's mainly a love story of two people who are on the run from the law and on their way to Mexico. The film is full of quirky characters and dialogue that will keep you entertained and enough violence to satisfy an action junkie. What i really love about the film is Renee Zellwegger. this is the first movie I've seen her in and I've been in love with her ever since. In this movie not only is her acting terrific but her wardrobe consists only of tank tops and little cut-off shorts. She may have the best legs in hollywood.

Hollywood over does the PWT genre. Almost turned it off several times but for some reason I sat through every tortuous minute. If the people it depicts really exist then same folk will like this movie. Otherwise it is stupid and pointless. So was "Pulp Fiction". Also, since I have to commit 10 lines in order to be heard, I'll say the nickel plated Government model was cool but the scene where he gave away the blued Colt didn't fit. "Love and 45" must have been edited by committee, or it ran out of money, or it was just a drill for junior actors, actress's, and writers developing their skills for future movies. Looks like Barbarella's brother played himself almost.

For the genre I thought it was pretty good. It's not so much a Tarentino ripoff, as has been suggested, as another in a long line of White Trash on the Road movies which started back with Bonnie & Clyde & Easy Rider and continues with movies like Freeway, Natural Born Killers etc. The characters were great. They're supposed to be overdrawn and the balance between the main characters bad deeds and that piece of goodness they have that no one else in the film possess was struck just right. Rightly so Renee Zellweger has built a career since this but I'm surprised that the Director, CM Talkington went nowhere from here and the lead Gil Bellows (who is charming here) has had little success either. And who would have thought that Creepy would go on to direct a ton of TV shows!

I took the time to register just so you can see an awesome flick. This film is right up there with Pulp Fiction, Snatch, Lock Stock and 2 Smoking Barrels, even Fight Club. I am not gonna do a critique here, but it has it all - its funny at times, and deadly serious at others. It has a great flow, and the soundtrack is perfect. I'd never heard of the Reverend Horton Heat or Mazzy Star, but they rock this flick. Frankly I am very surprised that we haven't heard from the Director in any other films. I just checked, and this and something called Killers Head are about it. Anyways, watch it and it might become one of your favorites too!

I saw this movie right after it came out and bought it immediately afterward. Though not as multi-faceted & complex as Tarantino's masterpiece, the critically acclaimed "Pulp Fiction", "Love & a .45" filmed here in Texas,(Austin/Bastrop area), will keep the viewer glued from beginning to end. It is by far one of the best movies released in 1994. From the Texas drawls to the family names mentioned by Dinosaur Bob & Creepy Cody, all can be found in the area. Bravo! to the casting directors for this film, for their choices clearly were well thought out. Each actor brought their own concept of "Texan" to the screen. I've read a lot of reviews here on the IMDb about how this movie is a rip-off of "Pulp Fiction" -- "NBK", another film comparison made here, was also released in that same year...my question is this: How can it be a "rip-off" if all 3 films were released the same year? Why not reference the 1992 film by Robert Rodriguez-"El Mariachi", exploding on the scene with his own brand of creative artistic Texas filming...and let's not forget about that OTHER famous Texas Director, RichardLinklater who made his debut that following year with his 1993 explosive hit "Dazed and Confused"...where Rory Cochrane plays an unforgettable role. Let's just say that 1994 was THE year for Creative Artistic Direction. One thing I do want to ask: Did Big Red Bottling Co. have anything to do with the making of this film? I mean, every scene has some sort of reference to the soft drink Big Red. Could this be "Free Advertising" at it's best?

I saw this movie late one night and was pleasantly surprised at how very good it was. Of course, it lacked in certain areas, and could have been better developed but I believe that if the budget was better, it would have succeeded. This movie has a decent plot, really well-developed characters and very creative screen shots. I recommend this movie to anyone who is interested in Tarantino's style but by a different director. Definitely a cult classic.

Back in the early 90's there seemed to be a plethora of films about young outlaw couples on the run from the law. They were a combination between the road movie and the crime-thriller. Wild At Heart, True Romance, Natural Born Killers and even Thelma and Louise are examples of this phenomenon. Who really knows why they were so popular, but whatever the reason, Love and a .45 is yet another one from this cycle. I think it would be only fair to say that it's a minor entry, and it doesn't compare too favourably with those other movies mentioned above. Also in common with these other flicks, this one has a pretty strong emphasis on humour too. And perhaps this is one of the main flaws because, generally speaking, most of the supposed laughs aren't that funny. Its dependent on its characters who are supposed to be quirky and left-field enough to raise a smile. But the two gangsters and the psychotic 'friend' are mainly pretty annoying; while Peter Fonda's hippy dad may talk through a voice box but that accounts for one initial smile and gets old fast - he's essentially a one joke character. The story is a fairly generic bit of crime fiction. Its certainly serviceable although not especially memorable on its own terms. In the movie's favour is the fact that it does have a fast pace and it never truly outstays it welcome. That said, it isn't really too much of a shock that director C. M. Talkington didn't go on to forge a film career, as his direction of everything isn't too good. There is some potential here for a much more entertaining story but the writing, the performances and the direction aren't strong enough to make it so. Overall, this isn't a bad film particularly but its no more than a fairly mediocre entry in a well-worn sub-genre.
