Customer Reviews of To Live and Die in L.A.
Ok, could have been a lot better This movie had good story and actors who were kind of starting in the biz. The guy thats on CSI now was really bowlegged when he was younger, he had no sex appeal for that part and the little guy who played his partner just wasen't believeable as a street tough cop. Wiliam DaFoe was excellent as the genius counterfiter. When he's on screen, you just know he's going to be a big star. Enjoy!
Great Movie!
I've seen this movie several times and absolutely love it. William Peterson and Wilem Dafoe are at their best. There is action and a twist ending. Also one of the best car chases in film.
Mood altering, mind altering.
I saw another review of this movie that explained that when it originally hit theatres, critics trashed it and audience gave it a pass. I think I can explain. I was in my mid twenties when this movie came out. And I remember seeing it. And I remember the brash exhuberance of the 80's very well. I'm really not so shallow as to have actually thought this of the film, but I do remember thinking that it was not going to sit well with the current crowd. "Don't drag me down, man, I'm tryin' ta get my groove on here... and you're a real downer, dude..."

>The 80's are about Madonna... Tears for Fears... the Brat Pack... Ferris Bueller... Pretty in Pink... der Commissar and David Bowie. And then there THIS thing... This gritty, dirty, depressing, violent, bummer of an experience.

>Nobody wins. Everyone loses. Everything. And like in real life, they lose it all SUDDENLY too. Blam! "Wait... That's it? it's over? What the hell..."

>I think that's why I watch it at least once a year. You FEEL the heat, the humidity, the grime, the tension, the worry, the anger, the hate.

>I saw this move many years before I ever actually had to go to some of the seedier parts of L.A., and once there I remember it being very much the real experience. I actually felt in L.A. like I felt watching the movie. This one and "Less Than Zero" were two of a kind that I feel really captured the mood very well.

>GREAT movie. Wrong time-period. If it had come out in the late 90's it would have rocked the box-office (IMO).
