An Arkansas waitress and a housewife shoot a rapist and take off in a '66 Thunderbird.
It is something you don't expect from Ridley Scott who generally makes ambitious sci-fi films and historic epics. Thelma and Lousie is essentially a road comedy with some caricatured characters, Hans Zimmer's music and fantastic visuals. Scott is said to have watched Terence Malick's 'Badlands' for inspiration and that is reflected in the film. It also reminded me of Tony Scott and Quentin Tarantino's 'True Romance'. It is certainly one of Scott's best film.
Rating: 4/5
