Both keep coming back to the same thing: love

The difference: The critics' underdog of the pair

Common ground: love
The difference: Leans harder into drama than True Romance does

The same preoccupation in both: cocaine
The difference: Takes it somewhere less kinetic than True Romance does

Kinetic where it counts, gritty underneath
The difference: Sits closer to western than True Romance does

Both are built on the same subject: life on the run
The difference: Made in the 2010s, in a different era of the craft

One thread runs through both: detective

Tony Scott working the same nerve twice

A 1980s answer to the same itch

Action with a pulse of momentum, in both cases

Romantic crime in both cases
