NBK hit theaters in 1995 & the movies are of 2 totally different stories. Love & a .45 is more of a 'Wild At Heart' rip-off! just kidding.

It is true! It was written and made first. Not sure if it was actually released first though.

They were being made at the same time. The only difference? NBK had stars in it and was too long and exhausting. Oliver Stone runs movies into the ground. I am always begging for his movies to end long before they do.
If anything, they are both Bonnie and Clyde rip-offs. Love and a .45 is much better in my opinion. In 'Love and a .45' it's the actors on drugs instead of the director. Oliver Stone could be a good director but his brain is fried.

Um, did you know that right next to the title, ON EVERY MOVIE IN THE IMDB, they have the year it was made?!!!??!!!

Bonnie and Clyde rip-offs?



Both this and NBK are both loosely based on the same true story, which isn't Bonnie and Clyde. Charlie Starkweather.

Um, no, they have the date it was RELEASED and according to that NBK came first, but L&.45 was actually written first and filmed at virtually the same time which means it couldn't be a rip-off.

This is much better than Natural Born Killers. Oliver Stone doesn't know how to create a movie that doesn't make the viewer want it to end and hour before it does.

It was very similar to natural born killers and thats probably why i liked it so much, but i wouldn't say it was a rip off they where both made around the same time.
