Thelma and Louise
One of the most beautiful looking movies I have ever seen. Ridley Scott made a visually captivating and resonant movie that captured such beautiful sceneries in America. It provided a beautiful backdrop to
Thelma
and
Louise
as they had the roadtrip of their lifetime (which is sadly literally)
The movie started out that seemed to be headed into a movie about girls having fun but an unfortunate (or in their case was it a blessing in disguise) incident led them to something both of them never imagined.
Susan Sarandon and Geena Davis gave tour de force performances as they embodied their roles perfectly. It's hard to tell which one gave the better performance there are times that I think Sarandon is better and there are times that I think Davis is better. I guess it just means that repeated viewings make you see important details of their acting.
I always regard the ending of the movie as one of the best and one of the most memorable (together with Seven, Casablanca, Butch Cassidy to name a few). When I first saw it, I was just in shock, in awe, moved at how the movie turned out to be. And every time I see the movie it never fails to captivate me. Truly one the most perfect endings in movie history.

Classic, but what about those Special Features?
I'd echo some other reviewers' comments -- why does this listing, and why do some reviews, describe a documentary and cast interviews and trailers and other bonus features to this
edition
when I and many others don't have these at all? How is it that some people get fully functional or complete discs and others do not? Caveat emptor. I'm very disappointed to not have access to bonus features that I paid for.
Apart from that, which is my main reason to speak up, there isn't much remaining to be said in this space about "
Thelma
and
Louise
", a movie full of wit, heart, intelligence, and great cinematic style. The audio commentary tracks are far above the norm -- Scott's is very informative and revealing, and the comments of stars Davis and Sarandon and scripter Kourie are by turns droll and perceptive. It's like watching this film with a bunch of good buddies. Davis suggests at one point that she and Sarandon ought to maybe go out together and drive around and surprise people -- what a terrific lark that would be!
An amazing and powerful movie that is every bit as relevant and emotive as it was in 1991. (And this is a guy writing.)

Thelma & Louise Special Edition
Great Value. Great Movie. What else can I say!
Geena Davis, Susan Sarandon & very HOT Brad Pitt.
Not a Chick Flick
This film is not so much a Chick Flick as much as it is an adventure film about waking up and finding yourself. Some see it as an anti-man movie, but I always thought it was more about women taking their life back and taking control of their own destiny. Most of all it's about women not being defined by men.
Early on
Louise
is the strong charcter and
Thelma
seems to be the weak one, but by the end they have both grown into someone who had been hiding inside all along.
Louise lets down her guard and comes to terms with her past and Thelma becomes the strong, independant women she never knew she was.
Two ordinary Southern women become outlaw-hero's in a matter of days.
It's a high-speed movie that will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire time you watch it.
In the end they take back their life, no matter how many HATED the ending.

Missing "Extras"???
Great movie, but we can't find some of the "Extras" -- Glen Frey's music video "Part of Me, Part of You", story-board for chase scenes, etc. Where are they???
