Savages is a film that is hectic and takes the viewer underground, into a completely different reality. From an open relationship between a trio, to a marijuana business that attracts a drug-cartel and the kidnapping of the main female character, there is so much happening in this film by Stone. With actors like Blake Lively, Taylor Kitsch, and Aar...
Oliver Stone’s first foray into a realm he would comfortably operate in for the next two decades, Salvador is a deft critique of the US military apparatus, and its meddling in the affairs of foreign governments. Seen through the eyes of a war journalist navigating the street politic of Salvador, James Woods perfectly encapsulates the scumbag charis...
Adapting Eric Bogosian's stage play of the same name, Talk Radio, Stone and DP Robert Richardson displayed the cinematic tenacity of their camerawork to make a film largely set in one radio studio, totally engrossing, vibrant, and tense. Borrowing a lot from Brian De Palma’s bag of visual tricks, Stone showed his ability to be a cineaste, but mixed...

With Michael Douglas reprising his role of Gordon Gekko, this sequel to Stone's 1987 infamous filmtakes place after 23 years of the original. As always, Stone has reflected on the real life economic crisis, with the film bringing in the 2007 - 2008 Global Financial Crisis.

“Greed is good.” The much-paraphrased quote from Wall Street antagonist Gordon Gekko, played with unbridled financial sleaze by Michael Douglas (his only Oscar win for acting), is only part of the story. Oliver Stone’s film details the lows financial sector gurus will stoop to for their portfolios stake and how dangerous unbridled ambition can be. ...
Prophetic in its detailing and portrayal of football life in regard to young offensive coaches, mobile quarterbacks, and also how awful the football players are treated and how their health is put on the back burner for the team's personal gain, Oliver Stone'sAny Given Sundayis a magnificently violent opus. The film is shot in a fervently disorient...
Natural Born Killers is an insidious hellscape through the lives of serial killer couple Nicky and Mallory.

When Oliver Stone was a young man, he volunteered to fight in the Vietnam War. In part, he admits, to breaking away from the cozy life his father had given him.

- Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps (2010) It’s actually quite amazing how dull this film is. Given the period when it was made, just right after the Gordon Gekko’s of the world wrecked the economy, a sequel to “Wall Street” would have been ideal.

- The Hand (1981) A horror film called “The Hand” gives you the impression it might be a cheesy film. Watching the finished project, you realize that your initial impressions were correct.
