Kil Bill (maybe spoilers)

Post by The Cleric »

I'm writing an article/review for my school newspaper, and I need some people's opinions on the movie. If you feel like it, write 1 sentence about the movie. Thanks.

It wasn't worth it.
Besides the massive overkill of violence, violence, and even more violence, not to forget litres of blod, a plot worth its name would've been a decent idea.
Grossly overrated movie...

Tied for best movie I've seen this year. Extremely stylized and over-the-top, but extremely good.

I really liked the visuals combined with the music.


I'm getting a little tired of QT telling the story in bits and pieces in non-chronological order.

I liked it. It seemed like a live-action Anime to me, though I don't watch that much anime.

1. I've never really been greatly taken by Tarantino.

2. I'm massively attached to mrtial arts films, their traditions and setpieces.

3. Film. Of. The. Year.

Kill Bill is the most fun I've had at the cinema in an incredibly long time, ever single scene is a brilliant example of all that a movie scene should be, it's twice as adventurous as you'll see in any other film in the last or next ten years (as witnessed by the Production IG section and filming half of it in a language that nobody understands), and it has a soundtrack that's been on continouous repeat for the last few days. You might find people say that the early part of the film is disjointed and disrupt the film, but they're Mad And Wrong, because all the early scenes are self contained masterpieces of humour and suspense (I defy anyone to watch the opening scene, with Nancy in the background, and not see the brilliance of what it leads up to.)

Oh yeah, and it has Chiyaki Kuriyama. Who is definitely someone to watch for, having played not only the psychotic Go Go Yubari, but also the exact antithesis of the same character as the picture of elegance Takako Chigusa in Battle Royale. We look forward to whatever she does next.

Kill Bill is dark, violent, retro, not for children, and a great way to part with $6.50.

If you put this question in your school paper, i'll give you $5.

On a Scale of 1 - 10, with "1" being the matrix Reloaded, and "10" being hardcore lesbian pornography, how would you rate "Kill Bill vol. 1" ?
