Kill Bill *possible spoilers*


Recommended Posts

Just got back from a sneak peak of Kill Bill, and must say I immediately went to my movie collection for the first romantic comedy I could find. Its so overly violent...not funny, too messy/bloody, and not even that well done. The story is decent, but just as I had suspected, this 3 hit wonder has failed. I didn't see all the hype for him, and still dont, and don't think he deserved an ounce of it. The movie would have been way better removing even 1/2 the violence and blood.

I give this movie 1 out of 5 aliens.

:alien:

I too saw a sneak peek, and agree with 'unique'

Though the first half was pretty well done and enjoyable to watch, that enjoyment soon turns sour and leaves a horrible feeling in your mind. Once the anime starts half way through the film, you too might as well walk out because its all down hill from there. (I counted about 10 people who walked out)

Though the action is intense, its nothing amazing. Seeing blood and body parts flying everywhere gets tiring after about 10 minutes (and it goes on for probably 30). I must say if all the excess blood was taken out, and there was a little more focus on the plot and less on 'how many limbs can we cut off this scene' they maybe, just maybe it would have been a great film.

But unfortunatly this film is just way too over the top, and becomes pretty gruesome in a hurry. Luckily it was a sneak peek and was free so no money was lost by me.

I would have to give this blood fest a 1 out of 5 ninjas

:ninja:

Save your money and just poke out your eyes, it'll feel and look just like the movie.

Well not exactly:

http://asia.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?...storyID=3573782

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Call it part homage, part parody, but brace yourself for nonstop severed feet, arms, heads, hatchets in foreheads and a sea of blood in Quentin Tarantino's latest movie, "Kill Bill."

The martial arts extravaganza from the writer/director Tarantino, who shot to fame with gritty, violent films like "Reservoir Dogs" (1992) and "Pulp Fiction" (1994), is his first movie in six years.

Tarantino sees "Kill Bill" as a salute to the martial arts movies of his youth and his notion of "girl power." The film stars Uma Thurman as a betrayed female assassin awakening from a four-year coma to seek revenge on an elite band of assassins that slaughtered her wedding party and gave her up for dead.

The marathon blood-letting, which takes classic kung fu film carnage to the level of parody, has divided critics. One reviewer in Business Week noted that the movie "sends more separated arms and legs to the floor than Hollywood usually does in a year. It left me cold."

The Hollywood Reporter had a different verdict on the film, which it praised as "hugely watchable with jaw-droppingly kinetic fight scenes."

While film aficionados might revel in the directorial artistry, the masterful martial arts displays, the break-neck pacing, the stomach-turning sound effects and off-beat soundtrack, when all the gore is stripped away, there's not much left.

"'Kill Bill' is what's formally known as decadence and commonly known as crap," the New Yorker magazine said of the movie, which has its New York premiere on Tuesday and opens nationally on Friday.

Like it or hate it, more is on the way. The film, which ran over budget and over running-time targets, has been edited into two films. "Kill Bill: Volume 2" is slated for release in February in the longest movie intermission in memory.

Tarantino, who won an Oscar for the "Pulp Fiction" screenplay, calls the movie, also starring Lucy Liu, Daryl Hannah and Vivica A. Fox, the "ultimate girl power" movie.

"I actually want 13-year-old girls to see this movie," he told Reuters Television. "I think this will be very empowering for them."

But with an R rating, meaning adults must accompany those under 17, young girls might not be able to see it.

Hannah also sees the film as empowering to women. "All of the women are warriors and they're not girlie warriors. They're just tough. They're just as tough as a guy would be."

For those of you who have seen the official release in the theater, is the fight scene with about 100 guys in black and white also? if so, good way to ruin an amazing scene Q.T.

Dude Kill.Bill was everything I ever thought it was going to be. SIMPLY AMAZING. A must see in the Theatre. (Y) I envy Q.T.

anyway i dont know what you found in the film so good. the action, sure its good but most people dont go only for the action, if ur only talking about the action its pretty cool but we have seen it all before minus the blood.
