Summary: HEY DJ! What a great movie! www.heydjmovie.com
Review: Yeah, hi. I loved Kill Bill. I also love KB2. The only problem with KB2? Not enough action. And no fight scenes with David Carradine. But hey, other than that Kill Bill is flawless. I would have liked to have seen the anime sequence done with real actors though. And I would have liked more of Michael Madsen.I am thrilled that David Carradine starred in this. He looks incredile for a cat his age. He is pure evil. One of the best movie bad guys ever! And this is QT's BEST movie ever! I can't wait for KB3! And if you are a QT and Elvis fan check out the new film called HEY DJ at www.heydjmovie.com! I saw the film HEY DJ it and it looks cool, fun, and quirky. A great little movie. It reminded me of Tarantino's work and his being a big time Elvis fan. I think Madsen has a little Elvis in his performance in KB1 & 2!

Summary: say ........ CHEESE!*
Review: MR. TARENTINO has provided us with another rare gastronimical treat - this time not only for the eye [one or two] but the stomach! THE GORE? Get over it folks [rememeber the delicious momenent between De Niro and Fonda in 'Jackie Brown'? More of it here ...] - although I would keep the kiddies away 'finding Nemo' while viewing this delightfully presented, mounted, executed tale, performed with such aplomb by the stellar cast - headed by Miss Thurman and "the Bride 'gone' wronged". There's always humor present, so its not that heavy [The Great Pekinpah!], and Daryl Hannah has never looked more alluring in a nurses uniform complete with the Red Cross logoed eyepatch [rivalled only by Paula Pretisses Nurse in "What's New Pussycat?"]. IN some instances the violence is close to MONTY PYTHON's antics and you do expect the censor to pop up and caution those faint of heart ~ but it works perectly - somehow along the lines of 'Natural Born Killers' [although that one is slightly too grim]. LUCY LIU & VIVECA FOX bring that extra touch of humanity to their killer instinct ~ Great Breakfast scene with Fox and Thurman, and Miss Liu adds dignity to a role that could easily have been shrewish. EXPERTLY lenses, perfect Art and Costume direction - who could ask for anything more? [The snow scene with Thurman and Liu}. NOW, If only Mr. Tarentino would pay homage to the BOB ALDRICH movies ['Whatever Happened to Baby Jane' - with a twist ....] Would be nice to see Miss Liu in possibly a remake of "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing?" One can hope ......

Summary: Film after film, Tarantino is amazing
Review: Kill Bill Volume One is one of the greatest films of all time. After seeing terrible movies come out of the past few years other than films that were predestined to be huge hits (LOTR, Harry Potter) its great to see a film that lives up to the name of Quentin Tarantino and is originally directed. Though based on the character "the Bride", I felt the film was truly original. Quentin Tarantino is an ingenious man who uses blood and gore to sell the film but also uses those scenes to tell the emotion of the story. The film is great and I loved every aspect of it, and also, Kill Bill Volume Two is also amazing. People who hate this movie just dont understand the old spaghetti westerns and the sarcasm and creativity of Tarantino. He's a genious, like it or not, and you can't deny that, when he makes a film as brilliant as Kill Bill Volume One after making masterpieces like Pulp Fiction and Reservoir Dogs, which together the two Kill Bill Movies can top. I mean, the shock of the twists and turns of the film, not enough can be said about it. I recommend this film to people who have levels of understanding and aren't into "bubblegum pop culture" (the idiots who are won't understand this). Stay strong with the people who hate it, they're just dumb, impatient, and have no respect for the entirety of film culture.

Summary: First rate action flick
Review: Kill Bill is an exhilarating rollercoaster ride of visuals and sound, and in my opinion the finest of all Tarantino films. This striking tale of absolute revenge will not appeal to everyone, but it should. A smart, savvy script, great performances, unbelievable camera work, heart-pounding action scenes and a pulsating soundtrack puts this at the top of my must-see movie list. The DVD contains the wonderful DTS audio option and a fine "making of" featurette. Don't miss this one.

Summary: Too much fun for one movie...
Review: Tarantino, admittedly, loves movies. It shows. As much as his films may be an "homage" to other films, he can take this and run with it, creating the most wonderful and original scenarios. I don't believe he's ever made a bad film, though everyone isn't ready for his quirky approach. "Kill Bill, Vol. I" is loaded with inspired tributes to loads of "genre-cinema". Tributes to Sergio Leone, Brian de Palma, Anime and Kung-Fu films are obvious. Casting David Carradine was truly inspired. Also his use of color and editing are brilliant. The '70's references are fun and his culture-clash references are great. Uma Thurman is truly amazing, in a controlled, multi-layered performance that leaves the viewer breathless. Her energy is to be applauded. Can't wait to see "Vol. II".

Summary: Love it...
Review: or hate it. When it comes to Quentin Tarantino, there is no middle ground. Personally, I loved it (as well as Volume 2, a wacky yet mature conclusion to the homage-fest that was Volume 1). Everything from the cinematography to the way Tarantino strategically places music throughout his films, Quentin gets better with each outing. The House of Blue Leaves sequence alone will be studied in film schools for years to come. The PERFECT action sequence from a director who has never done an action sequence before. The pacing, the music, the use of color (from black and white to the silhouetted fight), the hilarity of limbs flying everywhere. Tarantino is the man. No one can question his ability to get the most out of his actors. Where can I start? Travolta and Jackson in "Pulp Fiction". Grier and Forster in "Jackie Brown". And virtually everyone (especially Thurman and Carradine) in "Kill Bill". And a little ditty from Tom Moore, taken from an earlier review: "This film features a couple of vengeful females trying to be tough like men.Its a predictable overused theme in many films today and americans are growing bored with it.Watching men do fight scenes is far more entertaining,especially remembering that men invented Kung Fu and sword fighting.Men invented physical toughness too." Boy, I don't know if I even want to touch that one. Feeling a little insecure there, Tom? Have to defend the notion that men are better at being big and bad to boost your feelings of masculinity? Personally, I enjoyed watching Uma kick some ace. Here's one American who's not tired of seeing some women kick tail (as long as it's done the right way; i.e. NOT Charlie's Angels).

Summary: Brilliant movie making
Review: I bought this DVD, without even seeing the film in the first place. I didn't see it at the theatres because of all the negative hype on the "glorified violence". After seeing this film, I can say that it is violent, yes, but without the gore. If you want real gore, go see something like Silence of the Lambs, or better yet, The Passion of the Christ. The violence here is on the level of comic books, and in the tradition of the old samurai films (the 'baby and carriage' series comes to mind). It is a pure delight to see how the film is woven together masterfully, any film student will find it intellectually and artistically stimulating.

Summary: Exciting from start to finish!!!
Review: (See above for synopsis)
No point in rehashing the storyline for you - you can read that in the synopsis above. Just my opinion of the film is all thats required here... This truly is an outstanding film:
Incredible action sequences, great characters (especially the 17 year old Japanese assassin) excellent casting and as has become expected of QT, fantastic music. QT has mixed so many exciting genres of film together to make one truly exciting and stylish film. Spaghetti Western, Martial Arts / Japanese Anime, and whilst its a brutal film, its also very funny. I love the way that to beat the censors, one of the goriest (and lengthy) scenes changes to black and white to beat cuts. This adds to the overall style of the film. This film is so exciting, it has made Kill Bill Vol2 my most anticipated film of 2004. KILL BILL KICKS ASS!!! The lack of any worthwhile DVD extras are disappointing - I imagine they are being saved for a final box set later in 2004.
