the movie was very flat and in no way was it better than the other Terinteno movies.i’d say that this is his flop.that said it wasnt a bad movie,it was just slow and boring at times.the fight seen with all the hench men was painfully long.
the animated story portion was the best part of the whole movie.
P.S. Dear Quinten,Uma has the most ugly toes i have ever seen.please do not devote 15 minutes of screen time close ups to those nasty things in Volume 2!
its not gory,thats the wrong word.its bloody but not gory.for example when limbs get cut of,blood squirts out like a fire hydrante.its supposed to be rediculas but quikly becomes “just another cut off arm” “just another shower of red paint”
u guys suck Kill Bill was the most kick ass movie of all time it rocked so much! i dont care what anyone says but it had a good storyline WICKED fight scenes, great actors and actresses and finally a movie to spruce things up some GORE
the Toronto Sun (this even suprised me) gave it 4 1/2 stars!
PS: Bill is David Carradine, Kwai Chang Caine, the peripatetic Chinese-American Shaolin priest and martial arts master in the innovative series Kung Fu (you dont getta see him in the movie)
thats what i said “u dont see his face” what i suppose u saw david carradine as bill and just said o thats that guy off kung fu. nobody knows who david carradine is so just stfu
Terinteno is one of, if not, my all time favorite directors.
Kill bill did not fail to excite me. Its one of the few movies I’ve actually paid to go see recently. once in theaters and maybe 10 more times on a Post edited DVD rip.
Its not better than pulp fiction, but I think it may still make my top 10 of all time list. im not sure though.
this isnt a bashing thread,i liked the movie.i just didnt like all of it,esspecialy Uma’s feet in the “Pussy Wagon” and the fluffy fight seen at the end.
i was into the movie untill Uma was given the sword,after that it got a little redundant thats all.
I liked it, but then again, what do I know? I’m just a film student.
Seriously though, everyone is entitled to their opinion so calling eachother flamers on such a topic is a little silly. The movie isn’t for everyone. But I liked it.
Yeah, Pulp Fiction was a total accident. He was trying to do a remake of The Posieden Adventure, but screwed up his shots and his editing. Just luck it turned out Great. I know I personally would have rather seen Shelly Winters get that heart needle…
What exactly is your standard against which you measure “overrated”? All directors? All directors of the last two decades? Only those directors who have managed to start with indy films and rise to full studio funding? Orsen Wells and Alfred Hitchcock only?
Give the guy a break. He’s not Moses parting the Red Sea. He’s just an artist working in a particular medium, but one doing it better than the majority of his peers.
I think what Zod was saying is that Terintino’s movies aren’t as good as everyone says he is. But then again that’s more of a matter of opinion. Going by this definition, i think J. K. Rowling, Stephen King, and Setphen Speilberg are WAYYYY overrated. Anyway, i can’t say anthing bad about Terintino. I always appreciate a good cult film director. Kevin Smith made his best movies when he was doing them independantly. But i felt that Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back was dissapointment. Plus, Kevin Smith sold out and did some commercial for a DVD burner or something. I don’t think Terintino will ever get any better, and will really only be remembered for his older films.
A movie about Jay and Silent Bob? Who’d pay to go see that?
<stare>
I liked that… marvellously self-mocking and with more references to his previous films than you could shake a stick at. It was different from his other films, but I didn’t think it suffered because of it.
Hey, if you like Terintino good for you. I personally have not been impressed by any of his films and may be the only person in this forum that thinks Pulp Fiction is crap. None of his movies are anywhere remotely near my Top 10 list.
Xwonka got me right…I just don’t think the hype lives up to what he’s producing and that includes the self-hype factor…he’s a bit of a narcisist…
But that’s the good thing about movies…one mans trash is another mans treasure
