Pros: Great Action Sequences, Good Performances
Cons: Doesn't Really Feel Like a Horror Movie... Is That Really a Con Though?
I've noticed a huge decline in quality in the more modern horror movies; modern meaning anything made later then 1995. I can't exactly describe it, but lately it seems like horror movie makers feel that they can be more successful by putting most of a...

Pros: A Hilarious, Violent Film from Quentin Tarantino & Robert Rodriguez.
Cons: At Times Predictable & Over-The-Top.
Ah, Halloween. What a wonderful time of the year for costumes, candy, and great movies. Gee, what should we watch? Vampires? Zombies? Werewolves? Blood? Well, for this Ten Days of Halloween W/O led by our host JiggyJay, I opted for Vampires. Blo ...

From Dusk Till Dawn: Miramax Dimension Films/ A Band Apart/ Los Hooligans Productions
Rating: USA: R
If you've ever seen Robert Altman's film The Player, then you know what the stereotypical Hollywood pitch session looks like. In that...

Pros: Clooney, Tarantino, script, humor, gore FX
Cons: Second half, Keitel, Lewis, special effects
I had been hearing about From Dusk Till Dawn for years now, but it wasn’t until a few days ago that I finally had my chance to view the film. Headed by Robert Rodriguez of Desperado in the director’s seat and co-starring Quentin Tarantino ...

Pros: Pulp gore action fang fest.
Cons: Not really. You know it's Tarantino going in, so quit whining.
From Dusk ‘Till Dawn (1996) Directed by Robert Rodriguez, Written by Quentin Tarantino. ”Do you think this is who I am? I am a professional thief, I don't run around killing people I don't have to.” Seth Gecko. Body count, ...

Pros: Some great fights, the documentary
Cons: A conceptual nightmare
The thing is, it should have been fantastic. A Tarantino script, directed by Robert Rodriguez and starring George Clooney. A virtual Who’s Who of hip Hollywood, mid-90s style. And yet it’s a mess. The plot gives us a pretty good clue as to where From ...

Pros: George Clooney, Juliette Lewis, and Harvey Keitel; Blood, Gore and Vampires
Cons: Tarantino tries to act! Oh no!
Call me crazy but I had to be convinced that George Clooney was hot. What was I thinking, right? Alas, it’s true, for a long time I didn’t believe the hype. Why did I change my mind? Well, I watched Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez’s ...

by Chad9976 - Top 1000, Apr 07 '08
Pros: Excellent cast; some originality; a few funny and exciting moments.
Cons: Totally bizarre; extremely violent and gory; not very intense as a whole.
The basic premise to "From Dusk Till Dawn" is, "What if the tough criminals from brutal crime films found themselves trapped in a cliche, grotesque, horror flick?" The answer should be a great satire, but all we get is a violent bloodbath with a ...

by dylgon , Aug 24 '05
Pros: Suspense, great acting, action, special effects, interesting, funny, campy & cheesy
Cons: The complete change in plot and genre halfway through film, could be more scary
I’m not the biggest Quentin Tarantino fan, or the biggest Robert Rodriguez fan. In fact, from what I’ve seen, I really don’t like either of their work, although I haven’t seen a lot of their movies. I saw Kill Bill Volume 1 and thought it ...

by quipowerty , Dec 14 '03
Pros: Salma Hayek is almost naked.
Cons: The second half has more plot holes than you can imagine.
The story of Dusk Till Dawn begins with George Clooney as Seth Gecko and Quentin Tarantino as his brother Richard Gecko taking some middle-aged woman hostage after a store robbery. From there the plot disintegrates into a series of serious plot holes ...

by swoeste - Top 1000, Dec 25 '01
Pros: Well done and graphic gore, good fight sequences, Clooney, Tarantino, Keitel put in good performances.
Cons: Film shifts abruptly midway, slow start, Clooney seems uncomfortable in role at times.
What can I say? I finally saw "From Dusk Till Dawn" on December 22nd, years after it was released in the theaters. In fact, two sequels were made before I saw it. Why? I get tired of having my enjoyment of movies (at $10 a ticket) destroyed by...

Pros: Vampires Being Brutally Murdered, Salma Hayek almost naked.
Cons: Nothing. If you don't like strong language, violence. This movie is not for you.
"From Dusk Till Dawn" is easily my favorite Vamp flick of all time. It has the coolest characters, the coolest dialogue and the coolest action sequences. This movie is VERY COOL.
To me this film is flawless. The makers wanted to go...

by gun_shy , Jan 08 '01
Pros: Great dialog, some acting, great special effects, action
Cons: Lacks identity, a lot of stupid lines, too gross at times, not scary, boring at times
Robert Rodriguez became pretty famous after El Mariachi, his tiny budget debut that wowed audiences at Sundance. The sequel, Desperado, didn't see the same fate. Though it has established a cult following (much like this movie), it never really reached...

by white_hat , Apr 26 '00
Pros: Bends genre wonderfully and keeps us guessing where it's going to go.
Cons: The blood and gore gets a little tiresome late in the film, there's not really a lot of subtext here
This film is at least two movies in one. If anyone reading this has seen no advertising for this film, knows nothing about it, and would like a totally bizarre viewing experience, get up right now (don't finish this review) and go rent this movie. No,...
