Kill Bill Vol. 2

Pros: Pretty pictures
Cons: Paint by numbers direction; nonsensical, monkey-authored script, acting, shameless ego stroking.

Kill Bill, Vol. 2 (2004) "I'd rather have a 'Royale with Cheese.'" George Chabot “… a gold-plated turd.” film critic Waynio “Tasteless, odorless crud.” Sol, “Soylent Green“ “You ...

Pros: Thurman and the surviving DVAS are fine
Cons: Story is borrowed from a character in Pulp Fiction

Here comes The Bride again - and she's not necessarily wearing white. The Bride (Uma Thurman) is out to conclude the movie's stated mission in "Kill Bill Vol. 2," which brings her face to face with the surviving members of the Deadly Viper Assassination ...

Pros: A very unexpected and beautiful ending. Major suspense. Nice atmosphere and more crazy music.
Cons: The most extreme version of slow for the first 40 minutes.

The following is an imaginary excerpt from Quentin Tarantino's journal. May 16, 2003 Just returned from the matinee showing of The Matrix: Reloaded. I don't claim to be the keenest eyeball on the fly, but something tells me that trilogy ...

Pros: Concludes Volume 1, better character development
Cons: not as many fight scenes, not enough character development

Kill Bill: Volume 2 picks up at almost the exact point you would expect. Two members of the Deadly Viper Assassin Squad have already met their untimely demise in the name of revenge, and Black Mamba, a.k.a.The ...

Pros: Outstanding acting, writing, visual effects and soundtrack
Cons: None

I really enjoyed "Kill Bill, Vol. 1". It had action, great cinematography, great music and excellent acting. However, the movie became a parody of action movies during many of the fight scenes. Blood flowed in record amounts and one lady was able to ...

Pros: nearly all
Cons: few

Where Kill Bill: Volume 1 ended with a dizzying bang, a clandestine revelation and an uncertain future, Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill: Volume 2 finalizes on a disparate note, obviously more conclusive, and initially alarming but warming ...

Pros: Intriguing direction and compelling story
Cons: Lacklustre script that fails to build on its own potential.

For all of Tarantino’s naysayers about his graphically violent, sleek and ruthlessly efficient assassin of a movie, the one fact many people overlooked is how, despite in essence being only half a film, Kill Bill: Volume One managed to easily ...

Pros: -
Cons: -

Kill Bill Vol. One came out last year to eagerly waiting fans of Quentin Tarantino and while it was well received, the general movie going audience just didn’t get the connection. It was a good movie; one that was far different from any film ...

Pros: It's a great homage to the Chop-socky and Spaghetti Western genres
Cons: It is still a low-brow chop-socky kind of movie

The Kill Bill Project is first and foremost an homage to the genre films Quentin (the mouth) Tarantino loves most of all—the Shaw Brothers kung fu movies of the 70s (Five Fingers of Death), the Japanese Samurai movies but especially Lone Wolf (Cormanized ...

Pros: That patented Tarantino movie dialogue.
Cons: Choppy feel.

The problem with Kill Bill Vol 2 is the exact same problem with Kill Bill Vol 1: the movie would have worked a lot better as a single film and the final product comes off as overblown. Overblown isn't necessarily a bad thing in the Quentin Tarantino ...

Pros: Script, Action, direction, acting is top notch.
Cons: Slow and plodding at times.

Quentin Tarantino is back. Back in the director's seat where he most assuredly belongs, away from ill-advised forays into the acting arena, and he has thankfully has returned, quite literally, with a vengeance. Fist there was Kill Bill Vol.1 ...

Pros: …
Cons: …

WARNING: I’m going to be giving out major details about Vol. 1. If you haven’t seen Vol. 1, then don’t read this review. As you might have guessed from the title of the movie, Kill Bill Vol. 2 is the second installment of a series. In Vol. ...

Pros: Visually good. Great acting.
Cons: Please read review.

Mr. Tarantino, Hey, Q. How goes it? I'm okay. Perhaps an introduction is an order. My name is Jessi Coplin and I am one of your biggest fans. For some reason, I have a feeling you are unconvinced. Perhaps it's my two star rating that I gave your ...

Pros: the directing, the little bits of noir, the screenplay, Uma Thurman's performance
Cons: drags a bit over the first half

Please note that this review reveals much of this movie's plot, and has spoilers. I included the spoilers in order to make points in my review of the film. Consider yourself warned! I said it in my review of ...

Pros: Sharp direction, exciting kung-fu action, quality acting
Cons: Slow beginning; not very deep plot

By the standards of film themes, revenge plots are pretty simple. You've seen the film dozens of times: hero loses everything to Nefarious Evil-Doer(s), hero trains in (insert exotic path to vengeance), then sets out to kill all those who wronged them ...
