Sadly Over-hyped

Absolutely the worst movie.

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

You people are crazy who are giving this such a low review. This is cinema classic - fantastic, witty dialog, lots of humor, two amazing action scenes, one consisting of an outstanding car stunt that always gives me chills in the stomach, and a great "women's revenge" ending. I could watch this anywhere, any time and be thoroughly entertained. This movie has two distinct halves to it, and both are great. But you have to enjoy the buildup of we'll crafted dialogue. If all you want is mindless crap, don't watch a Tarantino movie.

I feel bad about this, bad mouthing Quentin because he's one of the few who's been on our side. No matter how much cloggy sentimentalised pap the US film industry threw at as, Quentin would be there giving us the stuff that would make a cold night in with just a stack of DVD's, some beer and maybe a few mates in from the pub bearable. Something went wrong with this flick though, it's still got its fair share of the Tarantino flair; those 2+ dialogues executed through his sense of Jo ha kyu that's served him so well. It' just that it all goes wrong in the third act and that kind of frizzles with the whole vibe of the flick.What should happen is Mike gets away with the second murderous attack after a gruelling and bloody ordeal. And then the alternate ending is tagged on body snatchers style, to show him being dealt justice and our heroines making a miraculous return. Instead though, he continues with girly revenge theme but instead of the righteous vindication of Kill Bill it's all a bit miss timed and weak. Of course my ending is a teeny bit contrived, it's just supposed to illustrate the point that Quentin has maybe swallowed a bit too much of the stuff his critics have levelled at him. As a consequence, lately it seems as if he's been chasing -right-on- credits both with his later films and his public pronouncements.

For me, one of the best movies of Quentin Tarantino. With an apparently too basic script, he creates the iconic character of Kurt Russell. The original soundtrack supports all the resources of the director, and there are a lot of winks to old road movies. In summary: Tarantino in pure state.

Death Proof written and directed by Quentin Tarantino (Pulp Fiction) and this movie could tell it had Quentin hand prints all over it but it just didn't feel like most of his other films. I still loved this film and thought it was great and better then some of his other films but Death Proof could have been better if I thought to myself this wasn't Quentin Tarantino. The story involves stuntman Mike played by Kurt Russel who was so entertaining to watch chase two set of girls in his car which I do wish they used it more because it was so unique and cool for a slasher movie. What else I loved about this movie was how it was shoot it was something I had thought about doing for a film myself and it felt like a true homage to 60's and 70's cinema. I would say this movie and this is probably with the work of Quentin Tarantino being able to make his characters extremely cool and bad ass he made the girls seem cool and bad ass in the film. I must mention the work of Greg Nicotero who made some really cool gore scenes but once again wished they used it a lot more. Which set of girls were the best well in my opinion the first set of girls they felt super seventies but the next set of girls meh I only cared for Mary Elizabeth Winstead (10 Cloverfield Lane) who was great as always. Personally I can re watch this movie over and over and I myself think its underrated I would say don't watch this film if your a QT fan and watch it if your a fan of 60's and 70's cinema and hot women getting killed by Kurt Russel.
