CommentsXp Best movie ever!
SteinMo What a freaking movie. So many twists and turns. Absolutely intense from start to finish.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
samermaty We are also used to the magnificence of Tarantino films , we always expect something original in his movies Regardless of his usual style, Tarantino combined his style with the splendor of Japanese action and because of that this movie will one of the best action movies in history of cinema . I can tell you that the movie is well acted and well written but We all know that these elements are distinct in all Quentin Tarantino films
NikkoFranco I want to give my thanks to Quentin , first , for bringing a comic book material and giving it a life of its own , second , for his visionary way of directing- meaning he pays tribute to the Chinese films we watch on lazy weekends where kids like us pretend play with wooden sticks pretending it's a samurai sword- , third - for the continuous and tireless experimentation , perhaps because of that only he comes with this brand of crazy- his unique trademark of crazy. I have seen all his films and this so far is my favorite dish from him ( including the second volume) . Uma Thurman, Lucy Liu, Michael Madsen, Daryl Hannah and Co. are all memorable and exciting to watch. But the combat at the restaurant is the most mental scene one has ever seen on a movie. Artistic , bloody action that leaves a lot to one's imagination because it is also collagen with comic book frames to somehow lessen the gore but still, full of humor ( the rhyming names, the wagon , the whistling) and a well of surprises for the viewer. Stu-pen-dous!
Smoreni Zmaj At the time "Kill Bill" came out, movies were a totally minor thing in my life. I watched them relatively often, but I did not payed any attention to "details". I had no idea who the director was, and the question is whether I knew at all what the director was. Besides Uma Thurman, I think I never heard of other actors back then. I rated movies on a very simple scale - whether it's fun or not. This one was fun for a ten. Fifteen years and several thousand films later, I look at movies from a completely different angle and "fun" is no longer at the top of the criteria that distinguish good movies from bad ones. Now I analyze them in more detail and I still haven't found any flaws in this one.It could be said that Quentin Tarantino's talent is a gift from God, but I think it's far more likely that he sold his soul to the Devil. The lowest rating I have ever given to one of his films is nine, and I'm not a "fanboy". "Kill Bill" is an action thriller, and for me action films are the lowest form of the seventh art. But Tarantino's ability to create an action movie which is also an art film is fascinating. The story is crazy and great, but the least important. Camera work, fight choreography, use of color and sound and feeling for details make this film a masterpiece of cinema. The cast is more than good, and Tarantino manages to get the most out of them. I doubt that any of these actors have ever given a better performance than in this movie. And, of course, music! Music is very diverse, totally unexpected, often even unsuitable for the scenes it follows, yet again in such a perfect (dis)harmony with the divine scenery and crazy choreography, that it all leaves the viewer breathless. For movies like this one even ten is depreciation.10/10
Pjtaylor-96-138044 Tarantino's first foray into self-indulgence comes in the form of this hyper-stylized 'kung-fu' homage, the first part of which arrives with almost no substance or character depth of any kind. What you're left with is 'Kill Bill: Vol 1 (2003)', a film that manages to occasionally entertain with some wild action-sequences and pulpy references but often falls flat due to the fact that the thin plot is stretched to fit feature length. The entire movie seemingly exists just so that the extravagant final fight can still exist somewhere, outside of the second part where it simply wouldn't fit. 6/10
