Reviews
Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Bob This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Malcolm Lusby two of the most ineffective "assassins" in history in a plot that completely rips off the first 2 mons of pulp fiction. 3:19 seconds in to watching them fire about 1000 rounds from unsilenced guns into a guy (instead of just shooting him in the head) and I gave up. If this filmhas any redeeming qualities - I will be surprised - but based on the first 3m 20s - it's truly truly awful. Last movie I saw that was SO bad I gave up in under 10 mins was Suicide Squad - so it's WORSE than that!!!!!
elodie-r What a poetic massacre drama! I love the absurd pitch - it is crazy. Love the girls motivated by getting a dress and the assassin crying behind the trash after an intimidating encounter. It's like a Japanese manga. This is so much fresher than a Tarantino, I like better this genre ! Tarantino takes himself way too seriously ! I regret though that the girls seem to not be enough professional, and that there was not more action. I really missed the action ! But the poetic sweet mood is very innovating, I'd like more of this please. Loved this line "What's with the cookies?! Wait, what if it's only the tip of the iceberg? What if he also makes brownies ???" Excellent !
oowawa I had great expectations for this movie. I mean, how could you miss with the great James Gandolfini and wonderful Saoirse Ronan as headliners (and Alexis Bledel is certainly eyeworthy), and yet the first time through this film I did not enjoy the experience. Then it dawned on me, well, duh, this film is intended to be a Tarantino parody, and it went up several stars in my estimation. Of course, making a parody of a QT film is problematic, because Quentin films are already parodies of other genres such as kung fu, grindhouse, and noir. And so, in a sense, the filmmaker is making a parody of a parody. I mean, Saoirse playing patty-cakes with Danny Trejo? The scene is totally Quentinesque to a ludicrous extreme. And that's parody.Other motifs that echo and exaggerate Tarantino's style include the implausible violence sequences that can only exist in some alternate film universe (think Black Mamba single-handedly wiping out a small army of yakuza in "Kill Bill,") and the interminable gabfest that fills out a QT script (these people love to talk and talk and talk)... And so, as a parody of a parody, and for its very impressive cast, this film is worth an amused watch.
TravisMay108 I thought this was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I got it mainly because I was looking for more things that the Orphan Black chick is in, and because it had the late, great Mr. Gandolfini. Well, Tatiana is in the movie for about 60 seconds, for one thing.Sometimes movies can be outrageous and unrealistic and still work because of elements of style, great dialogue, etc., but this movie was just stupid. It had tiny bits of style, e.g., the scenes when they were dressed up as nuns on a job. But, the situation, the writing, the nonsensical decision making...it was just too much.I don't think Alexis Bledel did anything to make it better. Maybe if they had a more likable person in that role it would have helped. I recommend that you don't waste your time, unless you really miss Tony Soprano and just fast forward to all of his speaking parts.
