A mindless, tasteless, dull gorefest

Rating: 2/10 (17 February 2008)

From Dusk Till Dawn (1996)
It's meant to be a B-movie, cheap, sleazy entertainment with virtually no storyline aimed to provide 'cheap thrills'. Well I don't care; I thought this was a waste of time and I was neither entertained nor excited. Although I do like Tarantino's style and sometimes Robert Rodriguez, I cannot credit From Dusk Till Dawn with anything. If I was entertained I would have awarded the film a higher rating, but since it was both flat and stupid it gets a very low score.
The first act of the film until the characters enter the bar in Mexico is just watchable: How come I liked the first part better? I thought it might lead to something mildly interesting and the quick hitting humour from the Tarantino script was relatively enjoyable.
On another note, I have to say that Quentin Tarantino's performance in this film is beyond awful (or is it because this is suppose to be a bad film, so the actors were advised to act badly?!!!) and he fully deserved his Razzie Nomination for 'Worst Supporting Actor'.
Uninteresting, tedious cinema.
2/10
