Entertaining, Quirky but not the greatest.

Rating: 7/10 (11 February 2004)

I found that this movie almost offered too much to be true when I first read about it. Tarantino alone would make me watch this movie, not considering the draw power that Harvey Keitel and Juliette Lewis have over me in terms of other great films they have both been in. I was unsure of how George Clooney would act in a role written by Tarantino, but to my surprise he handled it very well. I felt that Clooney and Keitel pulled together the entire film as it was dangering close to falling apart.
I enjoyed Tarantino's screen play and his acting as well as they both offered a unique style of quirky humour that only Tarantino can deliver. The movie did alter extremely suddenly at one point, which I knew was approaching but I was disappointed as I had begun to like the charismatic start to the film and the dialogue of the characters.

I'd say that this film is entertaining, its definately worthy of a few watches but I'm yet to be convinced on both Vampire movies and movies directed by Robert Rodriguez. Very good, but not great.
