Everybody be cool YOU be cool.

Rating: Null/10 (15 July 2008)

From Dusk till Dawn is that rare movie these days it's a movie willing to take a chance and to try to be what it is a pure escapist film one that tells you at the first scene to shut your brain off you'll enjoy it better that way. People who analyze it too much won't be able to enjoy it for what it is a fun story that has a quick twist in the middle and it is there where the real story begins. In the beginning we meet Seth And Ritchie Gecko two outlaw brothers trying to escape the law and head towards Mexico. It's complicated by Ritchie's poor judgment skills and the fact that he is delusional and that gets them both into trouble. Did I mention that Ritchie is a murdering Sex fiend with no sense of being Subtle whatsoever. Ritchie's idea of solving a problem is by killing who ever he's arguing with at the time. Seth is a master of conversation he would talk his way out of trouble but push him and he'll kill you stone cold dead. The First half is a crime film in which Seth And Ritchie take the Fuller family hostage Ala The desperate hours. They Use the Fuller RV to get into Mexico and wait at the Titty Twister a bar catering to bikers and truckers. Seth And Ritchie are waiting for Carlos a Mexican Crime lord who offers Seth And Ritchie safe Haven in El Rey for thirty percent of their loot. Once we enter the titty twister the movie changes Gear and steps up the pace it becomes a horror film complete with vampires. And a Standoff worthy of Howard Hawks. I wonder what Hawks would've done with this script and I tell myself he would've done it the same way. The Action is hot the Dialogue sharp and witty and the characterizations of the main characters is on target. This is by no means a academy award winning film but it has everything a serious film lover wants, Good direction A fast Pace A Good solid story And Superb acting from it's cast. Harvey Keital is solid and dependable as always as the minister Jacob Fuller fated to become a Fearless Vampire killer. And Quentin Tarentino is a good strong comedic actor turning a vile character like Ritchie into a almost likable person. George Clooney delivers the performance of a life time as Seth Gecko in a role that's got to be remembered as one of his best. If You don't believe me watch for yourself You are in for a special Treat.
