Rodriguez-Tarantino make a great team

Rating: 8/10 (6 October 2013)

Director Robert Rodriguez and writer Quentin Tarantino make a great team. This marries the splatter fun of Rodriaguez with the delicious dialog from Tarantino.
Seth (George Clooney) and Richard (Quentin Tarantino) are bank robbers. Richard is a little insane and breaks Seth out of court. They take the Fuller family (Harvey Keitel, Juliette Lewis, Ernest Liu) hostage. Once in Mexico, they stop at the wild bar Titty Twister to wait for Carlos expected before dawn. Just when things couldn't get any crazier, Salma Hayek starts dancing.
This is a well made simple gore fest. It doesn't let up until they reach sunlight. It's a film where Rodriguez has thrown everything into it. Tarantino actually works well as manic maniac. It's kind of his thing. Clooney brings his superiority to his character. He does need to be more menacing. That's probably the only minor complaint I have. Clooney seems out of place at times.
