Good, but mixed bag

Rating: 9/10 (7 April 2007)

Grindhouse in parts is entertaining. The Planet Terror sequence really reminded me of the old Return of the Living Dead movies and had plenty of action and gore and though not scary, it obviously wasn't meant to be. Death Proof was the much better half of the movie in my opinion. Better everything really, including one of the best car chases I have seen in years. Really. It is almost 20 minutes long it seemed but may have been longer. It was incredible. My one problem come from the double feature nature of the movie(s). After Planet Terror you feel like you should leave., after all you just watched a movie. Having the rising action of one movie minutes after the climax of another just didn't feel right. Still this movie is easily recommendable, go watch it. Just don't take it to seriously and you'll have fun.
