Was it supposed to be funny?

Rating: 1/10 (20 September 2009)

Let me just say, I am a fan of Tarantino but this film is making me wonder if that will continue.
Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction had humour, style and shock. Jackie Brown had a great story and style. Kill Bill (The imported version - The UK cut DVD makes no sense) had style and a fun story. Death Proof was pointless. It had no redeeming features to balance the violence.
This is one of the worst movies I've seen at the cinema. I'm not even sure if it was even supposed to be funny. And I'm so disappointed. I was hoping Death Proof was going to be an exception. If I'd been at the cinema on my own I would have walked out.
I hated Starship Troopers (and would have walked out on that too) despite being a huge Heinlein fan. The humour in that was very similar to IB and totally missed me too.
