Spaghetti Eastern

Rating: Null/10 (3 May 2004)

Quentin Tarantio has crafted here a marvelously blended satirical swipe at the combined eastern/western action movie.
And it is pure, pure genius, in its every detail.
This was not made to be watched once. I know that I will certainly see it several more times.
However, if you're looking for a description before seeing it, well, it's like a 'Charlie's Angles' gone bad, plus 'Mission Impossible' plus thus wonderfully ridiculous Kung-Fu type action films, (subtitled) decorated with an 'anime', and more fake blood than the original 'Blade'.
And the music. The music is this absurdly beautiful blends of Morricone ( the Eastwood/Leone trilogy) and eastern instrumentals. Wonderful.
Uma Thurman is just, well, just so Uma. Lucy Liu, number one on Mamba's 'hit parade', plays a perfect Tarantino 'heavy'.
In fact, the construct, the structure, the Vonnegut like out of sequence event line that will tease the curiosity out of you, is his best yet.
All in all, this is the best Tarantino to date and I've just got to see "vol 2".
