Brutal and Stylish- A nice return to the director's chair for Tarantino

Rating: 8/10 (24 July 2005)

I borrowed Kill Bill Vol. 1 from a friend because I actually wanted to see how good the movie really was. Before I saw it I really had no interest in the movie because I'm really not a big fan of samurai movies, but since it was directed by Quentin Tarantino who directed and wrote one of my two favorite movies, (Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs,) I still had hopes for it. Good movie, indeed and Uma Thurman played a kick ass role. The movie was extremely brutal and blood lashed out everywhere from beginning to end, but it's a Tarantino movie, what do you expect? I wasn't really bothered by that point, despite it was a little unrealistic but I guess that's how it was suppose to be made. Overall, Tarantino's, Kill Bill Vol. 1 is very stylish nevertheless and it also to add, it had great music. Not as great as everyone says it was, but it was still a good movie. I recommend it.
Hedeen's Outlook: 7.5/10 *** B-
