My partner and I usually agree on the films we've seen. Not on this one.
She loved it. Raved about every aspect of it. Called it "brilliant" (not a word she uses lightly). Said it might be the best film she's seen this year.
Oddly, she's not much of a QT fan. I am, and seeing "Kill Bill" was my idea.
I was ok with it, though not really LOVING it, up until the battle royal in the Japanese restaurant/night club. Then I almost dozed off; if I'd been there alone, I'd have got up and left. Boring Saturday-morning-cartoon kiddie stuff.
Yeah, the cinematography was good, and the music was arresting. But there was no "there" there, and I left the theatre feeling cheated.
