Beautiful

Rating: 9/10 (11 October 2003)

Beautiful, extremely stylish and hugely funny. I haven't really been a fan of Tarantino (I fell asleep during Pulp Fiction, but rather liked Jackie Brown and I haven't seen Reservoir Dogs) but I have always admired his vision, even though that hasn't touched me, before now that is. Kill Bill may not be a mainstream Hollywood drama/action flick but it is almost perfect as a work of art, as a film. It's hugely enjoyable to see Tarantino play with different parts of pop culture, art, style etc., because Kill Bill: Vol. 1 really works in bringing all those different parts together to a unique and strong experience. This film works.
Wonderfully crafted piece of art, very enjoyable. I wanna see it again.
