The Movie that changed my life

Rating: 10/10 (8 October 2008)

Quentin Tarntino's kung-fu/samurai epic is, in my opinion, his magnum opus. The greatest thing about it, though, is how beautifully everything comes together, and how astounding it all looks, whether it be the silent snowy garden at the House of Blue Leaves or the red and yellow-leathered back seat of Buck's truck. The first time I saw it, I was just so captivated by everything it held that it was truly the first movie I saw that really made me want to get into film production. I know how messed up it sounds to be influenced by such a stylized, violent flick, but I couldn't imagine it without the ever-flowing amount of blood. To me, it's like Tarntino's painting a picture with the bloodshed, and it is so beautiful to look at.
