Flashy, provocative and action packed.

Rating: 7/10 (22 December 2015)

This marks the beginning of Tarantino's shift from crime to revenge. Kill Bill is a lot of things: funny, corny, emotional, action-packed, colorful, avant-garde. It's very indulgent and provocative from the gory action scenes to even dedicating a 15 minute portion of it as an animated comic-book backstory for one of the characters. It definitely takes on provocative subjects.
Uma Thurman gives an amazing performance, beautiful and tough as steel. It's not as high IQ as Tarantino's previous films. But when you have an assassin frantically taking on 20 ninjas in a Chinese restaurant with the 5678's singing the Woo Hoo song, you're having too much fun to care how silly the story is.
