Ok, that was definitely the best movie of the year. Truly a magnificent work. Just one warning: this movie has blood. LOTS AND LOTS OF BLOOD. FOUNTAINS OF BLOOD. If you don't like fake blood, don't see this movie.
Now, on to the review. As you all know, Uma Thurman's character, (whose real name we don't know because QT bleeps it over) was attacked on her wedding day in the chapel. They kill her fiance (husband?), and as we assume, her daughter (at the end of the movie, Bill says that she's alive). Four years later, the Bride (Uma Thurman) wakes up, kills the guy (medical assistant?) who's been pimping her comatose body for all those years ("My name is Buck and I'm here to f*ck"-yes, that's a line from the movie). Then, she takes his truck(the "Pussy Wagon") and goes off. But before that, as she is lying on the back seat of his truck, trying to regain control of her legs, we see the lfe story of O-Ren Ishii (Lucy Liu), told in anime (anime lovers, rejoice!) While I'm no expert on anime, I liked it.
Then, of course, she kills two of the atrackers (Lucy Liu and Vivica A. Fox), in a dazzling array of martial arts. And, of course, since this is Tarrantino, the second movie takes place earlier than the first.
While I'm going to spend most of the time on the first murder (the one you see in the trailer), the second one was awesome. Basically, she breaks into Vernita Green's (Vivica A Fox) house, and they trash the living room fighting. Then, however, her four year old daughter comes home, and they delay the fight, since the Bride doesn't want to kill her enemy in front of her daughter. They go into the kitchen, and as she i preparing cereal for her daughter, Green tries to shoot the Bride, and Thurman kills her. Then, however, we see her daughter standing in the doorway, seeing the whole thing. As she leaves, the bride says: "When you grow up, if you still feel bad about this thing, then I'll be waiting" :shock:
Ok, the second murder is what is what most of the movie is about. It's hard to describe, you have to see it, but basically, it involves fights between the Bride vs 17 yr old Japanese schoolgirl, the Bride vs. the crazy 88 (that's the scene you see in the trailer), by the end of which, the floor of the nightclub is covered in bodies, and of course the Bride vs. O-Ren Ishii. Great stuff.
Now, there is also a scene where this Okinawan guy makes her a sword. While I know that the actor who plays this guy is some kind of martial arts movie legend, I don't know anything about it.
Anyways, this was a great movie, and I truly think this is the est movie of the year. ***** (that's out of 5, in case you don't know).
