Amazing and original ... classic Tarantino

Rating: 10/10 (14 April 2004)

** SPOILERS HEREIN**
"Kill Bill" was simply breathtaking! Tarantino is a true genius both in his writing and his directing. I believe that "Kill Bill" is his best film to date both because it is two-parted and therefore is the most complex and lengthy, but also because it carries with it more substance and homage than any of his previous films.
Uma Thurman was awesome; she plays the femme fatale as a hero instead of a villain, which is refreshing. She embodies the rage and vengeance that the Bride feels for her former accomplices, and she does it looking hot at the same time! Tarantino once again brings his groundbreaking directing to the table. His unorthodox use of sequence, flashback, and camera angle provide for a visual treat that one can't find in many other directors. It seems that the order in which he presents this film is at random but yet not at all (e.g. the audience knows that the Bride kills Ishii, but the HOW seems almost more important than the WHAT). All in all, there are many flaws (as there are in any film) but it seems that a "flaw" for Tarantino would be something welcomed by any other director. In other words, perhaps Tarantino implants these "flaws" so that dumbass movie nerds will waste 10 minutes of their time posting something about it on a website. None the less, "Kill Bill" is an innovative masterpiece worthy of praise from all.
