Pulp Hack and Slash

Rating: Null/10 (21 October 2003)

What do you get when you add one part japanese anime, one part kung fu revenge movie, then mix together with the genius that is Tarantino? You get Kill Bill Volume One. Some say this movie isn't for everyone. Yet, it is. Who wouldn't want to see a movie about revenge? Trust me folks, the best part of this movie is that you will agree with the character's motives. You want,"The Bride," to have her revenge. You want every last one of those shameful pricks to pay for what they did. This movie is driven by it's audience's need to see justice.
Tarantino bravely tries to tell a story without even having a story. In this film, we have straps of a story. It's as if we all have amnesia along with Uma. The only thing we can remember throughout this film is that someone has to pay.
This film has several laugh out loud moments. While it never strays from it's overall tone. Kill Bill is a shot in the arm for a genre that needs more thoughtful pieces like this.
