Best picture of the year!

Rating: 10/10 (6 December 2003)

All you sad people, who think that Kill Bill is overrated, unworthy or whatever, just don't appreciate a good film when you see it. first of all, Tarantino is a genius, and the fact that he's never won an Oscar only proves how unique this filmmaker really is. Just doing what he wants, putting his heart into it and not appealing to the mainstream fans. the guy is basically having a good time, while creating an exhilarating, avant-garde, non-apologetic, explosion of a movie.
The problem with people who dislike this picture is that they think of Tarantino as the film school graduate, deeply philosophical type, when in fact the man did his homework at a video store, proving that you don't have to be Hollywood's favorite pet in order to make good movies. you just make them... and try to have some FUN while going at it. some people will like it, others won't. but that's the great thing about good movies - they make you feel (for better or for worse). Indifference is the worst form of criticism. So i ask, what's so wrong about a film that pays homage to those action-packed B-type kung fu movies that we all grew up on? (well, at least some of us). Its fun, its crazy, the cinematography is spectacular, the dialogues are, as always, sharp and very self-aware in a "Tarantino" sort of way, the Soundtrack is superb (another Tarantino trademark), the anima sequence was outstanding and a brilliant touch. All in all I had great FUN watching this movie (maybe that's why i went to see it 3 times),and i laughed my ass off. Sometimes people forget that films can be enjoyed simply because they're FUN to watch, even if sometimes they don't contemplate on deeply intellectual matters (which is not entirely true about QT's films). So if people can't just have pure FUN from watching a movie, then why bother?
