Its good but not brilliant

Rating: Null/10 (27 November 2003)

Yes its a good movie. It is worth watching. Tarantino provides an entertaining kung fu flick. It is particularly fun to try and pick out all the nods to previous movies. But, it is certainly not the best of any genre.
Neither is it really that violent. Yes there is more blood spraying and limb dismemberment than say Love Actually, but its certainly not a gore movie. So much so I was actually disappointed.
The Japanese version also is more violent, having the final restaurant scene in color instead of black and white.
But in the quagmire of hollywood humdrum it certainly stands out.
6/10
