A Great Tale of Revenge

Rating: 8/10 (14 June 2004)

Kill Bill Vol.1 is Quentin Tarantino's best work since Pulp Fiction and Uma Thurman's best work ever. It's a classic revenge tale, in which Thurman's character seeks revenge on the crew of assassins who tried to kill her. Thurman's character simply known as the Bride was a former member of the crew who attempted to kill her. After the Bride is attacked she goes into a comma for a few years, she wakes up and only has only one thing on her mindÂ…REVENGE!!! Kill Bill is the perfect combination of action, comedy and Japanese anime. Uma Thurman is excellent as the bride. Lucy Liu is great as the half Chinese half American, O- Ren Ishii. Quentin Tarantino does it again. The entire film was good from beginning to end. I can't wait for volume 2 to come out later on this year. Vivica A. Fox is awesome and lethal as Vernita Green. However, David Carradine fans will be disappointed. He is only in a couple scenes throughout the entire film. Hopefully we will see more of him and Michael Madsen in Kill Bill Volume: 2. Overall I gave Kill Bill Vol. 1 an 8 out of 10. The action scenes were spectacular and I loved the Japanese-anime sequences in the film. If people liked this movie I would recommend seeing Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction.
