2 very powerful moments

Rating: 8/10 (14 December 2003)

Well, though having Tarantino atop the credits is something that helps, this movie has many details that make it much more than "a good popcorn movie".
Let me just mention a couple. 2 very powerful ones.
First, the japanese animation. Please, go again to the theater, wait for that scene, and then feel it: people there will be more stressed and involved, than in almost any other movie you can recall. (And, by the way, the simple way the director -not his name, him- put that scene into the story, deserves a point).
Second: All the introductory sequence to the last scene --i.e. the way everybody walks in (was it a... restaurant?), Sofie's walk to the restrooms, people dancing... all that, with the 3-girls-band performance as a background, with that very music...--. Boy, that is a really powerful scene!
The film of the century? Certainly not. But, believe me, it is a veeery good (popcorn) movie.
I join the group: I want to see the 2nd part!!
