Nice face and lots of blood

Rating: 1/10 (15 April 2004)

Tarantino has shown he has imagination and creativity, however, he missed the point this time. Once again we have a background of a good action film, several really nice ideas, but...
The main problem of this film is that the scenes are very distantly related to each other. Only revenge and bloodlust can connect the chaos into something more congruous.
For example, do we need anime movies? in a film? do they add anything to he meaning and pleasure to watch? You can, of course, paint them all in blood, but isn't it rather tasteless to make the whole film just a one bloody mess?
Sorry, Tarantino, but Uma vs. 88 guys was good enough.. to be annoying. Just like the vampires in "From Dusk till Dawn", there are things in Kill Bill that are not connected to anything shown before and do not add anything what is seen after. What the scenes give is only... blood, and the possibility for Uma to show what she had learned in the kung-fu school.
I think it is a total crap, unless seeing liters and liter of blood gives you any kind of satisfaction. Uma Thurman keeps the film afloat, however, if you go to see Kill Bill, expect your popcorn to be more valuable than what you see on the screen.
Rating 1/4.
