Pretentious

Rating: Null/10 (17 May 2004)

Before I write this comment on Kill Bill 2, I must point out that I have always been a QT-fan and I looked forward to this film for many months. I wanted it to be good. I really did. For the first 20 minutes I figured to myself "yeah, it's pretty good". But sometimes after she escapes from the coffin and fights the other girl, I just completely lost interest. I never thought that could happen, cause KB 1 had me sitting on the edge of my seat, and I agree with whoever said that as long as QT signs his name on something everyone will praise it. But until now that has been true. Everything he has done has been great, I even liked his acting in PF and FR. I spent all of 10th grade discussing and watching pulp fictions with some friends. He made me love movies, and when he made this, it just felt like the old all of a sudden got old. The dialogue was disgustingly pretentious, the character Bill was a weak actor and I guess he is unknown because of just that. Uma did NOT prefrom well in this movie. She could give courses in overacting. I mean, the same as with QT, she has made nothing but great movies, but even in the trailer when she is driving the car, her acting is very sub-par. Facts: I looked at my watch after 20 minutes. I thought it was a joke. Like QT made a practical joke and in the end said: "Here is the REAL movie" The use of blue color in the movie did NOT work at all. I started blinking a lot at the end, not cause when she killed Bill it was sad or her daughter made me sad, just cause I had trouble staying awake. Kill Bill 1 is one of the best movies I've seen. Kill Bill 2 is one of the worst. It's so weird when I talk to people who liked it (and there are a lot of them). I still feel like I watched another movie than them. I haven't written one of these for many years, that's how much I did not like it.
