Don't take your guns to town...

Rating: 10/10 (16 April 2004)

An highly entertaining piece of cinema. Borrowing from every great action movie of note in the past four decades this film delivers from front to back leaving just enough unsaid to truly give the characters enough mystery for some great mythology. Remember how you thought Bobba Fett was the coolest? That's because you didn't really know jack about him...
If volume one was about action, volume two is about suspense and muted emotion. Drawing the audience in with gritty exchanges and gruesome action the movie takes a different kind of turn when Bill and the Bride finally come face to face.
Great film with an interesting but dangerous nearing flat ending. The plot is running on the rim when it finally screeches to a halt with a satisfying spin out. An oddly delicate if uneven ending that recalls the final piano note from the Beatles "Day in the life" in that after a crescendo of mayhem your left with an open ended story and moral questions left unanswered.
This film will be even better if it is ever cut together and viewed as one entire piece. I felt that cutting this movie in half was a bad (and greedy) Harvey Wienstein idea and really creates something lopsided. However despite the slashing, it is an epic without a doubt and will stand up to the sands of time. It could take it's place in the pantheon of great even near perfect action films. 9.5/10
