Uma Tarantino?

Rating: 7/10 (8 January 2005)

Kill Bill 1 was a pretty good hack 'n slash action movie. (The storytelling is great, but the fight scenes take up too much of the film). Volume 2 is more "sophisticated". The storytelling is as good as in volume 1, but here the focus is more on the story than on kicking butt. This is all good. Tarantino again shows that he's got more creative braincells than half of all the other Hollywood-directors together. Of course he's also very fu..ed up. I bet he would give Charles Manson a run for his money if he wouldn't focus all his violent energy on film making. Let's hope he continues to do so. One wish though. If he could just give therapy one (more?) chance we could hope for some extremely interesting movies in the future. Not to get rid of the creative twist, but to see other areas in life that are interesting enough to make movies about. Not everything in life circles around crime, drugs and violence. Or does it? When on the topic obsession. Quentin, when will finally you ask Uma to "become your bitch"?
