Different from Vol 1., but still good.

Rating: 9/10 (26 May 2004)

I keep hearing everyone bitch about how Vol. 2 was "boring and didn't have
enough action." It definitely does not have the amount of action as Vol. 1; but what it lacks it action, it makes up for in character development and dramatic tension. Watching the Pai Mei sequence, which I particularly enjoyed, showsthat Tarantino has watched a lot of the old HK flicks (the shooting style and the use of snap-zooms were perfectly mimicked). It would also seem that David
Carradine is back on the "cool list," as Tarantino seems to do with many actor's (especially one's with the faltering careers). A very satisfying second half to the movie. 9/10
