A poor second half to a great first.

Rating: 5/10 (25 April 2004)

Once you have seen Kill Bill vol.1, you are thrilled to see the second part of the movie. But the problem with the second half is that there is too much explaining to do, to make good for the first. Even when the first didn't really need any explanation. Still, Quentin had to fill in to make this second half into a feature, so here we go with pointless scenes about a deadbeat Budd who has some issues with his boss. A Spanish pimp and a training sequence to explain the miraculous escape of the Bride from the coffin.
While the first part was exciting, the second part is disappointing, not to say a bit boring. They should have made 1 movie instead of two, and the result would be as good as Quentin's amazing Pulp Fiction. But financial consideration made it into two unbalanced pieces.
