Pertinacious junk - the most expensive B movie ever made.

Rating: 4/10 (11 February 2006)

A former key member of a comic book " assassination squad" (Uma Thurnan) is almost killed on her wedding day and continues (from Part 1) her quest to get her own back on the her would-be killers.
(Will she succeed? Oh, the tension, the tension.)
Since Pulp Fiction every movie that Quentin Tarantino has made is worse than the last. This, at least, keeps up his record. Maybe we will realise that he is, really, a one/two trick pony - although that is not to say that some people won't be entertained by the limited tricks until the day they die.
Most adults have to go to work so they don't have all day to read comic books, watch bad movies and read third rate pulp fiction (small case). Q (as he is sometimes billed) only rarely rises from his chair to work -- although I am sure he classes a 1,000 interviews (in which he often refers to the praise of others!) as work -- so he has plenty of time to do the above. The result is the kind of film we see here. Tired clichés and po faced speeches that we are supposed to take seriously.
(Or are tired clichés and "bad" reborn as irony?)
Those that got-off on the senseless violence of Part 1 will be surprised by the restraint of Part 2. While it retains the back of the cigarette packet plot it does have moments of humour and irony -- although the script is not half as clever as it thinks it is.
They say that the Beatles audience was more interesting that the group -- fans of this film are more interesting than the film. Everyone can see something different in the mist. Feel free to like and dislike -- but this has a silly IMDb score...
