I haven't seen this great a movie in years.

Rating: 10/10 (29 April 2004)

I was quite astonished at the work put into this film. I hadn't seen Volume 1 in theaters. I purchased the movie upon it's release, just in time for Volume 2. I knew little about the film's details, and only a little more about it's plot. I must say I was thrilled with Volume 1, and far more thrilled with Volume 2. Tarantino's work is unique to say the least. He has a distinction all his own, and it is the dialogue within his films I find most exhilarating. The character of Bill is, well, a literary piece of perfection. Normally, long scenes of dialogue are boring and uninteresting. However, when "Bill" tells his tales and spills his stories, it is hard to not be involved. Volume 2 is a bit opposite of Volume 1. Gore, guts, and gross-out stuff prevailed, while explanation, tied-up loose ends, and revelation ruled Volume 2. Each piece of this story is excellent alone, but when you travel back to reality and remember that it's a two part film, well, then you can learn to appreciate such unity, organization, and perfection in film-"creating".
