Perhaps it's me

Perhaps has SPOILERS!!!!!
I don't know. Perhaps it's me and this movie is awesome, but honestly, I found it weak. I won't bash Tarantino because this is the first (I count both KB1 & 2 as a sole film) film I've seen of him and that would not be fair.
First of all, why in hell I find most of the performances thoroughly forced? I don't believe Uma at all. Carradine... his lines were well, but please don't even dare making another "fight" scene like that (come on, you were better even in "Future Force"!). On the other hand, both Michael Madsen and specially Daryl Hannah (thank you dear, you looked and performed much better than in "The Job") rob this film.
Straight into what the film is, the first volume was excessively violent, somewhat bizarre, and I called it (in my "The Job" comment) a "fun crap". this second one explores the inner side of The Bride, and all comes to an end in a long, dull, and boring way.
To sum up, it's the proof of what happens when an American director tries to make a martial arts film like the Asian ones. Any Jet Li or Bruce Lee film can run rings around it.
4/10
