Somebody merge Kill Bill 1 & 2 into one and re-edit the order of scenes!

Rating: 6/10 (18 December 2015)

The HUGE HUGE HUGE weakness of this film is the fact that it is so slow. If you have just watched Kill Bill Part 1 and expect blood and guts galore and lots of scenes showing Beatrix kick ass and sever heads and limbs then you'll be very disappointed. You need patience and to be in the right frame of mind to get the most from this movie. This film is definitely more like a western rather than a kung fu movie (besides the scenes with Pai Mei).
If you do have patience though you'll be rewarded. Many things that weren't explained in the first half are explained. It ties things up. People may often pigeonhole Tarantino as an action director, but here he really shines in the intriguing dialogue that he has the actors deliver.
The final encounter with Bill disappointed me and left me craving for more. It felt like something was missing and there were a lot of scenes cut from Beatrix's encounter with Bill. I feel this scene should have had a more epic fight scene, though the verbal exchanges were pretty intense. Bill shouldn't have been so easy to kill dammit! Overall this is definitely not a bad film, but it's incredibly imbalanced. Some scenes from this film should have been in the first half and some action scenes from the first half should have been in the second. I don't like the whole action first (part 1) and dialogue later (part 2)that Tarantino took.
I definitely agree that someone should merge Kill Bill 1 & 2 into one and re-edit the order of the scenes.
