Please let me be cool!

Rating: 1/10 (14 September 2008)

Tarantino was the kid at school nobody liked and he desperately wanted to be cool. His movies reek of this desperation.
Some parts are cool and some parts are very contrived, this movie was mainly contrived. I thought the visual effects were decent but they lacked credibility. Its hard to believe a skinny Uma Thurman is going to chop up all those people with one sword. Or that she can defy the laws of physics and escape being buried alive.
The acting was nonchalant, nobody seemed to care that much - but I understood that that was the point. But then I didn't really like anybody, they were all so two dimensional who cared if they died? Nice try Tarantino - haven't seen a movie out of you for a while. Hope your sabbatical is indefinite.
