This is a good film, it relies to much on the first film, and did not have nearly enough action, and that is the thing that would have made this film great

Rating: 6/10 (17 October 2012)

This film was good, but in my own eye it was not as good as the first film in the Kill Bill series. This fundamentally rested on the ending of the film being an anti climax as well as the fact that this film focused to heavily form answering questions from the first film, and so did not have as much action or storyline, instead it consisted mainly on flash backs. The flash backs were useful as to figuring out things about the 'bride' character, as well as showing more links between the assassin group.
Unlike the first film, most of the deaths in this film were disappointments as compared to the last film, they all were quick and there wasn't any of the intense fighting sequences that made most of the first film. Although music was integrated well into this film, I again feel that it was better in the first film, and that this film was more of a disappointment. The lack of more cartoon imagery used was again something that made this film look worse in comparison to the first film.
I only wish that more action had been put into this film, and more interesting shots to bring the film to life, especially in the flashbacks which were fairly frequent. My main problem with this film was the second half, as practically all action had ceased by then, and we just got pure mother issue with her daughter, this part was far to accentuated and although I enjoyed Bill as a character, I would have much preferred to see more of his so called amazing fighting skills.
Therefore all though this is a good film, it relies to much on the first film, and did not have nearly enough action, and that is the thing that would have made this film great.
