not a big Tarantino fan...

Rating: 10/10 (21 December 2019)

...having said that, I loved Kill Bill (first one). Absolutely loved this, too. Not at ALL what I expected. I don't want to say too much and ruin it. I'm 59 and appreciated the nostalgia throughout. But the palpable tension from the back story that built in my gut surprised me. I almost turned it off knowing what was coming. Outstanding movie. Best I've seen in years. The music, as in other Tarantino (and Coen Bros.) flicks is surprising, apt, perfect (the JRB Theme made me laugh out loud). Lastly, as a male barely three years older than Brad Pitt, when he climbed up on that roof and took his shirt off I almost swooned. It would be easy to hate him if he wasn't so likeable.
