Terminal bodycount

Rating: 8/10 (1 September 2018)

Exceedingly difficult flick to review. Very difficult to watch twice, knowing the plot, which is anyway rather obvious in a way. I've been reading the one-star reviews, but I don't agree with them. All drama is influenced by somebody else's earlier work. This is very well-written, witty and inventive. Could be acted on a stage. It reminded me of Oscar Wilde. It is also extremely well-acted by all concerned. The Tarantino trademark is the depiction of criminals as just like everybody else, with the same sort of conversation and preoccupations, outside the lawlessness and obscenity. What do they call hamburgers in France ? Interesting point. I wouldn't want to be called Mr Pink. I have to admit that the violence is off-putting, after it's been experienced once. Glad to have seen this film, but can't really positively recommend it, although I give it a fairly high mark. Don't understand the title. Reservoir ?
