Well, it's pretty violent...but not much happens...

Rating: Null/10 (17 October 2004)

I don't think all that much of this, certainly the casting and acting are really good-Buscemi, Madsen, Tierney, Roth, etc-and it Does have that Tarentino attitude to spare-but that only gets you so far.
I can't really imagine why you would consider a movie where one character is slowly bleeding to death in the center of the screen for most of it, another has his ear cut off, another does a long drawn out torture scene, and the incessant 'fuck you's' and shootings left right up and down....to be a classic when it really is more of a low budget homage to nasty mob flix from Hong Kong, exploitation of exploitation if you will.
Sure, Keitel, Madsen and Buscemi really deliver. But you expect that. I also thought that they did NOTHING in this movie but stand around the warehouse a lot, flash their guns around and spew out 'fuck you' every 4.2 seconds. That got old fast.
Tarentino is a grating non-actor who should stay outta his own movies, Tim Roth was miscast, and the dying slowly via gut-shot stuff--that was MSTK3 material. 'Is he dead yet--' C'mon....
I give it **1/2 outta **** for the acting and effort, but if ya think about it, there's really no there, There.
