Kill Bill: Vol. 1
Avg 3.7
Upon my first viewing of this film, I was utterly blown away and dumbfounded. I was not expecting such an exciting and entertaining film as I have never seen anything quite like it before. Tarantino does is again with another amusing and spectacularly done film, and continues to prove himself as an original and daring director. Rich with lengthy and witty dialogue, each word that the characters speak causes you to think about it on another level. Kill Bill centers around The Bride as we join her on her journey for seeking revenge on those who have done her wrong; you find yourself being vengeful along with her. The film is isn't exactly family-friendly due to its quite violent and graphic nature, but it is done in an almost cheesy and comedic way. The violence and action scenes are done in such an over-the-top fashion that it holds no real sense of realism which, to me, makes the film all that much better. What really completes the movie is Tarantino's ability to make mediocre actors seem like good ones with a smart, hilarious dialogue and a good storyline. Whether you like Tarantino's distinct style of directing or not, I recommend this film regardless.
