good back-story, and good acting
Excellent adaptation.
This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
View MoreThis is an excellent film. Most continuations lose the spirit, however not this one.
View MoreI personally really enjoyed Kill Bill: Vol. 1. It was full of well written dialogue, featured good performances, and was very entertaining. All of the same things are true for this sequel, although it's not quite as good as the first movie. The cast is a lot of the same, Thurman, Carradine, Hannah, and Madsen are all back and all turn in great performances. Thurman's character is now focusing on the three remaining people that are left on her quest for revenge. I want to focus on these three individuals separately. First, is Michael Madsen. He plays his character very well, he is not very fanatic, he's pretty laid back and chill most of the time, and in a way that makes his character more menacing, because of the ease that comes with his actions. He was a great choice for his role. But ya know who was the absolute perfect choice for their role? Daryl Hannah. Hannah plays Elle, the one eyed ruthless assassin. I adored her performance, she really gave it her all. I was transfixed by her acting ability here, especially since it's a pretty unusual role for her. And of course Thurman was just amazing in the lead, just as she was in Vol. 1. I do suggest this sequel, but only if this is your kind of movie and only if you liked the first film. Well written dialogue, fine performances, and a lot of great action. 8/10.
View MoreThere's a quote by the character Budd in this Quentin Tarantino movie after our now Bouncer is asked to compare his Hatori Honzo sword with others. It is at this time that he hesitates and comments on appropriate and inappropriate comparisons. I would venture that the same goes true for QT movies. As they are genre compilations with their own set of rules of the film realm, that we have come to love and trust, they really stand in their own place. We picked up here where we left off with The Brides' Viper Assassin Gang Assassination List 40% complete, with another 88 or so Samarai style deaths absolved along the way in the name of avenging the loss of her baby four years earlier. If we were expecting more of the same we would have been selling QT short. Enter The Western!It's a dirty, dusty old trail of revenge and nothing is going stop her, except herself... see beginning and ending off the movie for further details. This is countered by overacting, which is purposefully delicious and appropriate. To compare KBII to KB I is miss the point of a continued move. This really isn't a "II" , in the movie sense of franchised adventure. Volume 2 is simply the second half of a movie that was split in two for purposes of audience attention span, studio double dipping into your pockets and, I'm guessing, a bit off QT tom foolery.... and isn't that what we came for?
View MoreKill Bill Vol. 2 is the sequel one year later than the original processor Kill Bill. Being released as two separate parts within a year of each other, Quentin Tarantino understood what he was getting at. Volume 2 in this franchise lays out more of a plot, more in depth and remains more focus than the original. There is more suspense and thrills and it is overall a more entertaining and intriguing watch. Mainly thanks of David Carradine's portrayal as Bill, as he has more screen time and answers are answered more regarding his relationship with The Bride (however her name was revealed).Though what is less than stellar and quite disappointing is the final showdown between the Bride and Bill. We understood the main purpose of the film is the revenge of the Bride against Bill and the build up was all for a chaotic scene between the two, but what is left happening doesn't live up to the hype, as nothing mesmerizing occurs between the two. Though leading up to the final end scenes, occurs key and important scenes involving both the Bride and Bill, and introducing their four year old daughter. This was well done. The bride was also less aggressive and more persistent in Vol. 2 which made her character more likable as we got a better understanding at her backstory. Overall, Vol. 2 had its moments and an improvement over Vol. 1.
