Thumbs down Kill Bill Vol.2

Here's my thoughts.
v2 would have been better stuck on the ass-end of v1...don't get me wrong, I didn't hate v2, I just didn't much like it.
I know it wasn't meant to be the same "kind of" movie...but I just can't figure out what "kind of" this one was going for. I found it boring to be absolutely honest, lengthy intricate fight scenes replaced with too much convo, and not enough of an asskick "feel".
The fights were O.K, but seriously, all I heard about this film was how much "the shit" the fight between Uma and Daryl was gonna be...what the fuck? Yeah, it ends with an

**Spoilers in the unlikely event that anyone hasn't seen it yet**

























eye getting ripped out, but the whole scene didn't have shit on ANY of the fights from the first one.
Madsen going down like a naive bitch?
Bill being "over" within 30 seconds?
I know she's good, but for our benefit, Bill being a little more of a match would've been nice...
and FYI, Q.T...he didn't REALLY have to be playin' a flute, we all know who he is...:rolleyes:...or at this point "was".



Oh yeah, and, as claimed in certain publications, you DON'T get to see the "entire" wedding scene, that's absolute bullshit, (not that it's an actual wedding) you see the events that occur BEFORE it, and then barely more than some gunfire flashes, viewed from outside...

The film was ok, nice resolution...blahblahblah...but I can't say I'll ever be bothered watching it again, is this where a guy makes a film that sucks, but his fans pass it of as "stylishly done" instead of boring and shitty?
I have to admit though, that the story does allow for both further sequel and prequel possibilities...

Ya i didnt see the first because EVERYONE was saying it was the best movie ever, blah blah blah, i eventually saw it on video, wasnt bad, but it certianly didnt live up to the hype.

I wont be seeing the 2nd unless i happen upon someone watchin it at the time. And judging from your spoilers it looks like i wont be missing much....

Saw Volume 2 Ending a mile away!

WARNING SPOILER AHEAD! :

I didn't see Kill Bill V. 1 until I rented it on dvd. I thought it was ok, definitely didn't think it was all that.

I went and saw V2....it.....well...

SUCKED ASS!!.........................................





SPOILER BELOW!!


I saw the ending coming a mile away, as soon as 'Bill' started talking about the 'magic punch' I knew that was how he was going to die!

Talk about lame ass endings!

How the fuck should I know probably!
Why? Because it's a brilliant film, it's so funny, and the soundtrack kicks fucking ass!

Yes, I've seen all of Tarantinos work.
I know the majority of his films focus on dialogue.
I was strictly speaking in comparison to KB volume 1, which I loved, I'd prefer #2 to have been a little closer to that.

problem for me was that in kill bill vol. 1, a certain rythm was set. and then in vol. 2 ( which qt has said it's not a "part 2", merely the rest of the movie ) that whole rythm is broken. that kind of disappointed me a bit.

second thing that got to me is that one would expect the fights to get harder and more trying as the bride goes along ( kind of like in a video game whan you have to beat the boss of each stage... until you get to the final, most difficult one to beat the game ). but the exact contrary happened.

yes, there were arguments that justified this saying that vol.2 was actually " a love story " between bill and the bride, and thus the true battle lied within her heart, bla, bla, bla... but it still throws a person of balance and makes the film seem a bit uneven, imo.

but i did like it, just not as much as i probably could have.
