Quotes:
[first lines]
Bill: Do you find me sadistic? You know, I bet I could fry an egg on your head right now, if I wanted to. You know, Kiddo, I'd like to believe that you're aware enough even now to know that there's nothing sadistic in my actions. Well, maybe towards those other... jokers, but not you. No Kiddo, at this moment, this is me at my most...
[cocks pistol]
Bill: masochistic.
The Bride: Bill... it's your baby...
[BLAM!]

Kill Quentin, 23 October 2003

Author: thegoat666 from Vienna

Beeing a devoted tarantino fan since reservoir dogs i had very high expectations on his new movie as many people, but, folks, lets be honest, Kill Bill didn't meet our expectations, did it? Very plain, full of cliches (yeah, the Jakuza-Boss is pedophile, snore) and completely senseless splatter and gore (am i the only one who does not see any amusement in watching 88 people getting hacked up, that is NOT funny, whats the point of this scene? Guess it had to be done to camouflage the absence of beeing able to write a good script) in the end, but without the usual great dialogs full of irony and witz, instead QT is torturing the audience with japanese monologs full of dullness and a not at all convincing uma thurman with the most horrible plain jane haircut one has ever seen. I guess Kill Bill was meant as a tribute to old fashioned hongkong movies but despite the gallons of ridiculous spilled blood it arrived as a farce without charme.
