OK first of all let it be known that i loved Kill Bill 1 because it didn't have any pretensions about what it was, a cool, witty samurai movie which draws upon the best of genre films only does better which leaves the viewers with a feast of gore and chick fights which stand up against 'crouching tiger'. Unfortunately the 2nd volume does not rely on action and cool laconic Dialogue which is OK i grant you. Clearly Tarantino wanted to spend the entire film with characters exchanging pointless below average lines (not Tarantino quality of 'Resevoir dogs' and 'Pulp Fiction) because he had faith in the cinematic appeal of Bill which im sorry wasn't there. Their is one semi decent action scene in the entire film between daryhl Hannah and Uma Thurman's the bride and the rest is dependent on the on character relationships which are .. well ..LAME! I don't mind a slow paced film but if it lacks the dialogue and emotion that makes them enjoyable they are the worst type of film to have to sit through. Sorry to disappoint my friends - Kill Bill 1's an 8/10 possible DVD purchase, Kill Bill 2's a 5/10 at the most and i suggest you suppress your curiosity until it comes out on TV or something.
