Isa B Uma Thurman gives a performance for the ages in Kill Bill. Quentin Tarantino is a master filmmaker. He may very well be the greatest student of the game in the history of cinema. He is so well studied. He's like a great hip hop producer in that, he samples a little from one genre and then samples more from another and the finished piece is a work of art. He is a genius writer and is quite the visual storyteller. Kill Bill is one of the finer examples of the man's brilliance. This film is separated into two volumes, so this part of the review is for Volume 1. I highly recommend both volumes because you can't see the film without seeing them both. 94/100 for Volume 1 98/100 for Volume 2 96/100 for the entire film Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/19/24 Full Review Nick R A great revenge story done in Tarantino's signature, violent style. It's filled with fun action and makes an absolute bada** out of Uma Thurman. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/19/24 Full Review Ilya M Tarantino's signature nonlinear storytelling and sharp dialogue create a captivating narrative that keeps audiences on edge. The film is marked by its striking visuals, from vibrant color palettes to dynamic cinematography, particularly in the iconic final sequence, where martial arts choreography reaches exhilarating heights. Thurman delivers a powerful performance, embodying both vulnerability and fierce determination, while Lucy Liu's portrayal of O-Ren Ishii adds depth to the villainous ensemble. However, the film's excessive violence can be polarizing; it often straddles the line between homage and gratuitousness. While some may appreciate the stylized brutality, others might find it overwhelming. Despite this, Volume 1 ultimately passes the testament of time, blending genres and pushing boundaries. It's a bold exploration of themes like betrayal and vengeance, solidifying its place as a cult classic in modern cinema and as my personal favorite. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/07/24 Full Review Marlon W Very good, great film about revenge, Tarantino's direction is impeccable, sometimes I find some things a little exaggerated, but it's a great film Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Alvaro B Tarantino's unique style and cinematography is amazing as always. The man knows exactly what he wants to show and how he wants to do it, and clearly made stereotypes its strongest point, reinventing itself. The story, despite not being the most complex, is also its strong point because it is digestible, satisfying and entertaining. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/21/24 Full Review Audience Member A well told story. Uma Thurman’s physicality makes the movie.
