May contain spoilers - (or maybe it was just spoiled by being in 2 parts)


I loved the first film so was eagerly awaiting this volume but i am hugely disapointed. It was an average film that entertained for an hour or so but nothing more. I cant believe this is from the same director as the masterpiece that is Pulp Fiction.

The whole film is basicialy about 5 scenes played back to back. It starts with a conversation with the bride(whose name is finaly revealed) talking to bill for about 20mins, then a scene with bill talking to budd for about 20 mins, then somebody else talking to somebody else for half an hour or so etc. etc. etc. and at the end of each 20 - 30 minute chat the apropriate person being killed. Its pretty boring with little action compared to the firsts Crazy 88 battle. In fact there is hardly any action at all.

The only saving grace to the dire conversation is Bills analogy of Superman comics.

All in all this film disapoints compared to the first.

On the film poster in the newspaper, Paul Ross called it "superb".

Make of that what you will...

I was very disappointed aswell.

however the were some good parts, the 'eye' part, the 'snake' part and that asian master guy was excellent.

People who've seen it will kno what I mean. Also, the ending bit was very anti climax.

The ending was absolute tosh. I was expecting a huge battle with Bill but instead she kills him while sitting on a garden chair. And it was abvious that she was going to use the 5 point presire palm manouver thingy

Her name is ***SPOILER*** Beatrix Kiddo and if i remember corectly he calls her kiddo in the first film. I might be wrong about this but if he does then thats the "clue" to her name

I was quite disappointed

Still alright, not a patch on first which wasn't a patch on Pulp Fiction.

Oioi! SPOILER! Some people don't wanna know that yet! ;)

The other clue in the first movie is just before the Crazy 88 arive and O-ren Ishii or whatever her name is (Lucy Lui) says, Silly rabbit, then The Bride cuts in and says, Trix are for kids. Way cool.. :)
