Quentin Tarrantino is a pretentious jack ass. I�ve disliked every movie he�s ever been affiliated with.

Except Kill Bill

Ok This wasn�t the greatest movie ever and some of the little artsy-fartsy details bothered me but overall, I liked it.

WHAT?!

QUENTIN TARRANTINO MADE A MOVIE THAT I LIKED??!!

The brain at the end looked fake (btw and that�s kind of a lame way for her to die anyway) , some of the music was annoying (some was great admittedly), I�ve seen better fight scenes, the timeline incontinuity served no purpose except as a gimmick (why not just write that she fought Green first and then Ishii?), many of the lines were stilted by nerdy dialogue, there was the Quentin T trademark juvenile rape scene (I�m Buck and I�m here to fuck? Oh really�) � oh and speaking of which, QT can manage to strip the word �fuck� of all impact ie �the price for bring that up is I will collect your fucking head� how can that threat sound so weak coming from a crime boss who beheaded a dude right in that very room? Uma Thurman was not hot (I wouldn�t kick her out of bed but that hardly qualifies her as being hot)

Now, maybe it was the beer I was drinking, but it was still pretty good.
