Kill Bill Vol. 2

One thing’s for sure, this’ll be the bloodiest film so far this year not starring Jesus. It’ll certainly be a lot more fun. Word is that the second half of Quentin Tarantino’s revenge thriller is a little heavier on spaghetti-Western homage than Vol. 1 was, but that’s not to say QT’s sheathed the Hong Kong-style swordplay. True, his glibness can be irritating, and the story here’s not exactly Shakespeare (well, maybe Titus Andronicus). Not to mention that delaying a theatrical release by two months often signals a ticking bomb. But we enjoyed the hell out of part one, and not even Go Go Yubari armed with that razorball thing will keep us from finding out how it all ends.
