Having already crossed two names from her Death List, the Bride resumes her quest for justice, taking aim at Budd and Elle Driver, the only survivors from the squad of assassins who betrayed her four years earlier. It's all leading up to the ultimate confrontation with Bill The Bride's former master and the man who ordered her execution. (Miramax Films)

A star better than Vol 1. It has more good dialogues (which is where Tarantino traditionally excels), the story is told in a more interesting way (the first part is pretty straightforward, unlike the second) and there’s less action (which I don’t think it’s bad). The scene with Pai Mei, who loves to constantly fix his moustache, is hilarious.

Quentin Tarantino is very original and his directing is apparent every single second, whether it's the craftsmanship (black and white passages, animated parts, etc.) or the content. More than bloody killings, he focuses on what makes a film a film (dialogues, characters, etc.) and he does it well. Uma Thurman is excellent, David Carradine is a superb villain, and it's all very stylish.

I rate both parts of Kill Bill highly. They are a pure pleasure for me, as they fully satisfy my cravings as a movie fan. However, I don’t like the fact that the saga as a whole is divided into two films. That’s partly because there is a spoiler at the end of the first one solely for commercial reasons, which kills the main point of the entire 200-minute saga. And also because the individual parts are stylistically incongruous. After watching the first one, I wanted the second one to have the same brisk pace and eccentric style. And when watching the second one, I longed to experience the events of the first one in the same crystal-clear Tarantino form (slower pace, intense dialogue) that the second one has.

While the first movie was just a showcase of Tarantino the director, this time the story gets a word in. Uma no longer has to strut her kung fu stuff, so she no longer looks like a paddle come to life and, most importantly, Quentin has moved closer to Sergio Leone. Which greatly benefits the movie (and Tarantino). A massive benefit! ♫ OST score: 4/5

What I liked about Kill Bill is partially subdued in the second part. The first film was mainly about action, which was absolutely captivating, but I loved the movie primarily for its delightful B-movie charm, which was perfected with great visuals, and the characters and their dialogues. Tarantino shifted away from action and brought characters and dialogue to the forefront, which resulted in a different but not worse second film, rather even better in some respects. He elevated action battles to an art form. Listening to the dialogues is truly delightful because they remain engaging even during relatively calm passages. The conversation with Bill and its outcome is an absolutely captivating scene and the pinnacle of David Carradine's career. Tarantino can do that. Just as he can make films that are hard to forget.
