I watched this movie on Netflix.
There are several Tarantino still on my list that I need to see. And I finally knocked off the Kill Bill films from that list.
While not as great as some of his other films, like say Inglorious Bastards, this film is still a lot of fun and good. Though you can already really see Tarantino's foot fetish getting into his movies here.
A story of revenge, from a strong woman with a lot of will power to avenge the death of her fiance and unborn child at the hands of her former lover and boss, Bill.
The movie was too long at first, and Tarantino was forced to split it into a Part 1 and Part 2.
As of such, the first part suffers a little from that with how it is an incomplete story that doesn't meet a resolution to stand on it's own as a single film. You're really meant to watch them back to back, but it's still good as is! It's hard to hold that against a movie in a case like this.
It is a solid action film with some great acting and high stakes.
Mistake Status: N/A.
9.7/10. One of Uma Thurman's best movies of the 2000's. She plays The Bride well alongside a great cast consisting of David Carradine, Vivica Fox, and Lucy Liu. The whole thing is a tribute to spaghetti westerns, foreign revenge movies, and martial arts too. One of the best scenes is the blood soaked fight between her and The Crazy 88's, well done choreography here. I would definitely recommend it for only hardcore fans of such movies, nobody under 18 or faint of heart. Uma Thurman's great here.

Vernita Green: I fucked you up. I fucked you up bad, I wish to God that I hadn't, but I did. Be that as it may, I know I don't deserve your mercy or forgiveness, however, I beseech you for both on behalf of my daughter.
The Bride: Bitch, you can stop right there. Just because I have no intention of killing you before the eyes of your daughter does not mean that parading her around in front of me is gonna inspire sympathy. You and I have unfinished business, and not a goddam fuckin thing you've done in the subsequent four years, including getting knocked up, is gonna change that.
Trivia: The Japanese version of "Kill Bill" is longer and contains even more violence and gore.
