This woman, she deserves her revenge. And we deserve to die.

If you didn't think Quentin Tarantino was at least a little screwed up, Kill Bill Volume 2 will convince you. The most striking thing about it was how incredibly different it was from Volume 1. Where Volume 1 was fast paced, high energy, and full of bright style, Volume 2 is slower, dialog heavy, and has a wonderful dark style.

But it does manage to twist genre's like the first. Most of the film is a classic Tarantino movie, but it has this cheesy Kung Fu movie stuck in the middle. Once again, if you'd told me this concept on paper I would have cringed, but it works beautifully.

With more dialog of course comes more humor (since it's Tarantino.) So we get to laugh more, which takes the edge off the gory scenes. But beware, this isn't for the feint hearted. Two scenes in particular are very gruesome, including one that may be the most horrifying I've ever seen - and is only tolerable because we know Uma survives it.

If you're a Tarantino fan, you can't miss this one.
