Just perfect!
Perhaps the best movie of Tarantino, with excellent story, music and acting! Bill is not showing in this film but when your hear his voice or see hum to walk is enough for fearing him!
The Bride is the best fighter on this planet , seeking her revenge which deserves!
Many victims , blood , blood , and more blood but without to bother you!
Just see it and you definetely you will enjoy it!

'Kill Bill: Volume 1' is a violent and stylish masterpiece from Quentin Tarantino. From it's opening scene, Tarantino is quite clear with his intentions with this film and tells his audience from the get-go that they are in for a bloody ride. Led by the amazing Uma Thurman, who plays the unnamed role of The Bride with perfection, the first part of Kill Bill consists of glorious fight scenes, excellent screenplay and a compelling, non-linear plot line. Despite the film feeling a little muddled at times due to it's blend of different genres, it ultimately is solid and consistent enough to still consider it as a great film. Tarantino's effective use of soundtrack contributes greatly to the film, with highlights being 'Bang Bang' by Nancy Sinatra and a great cover of 'Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood' by Santa Esmeralda. While many viewers may be repulsed by the over-the-top and gory violence, others can appreciate the glory of it. It can be quite excessive at some points which can seem unnecessary, but this is Tarantino doing what he loves best. The final scenes at the House of Blue Leaves is a breathtaking sequence of fight scenes that is masterfully choreographed and a perfect ending to Volume 1. Tarantino ends this film on a perfect cliffhanger that will have it's viewers immediately wanting to delve into Volume 2.

This film should definitely not be in the top 250 list. It was a nice film, time passed rather quickly, it was enjoyable but nothing more. I liked the casting, especially Uma Thurman as the Bride and the script was original and refreshing to see a female lead that is strong both physically and mentally. But all the gore, blood shooting out of hands like it's some kind of weird anime, the Bride basically airwalking in half the scenes, and her basically being ready for anything after her being in a coma for four years is nonsense. Furthermore, what's with all the black and white scenes? It seems Tarantino was trying to hard to impress everyone and make them talk about this film..I suppose I don't like Tarantino's directing style.Other than that, it's worth a shot if you like these kind of films, or Tarantino himself.

Movie Review: "Kill Bill Vol.1" (2003)Making no prisoners, director Quentin Tarantino returns after a six year break from directing with his fourth motion picture, distributed to the last by Bob & Harvey Weinstein run Hollywood Label "Miramax Films", the director and his leading lady actress Uma Thurman bring action thriller beats to the maximum, when "Kill Bill Vol.1" unfolds a revenge story of a woman left for dead after a bullet to her head from her lover as father-like mentor, the character of Bill, portrayed by match-making actor Keith Carradine (1936-2009), once leader of a "Death Squad", which then just betrayed one of their own.Supporting cast, which then build the Bride character's infamous "Death List" by the one-by-one confrontations are stunningly translated into visual film language by director/writer Quentin Tarantino, who centers each characters' background story, the resurrection of "The Bride" and a uniquely-received, highly-stylized as accurately-researched Japanese production design by Yohei Taneda in the razor-sharp, ultra-violent action sequence at a Tokyo restaurant that the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) needed to insist on some on-screen color corrections towards color-forces in blood-splashing reds turn suddenly black-and-white in an blink of an eye that furthermore only the "uncensored" Asian Market Version of "Kill Bill Vol.1", especially in Japan, came into the full splendor to watch actress Uma Thurman, in a Bruce "Enter The Dragon" Lee (1940-1973) homaging yellow-black training suit, fight presumingly eighty-eight yakuza opponents with a samurai sword.There is only left to lift the hat on director Quentin Tarantino's dedication for the original writing, well-researched source material that is just an amazing joy to watch "Kill Bill Vol.1" in its pitch-perfect as accelerated 105-Minute-Cut by Tarantino's editor of the first "Reservoir Dogs" minute Sally Menke (1953-2010), making utmost use of cinematographer Robert Richardson's excellent shot 35mm raw footage alongside a pumping musical score by RZA, member of the 1991 New York based band the "Wu-Tang Clan".Copyright 2018 Cinemajesty Entertainments LLC
