Touches You

A brilliant film that helped define a genre

To all those who have watched it: I hope you enjoyed it as much as I do.

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

It has some unexpected moments, Carradine and Hannah steal the show with their memorable performance and Thurman is good here. Questions are answered, chapter eight and last chapter are masterpieces. It is a Spaghetti Western (with Ennio Morricone and Robert Rodriguez music) with some kung fu influences. While Vol.1 was a homage to old samurai movies, Vol.2 is a homage to old kung fu movies and Sergio Leone's Spaghetti Westerns. His best and most emotional movie so far! However, i still find Vol.1 superior.

The first Kill Bill was a disappointment for me. I thought the movie was too slow moving and uninteresting and let's not even talk about that terrible animation. Overall though, the action scenes were fantastic and I hoped there would be a better story. Kill Bill 2 is exactly that. Though it has less action, it's way more compelling.First of all, the story is way more awesome. We start out with this excellent scene in black and white of The Bride's wedding. I found this story to be way more interesting than in the first even though the main outline is the same. The Bride has three more people to kill on her revenge quest. The action is also quite good. Like the first, it's really violent but in a comic book way, not too serious. It's entertaining.What I would've changed is the drama. At the end, it gets a little too melodramatic. Even though there's a lot of suspense, I could've easily cut out 10 minutes.Overall, Kill Bill 2 is an excellent Tarantino movie with some good dialogue, story and action.

"Kill Bill Vol 2" is different from the first, betting on phenomenal dialogues, screenplay and gratuitously controlled violence, a sequel to the wonderful Kill Bill, with less exaggeration, less reference and a much more cadenced film, preoccupied with telling the beginning and the end, It falls in technical terms, but it wins in terms of script, besides being a much more film with a face of Tarantino, although it is a technical reference, as a technical reference and the exaggerations of the first. (2 more than the first), we are not a journey, forget only the abatements, come here the important is The development of the work, the development of it, except for our protagonist, is completely humanized and badly rememberable of the killer Which it is. Technically the film is much more restrained than the first in all respects, nothing blends cinematographic styles or guiding the film with songs, none of it, but very cool details, with the use of camera, open plans, zoom abuse In And zoom out, the closing of Sergio Leone, as well as its details, a montage of the film leaves a belly, in addition to being much slower in relation to the first, until a soundtrack plunges, because in the second, the Silence and contemplation pattern More the scene than the track itself. A cool thing in the second film is how performances, which gain a notorious quality leap with Michel Madsen and David Carradine, and even the entrepreneur Pai Mei played by Gordon Liu. Finally, "Kill Bill Vol. 2" is much less experimental, even of the two being recorded together, a change of style in the two films is completely notorious, the second is the opposite of an experience, is a film centered, with all as Signatures of Tarantino, is a good movie, Only with less charm.

Kill Bill Vol. 2, the second part of the fourth film of Quentin Tarantino, is a homage to spaghetti western and martial arts movies.After of the Bride defeated to Vernita Green and O-Ren Ishii, she must cope with Elle Driver, Budd and his brother, Bill. The beginning, like in the previous film, has a strong scene because we see when Bill shoots to the Bride and she tell us directly about her revenge's travel and her final objective: Kill Bill.The elements of spaghetti western films present in this movie are: - The desert environment. - The rough and tough characters. - The dirty aesthetic. - The soundtrack for gives more intensity to confrontation scenes: the Bride & Bill, the Bride vs the grave, the Bride vs Elle. In my opinion, these scenes are the best of this film.As a curiosity, Tarantino uses part of the Ennio Morricone's soundtrack from 'The good, the bad and the ugly' in the chapter six, when Bill finds the Bride.The elements of martial arts films present in Kill Bill Vol. 2, especially in chapter 8, are: - The story about the Old China. - The Kung-fu fights. - The hard training for become a great warrior. - The respect to the master and the revenge for his murder.The movie is divided into five parts: - The chapter six (The massacre of Two Pines): The Bride remembers the last essay of her wedding. - The chapter seven (The lonely grave of Paula Schultz): The Bride confronts to Budd but she is buried alive. - The chapter eight (The cruel tutelage of Pai Mei): The Bride remembers her training with Pai Mei. - The chapter nine (Elle and I): Budd dies and, Elle and the Bride fights - The last chapter (Face to face): Beatrix Kiddo goes to Mexico, she faces to Bill and she discovers that her daughter is alive.This second part is really good for this long revenge story, so anyone can feel satisfaction for conclusion of this film.
