Great cast in a great movie. Have the Japanese dvd release also which does not switch to black and white during the fight scene. Which was only done to keep from getting an X rating.
Personal notes, ramble. 2025-08-08 22:41
I want to give this 10/10 but I'm still in the process of watching more movies to see which movie would give me a deep impression, so 9/10 for now. Man I wish trakt has decimal I want to give this 9.5.
I love this so much goddamn.
A tinge of comedy, action, the acting, the ost, how the story flows, the way it keeps me at my toe when things start to get intense. It's a stupid movie in a good way.
How the hell did she able to bring katana to airplane?
The film started with the second victim, an interesting and excellent direction, it's because the kill was quick and it hooked you up.
The killings are absurd, I chuckled a lot when those happens cause this movie gives a comical vibe.
When Bill appears on scene it's always tense though, you don't know what he gonna do or what he up to.
You gotta talk about the action tho. Whoo boy, it's so great, but sometimes there are a lot of physically impossible moves like how the bride front flipped without any preparation or when the black mask bald head flew from 1st floor to 2nd floor in the japanese club. I guess this movie isn't supposed to be the realistic kind. Reminded me of chinese action movie
The fight between the bride and Gogo tho, damn it's good, Gogo used the swinging weapon so well.
There was also animation when telling O-Ren's backstory lmao it's so random I love it. The randomness also extend to the ost, like meme-like sound when introducing the O-Ren's goons, are those sound actually where the meme originated from?
You don't feel the time watching this, your eyes glued to the screen, each chapter leaves you curious of what will happen next.
