Kill Bill - Volume 1 (Critique)
Critique of this Tarantino movie. For me, a love affair that started, as love often does - with loathing. Ahh, what a fool I was.
I hated it the first time. Over the top, silly, too long, too violent, too muddled.
But now? Each scene - no, each frame - gorgeously stylised, terrific badass protagonist, perfectly chosen soundtrack (seriously, spot-on), exquisite casting.
It's "too" on purpose.
Oh, and Carridine's voice is *chef's kiss* for Bill.

Paul - Critique
Wildly underrated film. Funny, very quotable, great soundtrack. Pegg and Frost are PERFECT together in this. Jason Bateman's great as well, and Sigourney Weaver puts in an appearance. You'll learn how to cuss like a pro. Should have been in the Cornetto trilogy instead of The World's End.

Rainbows
Rainbows of color all all red, yellow, orange, green, blue now after a rain. (I believe I described a basic rainbow. Also, I do believe I have the 5, 7, 5 pattern of a proper haiku. I had these ideas, and I wanted to get them down before they left me never to return. Hope you read and comment.)

The Rise and Fall of Black Lives Matter.
The Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement, once a powerful force for racial justice, has seen a significant decline in momentum over the years. As someone who has studied the BLM movement extensively, it is important to analyze the factors that led to this decline, including the impact of internal scams and financial mismanagement that ultimately undermined the movement's credibility.

Nailed it!!!💕❤️❤️
Great critique
As always, I've not watched this either. Loved your review!
Thanks...and I love "Black Books," too!
I use to be mad about both films!! Although I haven’t watched for years! Use to play the soundtracks in the car!! It’s ultra stylistic like your critique! 😁
I agree with this! It is too everything all of the time and that's wonderful! The first time I watched it, I didn't really understand it, thought it was just silly. But then I realized that was the point and had a lot more fun the second and third time through!
I know exactly how you feel! As you get older your appreciation for certain things change; kind of like olives, blue cheese, and wine! My taste in films has changed dramatically.
LMAO that clip. effing Peter Serafinowicz lol! But, this is a great critique. Forever, my favourite Tarantino film was always Reservoir Dogs. Then Kill Bill replaced it, it's only pipped to the top spot by Inglorious tho. Kill Bill Vol. 2 is great too and actually reallllllly sad at the end. IMHO...very emotional,
