Kill Bill: Vol. 1 (2003) 
Unsubtle detail
|
I usually enjoy the meticulous mind of Tarantino. Though the guy seemed a little in love with himself in this movie. I enjoy seeing cartooney effects applied to real people as much as the next guy. But after what seemed like the 5th beheading it started feeling a little absurd, which may be his point. I thought it was kind of cool to throw a little anime clip in there, even if it was even more unrealistically violent. This is also an overall reprehensible story line.
And yet, I found myself wishing I had also rented volume 2 after I watched this. So I obviously found the absurdity of it all to be enjoyable. I guess that while one part of my mind says, “this is wrong” another part says “cool.” And I think that is what the director wants me to think.
