Meh. Nothing special or maybe I just didn't get it. Oh well. Good thing I saw it in a matinee. And that Gogo girl is fuuuugly. Uma looked good in that Crazy 88 fight though.

cliff notes?
Here's what I gathered from it
-He likes Asian cinema but isn't cocky about it.
-Tarantino knows his shit, and the movie is likeable w/o extensive knowledge of Chop Sockey cinema. There was Backlash prior to KBs release, from QTs typical detractors.
-CTHD is NOT a good model for 'asian' cinema, because it is an exception, and exceptional.
-Elle Drivers brief scene is a cinematic masterpiece.
-"Borrowing" != hack film making, and is encouraged by legendary directors.
-Despite it's delectable sensual overload of ultramegahardcore style equivalent to sex with a top tier supermodel, it's still incomplete. Total judgement to be withheld until Vol. 2.
-Soundtrack kicks much ass.
And nice review Eric
