Tarantino's filmmaking prowess has been honed like one of Sonny Chiba's blades and...his homage to chop socky goodness is flawless.

Reviews for Kill Bill Vol. 1
Volume 1 is a pure sugar-rush, an adrenaline-packed needle that injects wild fun into almost every conceivable vein.
04/14/04
...a gymnastic ballet of violence and a veritable orgy in blood.
04/03/04
Tarantino is no dilettante. He smartly sticks to what he knows, steals from the best, and makes his films his own.
04/01/04
As kung fu films go, this is one of the best I've ever seen.
03/17/04
'Filmmaking genius or blood-loving freak? Tarantino is a bit of both ...'
01/30/04
An audacious, inventive and relentless action movie.
01/15/04
Brutally bloody and thrillingly callous from first to last.
01/15/04
...a movie with such raw ambition and spirit that it literally reinvents the standards of everything it can be associated with.

'Tarantino logra un buen trabajo a secas. Ninguna obra maestra, pero si una buena cinta para pasar el rato y reírse de las exageraciones mostradas'
01/09/04
Confesso que ri ao perceber que daria 5 estrelas para este longa – mas qualquer outra cotação seria injusta e preconceituosa.
01/05/04
It's all about energy. It's constant and, for me, addicting.
01/02/04
If genre imitation is at epidemic levels, Tarantino still holds the title of original master, and the guy most likely to be stolen from.

[Tarentino]’s back in high style, drawing on such sources as martial arts movies and Japanese animation to create a vivid world all his own.
12/31/03
Quentin Tarantino makes terrible movies really, really well.
12/30/03
(...) una fiesta, una orgía de sangre, humor y locura desmedida, excesiva y caprichosa, seguramente no del gusto de todos.
12/16/03
Tarantino is now halfway to creating another classic on his short list of outstanding accomplishments. It’s splendid to see him back in action.
12/04/03
But if Kill Bill: Volume 1 is the creation of a director with a lot to show, it's also the work of one with not very much to say.
11/14/03
Kill Bill, Volume 1 is Quentin Tarantino's amazing fourth film and the first chapter of a tantalizing homage to 1970s action and blaxploitation.
11/11/03
Really, it seemed to me that Tarantino was merely trying to shock people into forgetting the idiocracy of what was happening on screen.
