Reviews for Kill Bill Vol. 2
An impressive, engrossing and almost nostalgic tribute to a world found only in the movies, and to the movies it was found in.

...or, How to Turn One Brilliant Experience Into Two Very Good Ones
04/15/04
There's more wordplay than swordplay in this thorough conclusion, but that just gives writer-director Quentin Tarantino room to strut his cinematic talents.
04/15/04
They spend a little too much time yapping, not enough time whacking. Especially in a movie called Kill Bill.
04/15/04
Top CriticCoppola’s fourth film as a director was The Godfather and Scorsese’s was Taxi Driver. Tough acts to follow, but Tarantino gives it his best shot with Kill Bill.
04/15/04
Tarantino promised that Vol. 2 would be more of his style of slick dialogue, pop culture, & badass characters, with a little less action. That's a vast understatement.
04/15/04
As gloriously cinematic as it is completely over the top in the best possible way.
04/15/04
Tarantino crafts tranquil conversational dialogue so powerful, I was practically moved to tears despite said conversation not being particularly emotional.
04/15/04
Kill Bill, Vol. 2 is pure B-movie bliss.
04/15/04
This movie, for all of its showmanship and technique, diminishes the first one.
04/15/04
the tension Carradine and Thurman generate in the pivotal scene, as bloodlust collides with memories of happier days, is utterly riveting.
04/15/04
Kill Bill's two-pack isn't of Godfather caliber ... [b]ut its scope, filmmaking ambition and uniquely twisted point of view make it worthy of being seen some day in a chronological home version.
04/15/04
Top CriticWhen not being a colossal bore, Tarantino takes pleasure in offending our moral sensibilities with his adoring portrait of a natural born killer with a thirst for revenge.
04/15/04
Vol. 2 is nowhere near as explicit in its violence [as Vol. 1], but it is more emotionally explicit.
04/15/04
Kill Bill, Volumes 1 and 2 are great fun, but when they're over there's nothing to make us question our addiction to violent fantasies of retribution. The whole is a little less than the sum of its volumes.
04/15/04
Technically, it's an exhilarating piece of filmmaking.
04/15/04
Quentin Tarantino's deliciously perverse semisequel is the most voluptuous comic-book movie ever made.
04/15/04
Top CriticA blast of pure pop pleasure.
04/15/04
Vol. 2 concludes the tale, but it heads to the finish line with a casual stroll, not a sprint.
