Set during a time that very much resembles Europe during the Middle Ages, BESERK is a story of revenge set in the castle town of Midland. Recently, the town has seen the rise of a wicked king, who uses demonic minions to control and victimise his subjects. However, when a lone soldier enters the town calling himself the Black Swordsman and armed to the teeth, many sense that the king's days of unchecked oppression are over. Soon, the Black Swordsman is plying his trade by hunting down the king's evil servants, giving no quarter, and preparing to exact his vengeance on the king.

Advantages: An excellent rip-roaring conclusion to an excellent first part, Tarantino at his best.Pure genius in celluloid. Disadvantages: A shame there is not a 3rd part to this movie.
...When Tarantino released Kill Bill Vol 1, it was met with wide acclaim, some positive some not so positive, claiming he had just made a bloodfest and was into shocking people, true the original movie was graphic in parts but I believe it paved the way for Vol2.
In Vol 1. we see that the charcter played by Uma Thurman has been wronged (to put it mildly) and is merely exacting her perceived revenge for the loss of her child and nearly her life but we know little of the depths of the charcaters.
In Vol2. we get more in depth information relating to the characters in the movie, and we get the cataclysmic ending that just the movie justice.
Vol 1 was the jammy sponge for the film and Vol2 is most definitely the icing and decorations.
In both movies we have excellent acting, scripting and direction (as we have come to expect from...

Advantages: Clever and Action Packed! Disadvantages: Not for the faint of heart.
...My husband and I are regular film goers and we love Tarantino ... I love the way he is so distorted and gory!
Kill Boll Vol 1 was incredibly easy to follow for Tarantino ... although the film does jump about a little the basic story line is very apparent.
The affects are amazing ... maybe to life like for the wear stomached amoungst us!
Its a big one up for girl power and Uma is simply beautiful and excellent throughout. I thought this would be a butch bloke film but I was wrong ... girls its amazing!
I am waiting for Vol2 with anticipation ... my husband and I left the cinema on the edge of our seats and ready for the next one.
I will definately be trying to get advanced screening tickets for Vol2.
Happy watching!...
