Full review
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 Vol 2. 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 Vol 2 is most definitely the icing and decorations.
In both movies we have excellent acting, scripting and direction (as we have come to expect from Tarrantino).
You will however either love or hate this movie, there is no in betweens.
In my view this two parter movie is a classic.
