The Plot: The bride (Uma Thurman) continues her roaring rampage of revene in what is the second half of her quest to, er, Kill Bill (David Carradine)
The Buzz: The first part of Quentin Tarantino's ultra-violent ode to martial arts movies split audiences like a samurai sword, and Volume 2 is unlikely to win over any new followers to the bride's quest. Luckily, we've been promised more of Tarantino's razor-sharp dialogue - sadly lacking last time round - amongst the severed limbs and fountains of blood, as Uma attemps to off Elle Driver, Budd and the eponymous Bill. Besides, we'll only be able to properly assess the work when we see it as one bloody whole - watched as a single movie, it is be something very special indeed.
The Disc: Kill Bill: Volume 1 arrived on DVD a few months ago accompanied by a little more than a moderately engaging featurette, so expect more of the disappointing same when Volume two appears in the Autumn. That said, it might be an idea for Tarantino fans to keep their Samurai patience, because the big-chinned one has expressed his desire to assemble a kick-ass extras package - a Kill Bill double bill is probably as inevitable as Bill's eventual death.
