Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair

Just let yourself be entertained. Imagination, creativity, homage, recycling, all together to give us an immense enjoyment. With or without references, it is an appreciable work. Warning: It can cause an irresistible urge to purchase katanas, retro trainers, classic cars, take kung fu classes, take Japanese classes, watch anime, give a scratch to a pimp, sell the trailer and hug your kids to the sound of a Morriconian sundown.

Saw this in the cinema last night and after years of waiting wasn't disappointed.

The film feels as fresh and odd now as it did when I saw parts 1 and 2 on DVD back in the day.

The more seamless spit between the films also enhances the narrative with one plot detail held back from the audience as it was initially intended.

The film is very, very long at 4hr 15 mins with the intermission and like Snyder's Justice League makes me ask if theres a happy middle ground to trim a bit off the film to make it a bit more palatable.

But beside that I would say this is the best way to watch Kill Bill from this point. Here's hoping that they keep this and the other versions in print on disc going forwards.

Last thing - dont bother to stay for the Fortnite BS they stuck on after the credits. Calling it 'The Lost Chapter' is correct as its clear it was excised before it was shot by QT, but telling it in Fortnite is bloody awful. It manages to slightly sour the previous 4hrs and 15 mins (which is why I dont count inmt in the run time).

This the only way to watch this movie everything flows so smoothly. The sure power of this version blows you away. If you can a find a way to watch it you'll have the best 4 hours of your life

Brilliantly cast and beautifullly shot by Tarantino. A tale told by two movies each with their own identity yet flow seamlessly together. Funny. Horrifying. Poetic. Gentle. Brutal. Beautiful. Efficient and minimal yet expansive and vast at the same time. A tale of revenge told through a stunningly beautiful lens. A Shakespearean Tragedy and comedy. A masterpiece.

At last the whole bloody affair in one sitting at the theatre how it was ment to be! Just over four hours of great action, beautiful dialogue, great acting , plenty of blood. An amazing homage to those martial films of the 70s. A flawless soundtrack, Easter eggs aplenty. Hopefully it'll be released in a 4k format one day as one day at the theatre was not enough. I know plenty of people have seen parts one and then two. But do yourself a favour see it like it was ment to be seen.
