Kill Bill: Vol.1

Perhaps i heard too many good comments and read good reviews about this show, so i kinda had high expectations for it. But it turned out to be pretty disappointing. Well first Quentin Tarantino movie i've watched. Maybe i'm not used to his style. No doubt the story telling is unique. However the plot is pretty lame. A few loopholes. The fighting scenes are pretty gory at first, but after a while i sort of got used to it. It even becomes a bit funny as blood keep splattering over and over again in the same style (a la happy tree friends). Overall, i think it's an American movie trying too hard to be Japanese-style. Not exactly bad, but definitely not good either. Or maybe it's jus not my cup of coffee.
Dunno wat's up with the movies these days. I know the ang-mos are always impressed with the chinese kung-fu and stuff lidat. But there's too much of these sort of movies. First it's the Matrix, then Kill Bill. Boring. And yeah, i can't stand the idea of "a blonde chick trying to be a samurai".
