Seems familiar?! No time to think about it

Most of the plots, bridges, martial arts scenes, costumes, and soundtracks in "Kill Bill vol.1" are familiar to Hong Kong people, but the stimulating and bold mismatches are indeed dizzying. For example, a melee in Japanese Disco is 90% similar to the inn first in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", except for the spurting/black-and-white picture of course. The bloody shots in the film are indeed shocking, but the freshness brought out by the interlacing of various familiar fragments is also very memorable.

Director Quentin Tarantino said that the story is getting smoother and smoother, unlike the jumper in the previous "PulpFiction". Although the story uses a lot of flashbacks, it can still be divided into four parts: the beginning, the inheritance, the transfer, and the integration. The protagonist was brutally murdered in the wedding is "Qi", and when the protagonist wakes up from the hospital, it is "Success". In Okinawa, Japan, it is "Turn" to get the katana. A large number of introductions and foreshadowings were inserted in the middle, and the mystery and the answer appeared everywhere, so that the audience was asked to get a headshot, but the bloody violence that was carried out throughout made people breathless, and there was no time to think about it. It is worth mentioning that the soundtrack cannot be stopped in the film. Just imagine who is daring enough to use Latin music with a samurai sword to fight, not to mention the rhythm of the two and the unexpected coincidence, which is nothing to say.

Look forward to "Kill Bill vol.2" closely.

    Half the credit for Quentin's violent aesthetic is the soundtrack, which is not only pleasant to the ears but also harmonious with the plot - even if you forget all the plot, you will remember the soundtrack. The ultimate camera usage, dreamy music arrangement, magical flashback matching, ethereal plot trend, black and white group battles, all are a joke made by Quentin in the 21st century, a pleasing joke! Uma Thurman is so handsome, especially the decisive battle in the Aoba House, oh no, it is the snowy battle outside the house! PS: The costume pays tribute to Bruce Lee from Game of Death.

Kill Bill: Vol. 1 quotes

  • [after Bill tells her not to kill The Bride]

    Elle Driver: Thought that was pretty fuckin' funny, didn't you? Word of advice, shithead - don't you ever wake up.

  • O-Ren Ishii: [after she cuts off Tanaka's head, in Japanese] So you all will know the seriousness of my warning, I shall say this in English.

    O-Ren Ishii: [in English] As your leader, I encourage you from time to time, and always in a respectful manner, to question my logic. If you're unconvinced that a particular plan of action I've decided is the wisest, tell me so, but allow me to convince you and I promise you right here and now, no subject will ever be taboo. Except, of course, the subject that was just under discussion. The price you pay for bringing up either my Chinese or American heritage as a negative is... I collect your fucking head. Just like this fucker here. Now, if any of you sons of bitches got anything else to say, now's the fucking time!

    [pause]

    O-Ren Ishii: I didn't think so.

    O-Ren Ishii: [calmly, in Japanese] Gentlemen, this meeting is adjourned.
