After a six-year hiatus, Quentin Tarantino returns to the director's
chair with KILL BILL. The movie proves once again that he is a
hyperactive visionary and the master of cinematic coolness. Split into
two volumes by Miramax in order to ensure that Tarantino's vision would
not be compromised (and presumably to sell more tickets), KILL BILL:
VOL. 1 tells the first half of the sprawling story, which is quite
simple at first glance. A female assassin, referred to as "The Bride"
(Uma Thurman), is attacked on her wedding day. Dead are her soon-to-be
husband and unborn child. However, she doesn't die. Four years later,
she wakes up from a coma looking for revenge. Although her ultimate
target is her former boss, Bill (David Carradine), it's quite clear
that The Bride is saving the best for last. And before she can track
him down, she must methodically take out the minions who ruined her
life. VOLUME 1's targets include Vernita Green/Copperhead (Vivica A.
Fox), Sofie Fatale (Julie Dreyfus), and the heartless O-Ren
Ishii/Cottonmouth (Lucy Liu). Using a blessed sword handmade by Hattori
Hanzo (Sonny Chiba), The Bride begins her relentless assault.
Turning up the style and energy levels that he kept under a threshold
with 1997's JACKIE BROWN, Tarantino's obvious glee and reverence for
the underground kung fu action pictures of the '70s, and Sergio Leone
spaghetti westerns, makes for a stunning visual spectacle. Employing
split screens, slow-motion, an anime sequence, and his trademark
ultra-hip musical selections, Tarantino's film dares viewers to be
unimpressed.
