denoir 0 Posted January 6, 2004 Just saw the bugger on DVD. I know it's a bit late, but I just had to express my amazement. It's without a doubt the best damn kung-fu flick ever made. Or is it an exploatation flick, or spaghetti western or a splatter movie? Probably all of those, combined in a brilliant way. If you havn't seen it, drop all you are doing and rent, buy, borrow, download or steal it right now! Tarantino rules Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dauragon 0 Posted January 6, 2004 I disagree there are many kung fu movies that are better then that, even my own made ones Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baron Hurlothrumbo IIX 0 Posted January 6, 2004 I liked it. Not as good as the Lone Wolf and Cub series, but the influence they undoubtadly made on the Kill Bill made it very good. And it's not a kung fu movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tex -USMC- 0 Posted January 6, 2004 Best kung fu movie ever was what I thought when I saw it, too. And the fact that I didn't have to pay to see it was nice, too- having friends working at the theater kicks ass Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RED 0 Posted January 6, 2004 It thought it was great, the actors were perfectly cast, the story telling was orginal and the music was top notch. Before I went to see it, I was told that it was  awful, this lowered my expectations so I was amazed when I went to see it. RED Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Necromancer- 0 Posted January 6, 2004 When I saw the film... I just loved it! I love the Japanese anime part where the story of O-ren Ishii was told. Quote[/b] ]When you say "Harrriiiiigato!!", we say "Harrrrriiiiii gato!!!" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
denoir 0 Posted January 6, 2004 I loved the music (I laughed my ass off when they started playing Louis Bacalov pieces (famous spaghetti western composer)). Also the change of visual styles was brilliant. Did you notice the pirate sequence in the bar fight Å• la Errol Flynn? The saying "The Devil is in the Details" could not be more true for Tarantino's works. There are small gems all over the place. This is the best movie I've seen in a long long while Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
