A Mesmerizing masterpiece. I've seen this film and part one several times, and again just now. I don't compare this to part one, being that it's the continuation of one long movie. This film transcends the martial arts / Kung Fu genre in ways never done before and with an unforgettable uniqueness. When I think of what I consider to be Tarantino's best films/screenplays--The Kill Bill saga is in my top three. I can't write a review because too many have already been written; however, This is a must see extravaganza of violence, martial arts, incredible characters with rich development, and of course the fantastic dialogue which Tarantino seems to be unequaled in creating. Uma Thurman was a freaking beast and should've gotten an Oscar for best actress. We know that would never happen even though it would've been great if the world were a bit cooler and open minded. I _love_ this film.
