The Bride is back, working her way through the hit list she scrawled in Kill Bill Vol 1. Having already dispatched O Ren Ishli and Vernita Green, we know she has her sights set on Budd, Elle Driver and finally Bill. But the many twists and turns to the Brides journey test not only her physical prowess but her emotional stability as the story leads up to one final surprise.After dispensing with former colleagues O-Ren Ishii and Vernita Green in Kill Bill: Volume 1, the Bride (Thurman) resumes her quest for justice in the series' second installment, Kill Bill: Volume 2. With those two down, the Bride has two remaining foes on her "Death List" to pursue - Budd (Michael Madsen) and Elle Driver (Daryl Hannah) - before moving on to her ultimate goal... to kill Bill (David Carradine).

The movie is filled with some big name actors, though not all play a significant part in the movie yet (see "Kill Bill: Vol. 2" for that). Uma Thurman is truly superb as the Bride and I can honestly say that this is her best role out of her career. She also was rewarded with a Golden Globe nomination for it. Also really superb in her role was Lucy Liu. Again, also her best role yet. Not of all the trademark Tarantino elements work out well in the movie I definitely missed the typical trademark Tarantino dialog in this movie and for also for most part the trademark non-linear storytelling felled pointless and didn't really served a purpose for the story. It therefor really isn't Tarantino's best but it's definitely his most experimental and most visually orientated, style-full, splendid movie. Unusual, over-the-top but strangely intriguing, entertaining and overall brilliant. Yet another Tarantino must-see!

The second half of what was originally meant to be one long, long film, Volume 2 isn't nearly as good as the first one. On first viewing it's brilliant, but after watching it again you come to realise that there are scenes upon scenes of dialogue with very little happening. Sure, it's vital to the whole movie, but a lot of it could have been taken out to keep it going. Great the first time round, it's up to you as to whether or not you will be watching this enough to warrant owning it.

A sequel that's just as good as the first film, this masterpiece by Quentin Tarantino is a must have for anyone who is into kung fu/action/western fims as well as the idiosyncratic films of Mr Tarantino. Uma Thurman once more delivers as 'The Bride' while Darryl Hannah makes a terrific appearance as a one-eyed assasin - her come-uppance is truly eye-popping! A great film.

The second part in the Kill Bill Series, this one doesnt disappoint, demonstrating the Brides transition into a killing machine with refined kung-fu skills. I love this movie and if you liked part one, you will love this sequel. Filled with action and great cinematography, this movie kicks ass. 5/5
