Not quite as fun as the first film, but Kill Bill Vol. 2 welcomes in the return of Tarantino’s fresh and interesting dialogue scenes that his fans have missed for so long. Aside from that, this is mostly the same in the same league as the first film. Its just as over-the-top, just as violent, just as implausible, and just as much of a tribute to everything the director loves (spaghetti westerns, martial arts flicks, exploitation, etc).
The film picks up right where the last one left off. After slaughtering a crap load of hitmen, the Bride returns to America to wipe out the remaining members of the Deadly Viper Assasanation Squad and to finally take her revenge on Bill once and for all.
The film utilizes a good amount of flashbacks which helps the story move along fine and dandy but its not quite the cup of tea that the first film was. But who cares, it lives up to it well enough and its nothing more than prime vintage Tarantino good-ness.
