Kill Bill Vol. 1 (2003)
Country: US
Technical: col/bw 111m
Director: Quentin Tarantino
Cast: Uma Thurman, Lucy Liu, Vivica A. Fox, Daryl Hannah, David Carradine, Michael Madsen, Julie Dreyfus
Synopsis:
A former assassin sets out to avenge herself on those who took part in the massacre of her friends, groom and unborn child at a rehearsal for her wedding. Her vendetta takes her to a suburban neighbourhood and an exclusive nightspot in Tokyo.
Review:
Jokey, reference-crammed, but on its own terms deadly serious piece of pulp, born of the director's reverential passion for spaghetti westerns and martial arts films. It certainly bests all comers in matters of style and conviction, and provides Thurman with an iconic role, possibly a career-defining one.
