    Tarantino is a guy that people either love him or hate him. The great ones always are.

    This guy has an unhealthy obsession with torture. Is Sin City the only movie with TWO castrations?

    I think the great ones must eventually be loved by all, and hated by a few, and I don't think Tarantino will ever get to that point if he continues to disturb instead of provoke thought.

    I counted three. One guy got shot in the genitals, another got axed, and the last one had them ripped off. Too much genital trauma for me.

    I am sure some idiots will. When I was at the 9:30 SAW II there were at least 4 or 5 parents who had their under 12 years old kids with them.

    Looks like Saw. I'll probably pass on this one.

    Hated all of them. I really don't like gratuitous film violence. I don't get the appeal. I turned off Sin City about 20 minutes into it because I just found it disgusting. Ditto for Pulp Fiction. Torture, in particular, makes me sick to my stomach.

    "Bring out the gimp."

    If torture bothers you how are you able to watch the Rockets play? :)

    You are Kidding right?

    The Script over 100 N-words PER CHARACTER
    Ever of the fricking word was N-word .. N-word b-word
    N-word , N-word, N-word b-word

    After about 30 minutes I had to turn the sh*t off
    This of course is after my college roommate had told me
    it was the greatest

    I seriously had second thoughts about him . . .after that

    Once again people, Tarantino didn't write or direct this. He's basically slapping his name on this movie because it most likely sucks ass. The movie needs his name to get his hardcore fans out there to see it, which will hopefully lead to good word of mouth and a good theatrical run. It's the same thing with Cruise, DeNiro, Scorcese, Bruckheimer...names that are guaranteed to generate money no matter how bad the product is.

    Tarantino has been resting on his laurels for quite some time now. You can tell he worked hard for Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction. After that, he just started mailing it in. He's the Stromile Swift of movie-making: so much potential, wasted.

    Pulp Fiction is one of my all time favorite, and I liked Reservoir Dogs pretty well too. But I didn't like Kill Bill at all.

    I loved Kill Bill 1. It hardly seemed like he mailed that one in. Like it or not, a lot of effort was put into the Kill Bill movies.
