[Movie] Grindhouse

Yeah, basically having low standards doesn't help anyone, Akira.

Frankly I've always found Tarantino's stuff pretentious, so that I might like his style, but his substance is usually way off. The final confrontation between Bill and whatsherface was pretty slick, but expecting me to be seriously invested in the characters was kinda laughable at that point. Tarantino had thrown in his cards with the sensationalism department and never looked back.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I enjoyed certain scenes, which were choreographed or organized well, but asking me to take any of his stuff seriously is something else entirely.

It's an indulgence, like you said. Good occasionally, but then you don't eat chocolate cake for every meal.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
