DVD Reviews of Grindhouse Presents, Death Proof - Extended and Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition)

DVD Review: Grindhouse presents: Death Proof
Summary: 5 Stars

The movie was in great condition and it played great. I will continue to by from you for the simple fact you understand what it means great customer satification!

DVD Review: Total bore
Summary: 2 Stars

I am a huge fan of Quentin Tarantino. I have seen Reservoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Four Rooms, Dusk til Dawn, Jackie Brown and a few others. Loved them all. But, this film was FREAKING SLOW!! OMG, I was falling asleep in the first 30 minutes. And by the final car chase scene (WHICH WAS AWESOME). I was desperately wanting the get the hell out of the theater. WAY too much talking and not nearly enough action.

DVD Review: Nowhere near as good as it should be
Summary: 3 Stars

This is Tarantino's weakest film.

A lot of this is taken up with pointless, meandering dialogue - way below his usual standard.

Some of the action is incredibly well filmed, but overall this disappoints.

DVD Review: Death Proof
Summary: 4 Stars

I'll be rather straight-forward, I like this much better than Planet Terror. I know I am in the minority, but I can only express my own feelings. On the visceral level, it was truly high impact. On the emotional level, the many characters are given smart, sassy and even thought provoking dialogue. Tarantino should be applauded for taking a chance on what he wanted to do. I will furthermore state; this is a better film than Kill Bill Vol.One.

DVD Review: The best "crappy movie"
Summary: 5 Stars

I don't really know why I like Death Proof as much as I do. I mean, this movie has a storyline barely enough to make a 30-minute TV episode. But Tarantino made a 90-minute movie out of it - and a very satisfying one at that. You will notice its scrathcy print, imperfect sound, sloppy editing and switch between color and black & white. But please keep in mind that all that is done on purpose. Why? Because this is not a regular movie. Its a parody of the kind of B-grade movies commonly shown in drive-in theaters during the late 60's to early 70's. Such theaters were known as Grindhouse. This movie goes out of its way to give you that authentic old-B-grade-movies-from-60's feel and look. Death Proof's beginning is very boring but necessary. It gradually starts building your excitement towards the middle and by the end it gives a very solid adrenaline rush. If you like voluptuous females and car chases, give it a shot. You might like it too!

Description of Grindhouse Presents, Death Proof - Extended and Unrated (Two-Disc Special Edition)

A deranged stuntman stalks his victims from the safety of his killer car but when he picks on the wrong group of badass babes all bets are off in an adrenaline-pumping high speed white-knuckle automotive duel of epic proportions where anything can happen. System Requirements:Run Time: 113 minutes Genre:?ACTION/ADVENTURE UPC:?796019803885
Loud, fast, and proudly out of control, Grindhouse is a tribute to the low-budget exploitation movies that lurked at drive-ins and inner city theaters in the '60s and early '70s. Writers/directors Quentin Tarantino (Kill Bill) and Robert Rodriguez (Sin City) cooked up this three-hour double feature as a way to pay homage to these films, and the end result manages to evoke the down-and-dirty vibe of the original films for an audience that may be too young to remember them. Tarantino's Death Proof is the mellower of the two, relatively speaking; it's wordier (as to be expected) and rife with pulp/comic book posturing and eminently quotable dialogue. It also features a terrific lead performance by Kurt Russell as a homicidal stunt man whose weapon of choice is a souped-up car. Tarantino's affection for his own dialogue slows down the action at times, but he does provide showy roles for a host of likable actresses, including Rosario Dawson, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Rose McGowan, Sydney Poitier, and newcomer Zoe Bell, who was Uma Thurman's stunt double in Kill Bill. Detractors may decry the rampant violence and latch onto a sexist undertone in Tarantino's feature, but for those viewers who grew up watching these types of films in either theaters or on VHS, such elements will be probably be more of a virtue than a detrimental factor. -- Paul Gaita
