A quick review of Tarantino's "Deathproof"
I understand this movie came out a year ago or so, but I just watched it on HBO did see if it got better since. I'll make this short and to the point (and I'll try not to spoil much):
1.) Loved Kurt Russell.
2.) Loved the song the first quartet of women were listening to in their car before they met Stuntman Mike on the road. It's called "Hold Tight" by Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich, a British band from the 60's. Listen here.
3.) Loved the crash the first quartet of women were involved with and was happy with the outcome (I'm chomping at the bit 'cause I wanna say something different but I promised I wouldn't spoil it for you). Here it is - listen for "Hold Tight".
The rest of the movie - sucked. Tarantino needs to shut up. The entire movie theater was in an uproar - yelling at the screen. He's got great movies but what's the sense of great dialouge if the characters go on and on and on and on and people leave the theater???
Some quick observations:
1) Zoe Bell should stick to being a stuntwoman.
2) Jordan Ladd's acting in the car during "Hold Tight" was cute.
3) Rosario Dawson and Vanessa Ferlito - alright, and Sydney Tamiia Poitier all annoyed the shit out of me. SHUT THE FUCK UP!
4) Quentin Tarantino needs to stop acting in his own films. Or just stop acting period.
