Review of: Death Proof

1/5 (minimum 1)

by martinp on 14 Jan 2008

I've never been so bored during a Tarantino movie. This tale of a homicidal stuntman (played by Kurt Russell) could have been a decent ten-minute-long film, but in its long form, full of directionless dialogue, it's unbelievably dull. Plenty of opportunities to introduce suspense or other interest are missed. It would be redeemed if the dialogue were classic Tarantino, but it's not. It would be redeemed if the acting were especially naturalistic, but it's not.
