4.0 out of 5 stars Let's put a few things straight, 24 Sep 2007
If you're reading this you probably know that Deathproof was originally released as part of Grindhouse, which pays homage to some of the less well made cultish films of yesteryear. Deathproof was made and cut into a much shorter version, to be released with the other feature "Planet Terror" as part of one film eancapsulating the "Grindhouse experience". This however is substantially longer, and was filmed and written as a full length feature. This means that the film isn't longer because they put all the crap they cut out back in, more that the Grindhouse version had to cut lots of things out.

Now if you complain about this film having too much dialogue, then you can't have seen many Tarantino films before. His films are all about the dialogue! Tarantino dialogue doesn't appeal to everyone, even I cringe on occasion, but his dialogue and storytelling style is largely about people being cool rather than being entirely beleivable. It's all about colourfull characters, in unusual situations.

Now the film isn't perfect and i'm not going to stick up for it's flaws. Clearly the action scenes are what makes this film memorable, particularly as the Kiwi actress Zoe Bell (playing a character called Zoe who is a Kiwi) actually did those stunts for real, no harnesses etc.

Just because there isn't action all the way through doesn't matter. You wouldn't say jaws was a bad film just because the shark wasn't there the whole time. When stuntman Mike appears, things happen.

This film is great, but I admit not Tarantinos best. However, I really enjoyed it. Turn your mind off, watch the girls in skimpy clothes deliver dry witty diaglogue, then squirm in your seat as the inevitable happens and cheer at the end.

2.0 out of 5 stars Change the record!, 22 Oct 2007
By J. J. Osborn (st saviour, jersey Great Britain) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
God awful - this is more like a Tarantino knock-off than one of his actual films.

Full of the usual laboured references designed to appeal to nerds who like to recite film dialogue (rants about Dave, Dee, Dozey, Mitch and Titch, and Italian Vogue are particularly tiresome) and dull 70s music.

To make matters worse, the fake trailers (one of the main draws of Grindhouse) aren't included on the DVD!

If you've seen this first, and are two minds about bothering with Planet Terror, please don't be put off. Planet Terror is absolutely awesome!

3.0 out of 5 stars Death Proof? the box office says differnt..., 21 Jan 2008
By Luke Brown "wonderin badger" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
i was pretty excited about seeing this film but when i finally saw it the otherday i was disapointed. i thought it would be a fast paced, slick and super stylistic piece of cinema candy. instead i was treated to endless and mindless bable and not nearly enough cool car chases. when they happen they are awsome so i recomend just jumping to them scenes.
