This was a great idea for a movie. I love the feel, the mock previews and the double feature. Planet Terror lives up to the billing and is bad in a great way (Just like you`d want from B movie). However, Death Proof is just plain boring. Not much happens from start to finish. It`s as though Tarantino needed to add time to his film and added mundane banter between the characters to fill it out. Unfortunately,(unlike his other films) the chatter is boring. Death Proof would have been way better without it. Imagine a first year film student trying to mimic Tarantino`s style is what these long conversation sequences are like. Probably the
How did more people see Wild Hogs than Grind House last weekend??? This is the best movie experience I have had in several years, GO SEE THIS DOUBLE FEATURE!!!
Fantastic! Go see it! BUT...you have to know what you are going in to see. Definately go see it! In the BIG theatre with a ton of freinds!
Was a waste of money ! Many people walked out during the movie, and several booed at the end it was that bad.. Not only did it drag on, but it never got exciting. Must admit some parts were good, but if anything-- wait until its out on video.
what a great concept bringing back the grindhouse effect this was great i am sad to see not alot of the youth will catch on, most of them dont know what a grind house is. its really great i hope this movie catches on with more people its great we need more ideas like this if they want to stop downloaders.
i recommend you see it before they decide to split them into two specific movies. this movie was meant to be seen as a homage to grindhouse theatres and you can only respect that if you sit your bum through the whole 3 hours of it. planet terror was amazing, death proof not so much. i find it ironic that the pseudo A-list actors are in the worse movie... nonetheless, a milestone in movie history, and this homage should not be missed. GO WATCH IT! p.s rose mcgowan is by far the best looking amputee ever.
PLANET TERROR was disappointing. It was too self-aware, and felt like a spoof at times. It was fun, but wasn`t really a "grindhouse" movie (budget seemed way too big and they used CGI, too much CGI). DEATH PROOF was great, though. The dialogue was funny, caught the spirit of those exploitation films, and had some excellent stunts. Kurt Russell was also good. The trailers in between were also very good (if they actually made those movies, I might go see them - Nicolas Cage as Fu Manchu!? Sweet!)
This double feature kicked some major butt. It was gross, scary & freakin` hilarious all at the same time. It was also nice to see Michael Biehn back on the big screen again.
Both films were clever and smart. Don`t turn your head at the violence, everything beneath is pure brilliance. I have never had that much fun at the movie theatre. The entire audience was laughing and clapping. It was a Rush. And props to Zoe Bell for being the hottest most bad ass chick on the planet.
AMAZING!!!! Both movies do not disappoint. Those of you who didn`t like Deathproof, don`t completely understand the genius of Quentin Tarantino! GO SEE IT!!!!
