    very good movie. i thought planet terror was much better than death proof,but both were good. the previews to coming attractions were hilarious.

    Is that the movie with the chainsaw leg girl? "very good" is not anything I'd expect to be said about it. A review means someone actually saw it, and that's sad enough.

    Why would you even judge a movie without seeing it?

    Because some things you can't possibly see and think "Oh, that looks good". A girl with a machine gun on her leg in a SERIOUS film is one of them. Add the name Tarantino, and it's the perfect set up for pure hot steamy garbage.
    This is the equivalent to a movie (serious movie. Witha dramatic story-line and all)with a Cat that break-dances on stilts. Would you see that one too, or just initially write it off as crap?

    A girl has a machine gun on her leg. And she actually walks on it. Shoots it. Aims it. In a serious action movie. Really. How they can even market this junk shows the average American's intellect.

    but that's the great thing about it, it's not supposed to be a serious movie. it is an homage to the crappy B double feature movies that inspired tarantino and rodriguez when they were young.

    As long as it isn't meant to be taken seriously, it might be ok. Though I still hate Tarantino, and feel he's the most overrated man in hollywood.

    Lots of folks saying it's good, and it's a movie I think I'd like. Well if "the gloat" already knows it sucks, then I'd almost bet I'd like it.

    you'll probably hate the tarantino half of the movie, but you might like the rodriguez one. of course, the rodriguez half was planet terror, with the gun-leg, so who knows?
