Grindhouse: Deathproof - Trailer 3.5 car chases out of 5 Typical Quentin Tarantino movie I guess? This hour and a half movie is strangely broken up into two 45-minute short stories. I don't really think these two stories are really fully independent from each other nor are they dependent...not sure what the whole point of it was. Perhaps if I spent $100,000 to learn theatre at a liberal arts school I would know. Whatever the case, pretty entertaining movie. Vanessa Ferlito is one of the leads in the first half, and I definitely like her work...she fits that tough but not too tough girl who was originally from the city but now lives in the suburbs with you but still tries to hang onto her city roots. We've all known one. She's in it, and does an amazing dialogue with Kurt Russel, and does a bang up job, check it out. This movie has the best, and I mean BEST car crash you may ever see "on the big screen". A must see. This crash rivals the scene in "Vary Bad Things" when Marv from home alone gets completely obliterated and sandwiched in between a 10 passenger van and a BMW. Also a MUST SEE. Small but yet cheesy cameo by Eli Roth. Tarantino lowered the quality of his movie because of some backroom favor to the guy probably, not interested. Props as always though has to be given to Tarantino who lets you into each character's psyche and way of thinking just from simple but strategic conversations. A brilliant piece of directing in my opinion. Think opening scene of reservoir dogs type stuff. Go see this movie. You'll think it's weird at times, but worth it. -Gerard
