Released in theaters as part of a double-feautre titled Grindhouse, this Quentin Tarantino film has been expanded by 30 minutes and given the solo treatment on DVD. The extra footage is unnecessary, and basically amounts to more scenes of people talking... and talking... and talking. Yes, Tarantino is a great writer of dialogue, but he's not at his best here. More so than any QT film, this thing is absent a single recognizable human emotion. It's all about the style. And stylish it certainly is — but Tarantino needs to grow up and stop reimagining B-movie schlock if he wants to regain his status as one of America's finest filmmakers.
