Badass martial arts to gory battles, in this review I will be talking about the fourth movie produced by Quentin Tarantino “Kill Bill Volume 1”.ll
Bill Vol. 1 is a 2003 American Martial Arts movies which is written and
directed by king of action and gore Quentin Tarantino who was most notable to
have written directed and even star in his previous movie “Pulp Fiction” (Pulp
Fiction Review - http://lukesyderasmedia.blogspot.co.uk/2015/11/g321-thriller-research-pulp-fiction.html)
The
movie is about a woman (played by Uma Thurman – Who last appeared in Pulp
Fiction as “Mia”) as she seeks revenge on her cold blooded assassination squad
led by Bill (Played by David Carradine) after they attempted to murder her
during her wedding and in the process killing her unborn baby.
Similar
to Pulp Fiction, the movie uses many professional and creative shots during the
production, the constant change from colour to black and white filters brings
out the personality and drama of each character and event, the most famous
scene in the film being the fight against the crazy 88 with the black and white
filter, the music played and the filter brings out a western and Chinese martial
art movie tone.
Kill
Bill Vol. 1 uses the elements of a thriller movie (like dangerous locations, a
realistic setting which comes through events and locations, cramped locations
such as Vernita Green’s house at the beginning of the movie, rooms and boot of
vehicles).
Kill
Bill Vol. 1 uses excessive gore and violent and is even more graphic than Pulp
Fiction you think that was bad just wait until you watch Kill Bill there is
literally blood spraying everywhere and limbs being taken away from the victims
but I don’t want to go in greater detail unless you want your breakfast, lunch
and dinner to come out.
Overall
the movie is a must see as it contains a memorable cast, effective filters and
gripping plots.

When you upload a review of a film could you add a couple of specific example (screen shots) of how Tarantino uses elements of the thriller genre in this film. For example you say "cramped locations", please give an example.
