Kill Bill 20 Years Later... It Did Not Age Well... | Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair

About this episode

The episode discusses the flaws in 'Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair' and how it reflects Quentin Tarantino's decline in originality.

Kill Bill held a special place in a lot of hearts. The Whole Bloody Affair was supposed to be the definitive version: Tarantino's original vision restored as a single four-and-a-half-hour film. Richard Lewis, Thorin, and MonteCristo sat through all of it, and what they found was the precise moment Quentin Tarantino disappeared up his own references. Everything that made Reservoir Dogs and Pulp Fiction brilliant, such as the compelling dialogue, the clever homage, the subversion of genre, is replaced here by wholesale theft from better movies that the audience can now watch for free on YouTube.
