The problem I have with the movie is that Tarantino has to indulge us with his pop culture dialogue instead of what I assume most of us paid to see car chases and ultraviolence. It makes me wonder if he gets the whole grindhouse genre. I fear he doesn't. Rodriguez certainly did--<I>Planet Terror</I> could have come straight from the Seventies.Terence Towles Canotehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18397088843628331615noreply@blogger.com
