Los Angeles Times (Dennis Lim)
A two-headed monster from fanboy kings Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez, "Grindhouse" is a full-blooded attempt to summon up a bygone age of cinematic sleaze. Or, to put it more cynically, it's an exploitation bonanza in which the most effectively ...read the complete Grindhouse movie review at Los Angeles Times (Dennis Lim)
The Cranky Critic (Chuck Schwartz)
Nah, not garbage in the "it stinks" sense. Garbage, in this case, also means movies done on the cheap; long on effects and short on stories and actors with ability. Just the kind that filled theaters that Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez filled as ...read the complete Grindhouse movie review at The Cranky Critic (Chuck Schwartz)

The only reason this didn't get a 4 star was because of the crappy movie named "Death Proof" that was attached to it. Planet Terror was a great zombie movie, especially for the comedy it provided and awesome cameos that took place. Death ...

Quentin Tarantino seems to have a thing for old movies, and it makes for some cool and original movies nowadays.
Both Planet Terror and Death Proof wreak of generic horror cliches, but it's fun.
Although everybody hates Death Proof because ...

I recently watched this film and it has left me with such regret I didn't follow my gut and go see it at the movies. Since "Kill Bill" I fell in love with QT and his style of film making, and that alone would have convinced me to sit for 3 hours to ...

I warn of the violence that might come a bit unexpected when the first kills ...

If you are a Tarantino fan then you are in for a treat and if you are not well then this movie will make you one!
The story-line is not particularly new per say but there is something in the way Tarantino tells a story that gets you hooked. The ...

Although the beginning is a bit slow the whole movie is a masterpiece, fans of the genre and/or the director will be delighted with this movie. In my opinion the best of ...

Yeah yeah, there is a lot of talking and there is also a lot of talking. This is a Tarantino movie, and his characters love to talk. But if you didn't spend the time hanging out with the girls of Death Proof, then you wouldn't give two s***s about them ...
