not only the worst movie of Tarantino but the worst ever


i really shocked when i see that movie, the only good scene was the lab dance(nce choice of song) i'm so dissappointed :P

reply

I thought anything involving Kurt was good, he just chewed the scenery. Everything else was generic 'sassy' girls spewing Tarantino dialogue that was almost a parody of Tarantino dialogue.

I'll score you as another person who failed to understand this film. Oh, well...

reply

haha :) well i really didn't understand it so you are right, so what was the point that i missed?

reply

'If you don't like something you clearly don't understand it man.'

The mating call of the moron.


reply

Evidently, you're not very intelligent. The OP admitted to not understanding the film. Duh!

reply

Oh please, its hardly 2001 or Beyond The Black Rainbow. There is nothing ambiguous about it at all. Its just a poor film by a usually good director.

reply

Even QT admitted it was his worst film. But hey, a trollers gotta troll.

reply

I noticed you failed to provide proof to support your claim. You did get one thing right, "a trollers gotta troll." And you're the troll...

Grow up.

"Quentin Tarantino has surely made a lot of very good movies, but which one of them does he find the least impressive?

"'Death Proof' has got to be the worst movie I ever [made]," Tarantino recently told The Hollywood Reporter. "And for a left-handed movie, that wasn't so bad, all right? -- so if that's the worst I ever get, I'm good. But I do think one of those out-of-touch, old, limp, flaccid-dick movies costs you three good movies as far as your rating is concerned."


You're running your mouth all over these boards but for such a fan of Tarantino and DP you sure seem pretty ignorant about its critical reception.

reply

No, dummy, I read that before. So what? That proves absolutely...nothing.

reply

Lol. OK buddy. You were the one asking for proof that Tarantino said it was his worst film.

I posted a link to an article where Tarantino is quoted saying DP is his worst film.......which proves........say it with me........ that Tarantino said DP is his worst film.

Why you would ask for someone to prove Tarantino said that it was his worst film ..........if you were already aware he said it was his worst film (and we both know you're lying, you didn't know he said that) ......is something you might want to ask yourself.

You seem to have serious anger issues. You might want to see a doctor about that.

Don't bother replying, I'm not wasting any more time on you.

He gave you proof you then disappeared after being proven wrong like the retard you are

reply

He gave you proof


What he posted means absolutely...nothing.

you then disappeared after being proven wrong like the retard you are


One who lacks the intelligence needed to comprehend how to quote correctly shouldn't call anyone else a "retard."

reply

Try not to be so sensitive.
The film itself was weak and I'd have to agree with Tarantino because it certainly is his worst film.

It was shallow and offered very little to digest. Even the symbolism and implications in the film were far below-average.

reply

I'm watching it at the moment and asking myself...is the acting supposed to be bad because it's a tribute to grind=house cinema? Not being facetious, I'm genuinely curious as to if this is the desired effect Taranteeny was going for.

"Hot lesbian witches!"

reply

Idea: How about you actually watch the movie instead of posting on message boards

reply

I DID watch the whole movie....and I wasn't being facetious, I genuinely wanna know if the acting was purposely....rubbish.

"Hot lesbian witches!"

reply

What's hard to understand about the film? It's not exactly a David Lynch film... it's simply a straight forward, not very good film. The only reason you like it is because Tarantino made it. If it wasn't made by film you wouldn't care for it at all.

reply

I understood Death Proof PERFECTLY.

It was slow as a wet weekend, lacked any interesting characters, any kind of story, anything even remotely interesting.

People sitting around talking and drinking isn't a film.

Now comes the part where you say 'but it was SUPPOSED to be bad'. Well, it certainly was. It may have been an homage to the old exploitation films of AIP and the like, but many of those film actually had stories that went somewhere. Death Proof just had a whole lotta nothing.

I agree with the OP i just watched the film for the first time and it was very poor.

reply

Should've been called "Annoying Girls Chattin'"

reply

Watched it last night for the first time.
Loved it.
Different strokes for different blokes.

No cash here!! Here, no cash!!! Cash, no!!!! Robbo? No Cash!

reply

No, it was pretty terrible. Tarantino always has scenes with pointless dialog that has nothing to do with the story but usually it's entertaining, this was just annoying. Or maybe that was the point and we're supposed to root for Stuntman Mike.

reply

It's the type of film that is rated "excellent because Tarantino did it"


That's all it is, film "fans" who think that Quentin Tarantino is the be all and end all of cinema. It should be a 5 on the IMDB rating scale.

reply

I dislike Tarantino in general and loved this film. Rated it a 9.
It felt like a 70s film which is amazing. Even the acting felt like it was from the 70s. There's something magical about this film.

reply

I always thought the first 30 minutes or so were impressive, but it just falls apart after that.

Anyway, while it's not the worst movie ever, it is probably the most obnoxious thanks to those incredibly annoying bitches.




Hey there, Johnny Boy, I hope you fry!

reply

One load of typically foul mouthed Tarantino garbage. I can't believe I allowed myself to waste almost two hours of my life watching this utter dross.

reply

Nice use of "dross," friend.

reply

agreed,this movie just sucked!
