The Bride vs O-ren is my favorite scene of "modern" cinema. The respect they show knowing the duel is nearing the end is so well done.

8:35 - Tarantino actually confirmed that this guy, who killed O-Ren's dad and burned her house, was Bill himself. Also, the yellow suit, which The Bride wore during the battle against O-ren and her people, was a actually a reference to Bruce Lee's "Game of death" movie.

Feudal, not futile. Futile means "without purpose". Feudal is the definition of an economic/legal system, where peasants trade their labor to an overlord for using the land they live on.

The sushi bar scene with Hatori Hanzo, we get clued in that The Bride speaks Japanese when we see she tries to keep from laughing while Hatori and the assistant are arguing, she understands the whole argument. Oren says The Bride won’t last five minutes fighting her: the duel goes 4:59. Some of the overseas cuts of the movie show Sophie Fatale with both her arms chopped off, the usually missed “give me your arm” line after The Bride warns Sophie that other parts of her body will be cut off if she does not provide answers.

Yeah, really showing some of our ages when we recognized the voice right off.

When Uma and Quintin were filming “Pulp Fiction”, they would sit around and talk about the early’70s spaghetti Kung Fu movies and how he always wanted to make one. Uma would say, “Oh! Wouldn’t it be cool if she did this”, and he would say, “Oh, yeah! And wouldn’t it great if this happens,” and that’s how this film came into being. They would brainstorm for hours. They were thinking of a name for the film and Uma said, “Let’s just call it ‘The Bride’.” That’s why you never hear her name. They got to do everything they’ve always wanted to do, plus some. For how violent as this film is, Uma was raised by her parents in the Buddhist religion. If you like Tarantino’s “Four Rooms”. The funniest movie ever made!! GREAT REACTIONS!!

Love the whole fight sequence when it goes black and white when she plucks that dudes eyeball out, then blinks the color back into the movie. So good

Little details that add so much flavor! The black and white in this movie looked so good!

So, since you talked about the music...one great choice of music was using the song "Flower of Carnage" during the duel between Uma Thurman and Lucy Liu. The song comes from the Japanese 1973 film "Lady Snowblood" - the story of a young woman who was literally born for the purpose of seeking revenge against the criminals who killed her parents. And the song is sung by Meiko Kaji, the star of "Lady Snowblood". It is one of the many, many films that inspired the Kill Bill movies, and setting the duel in the snow and using that music is a direct reference.

To this day, this is still my favorite Tarantino film. During your reaction, you hit on several things that makes this movie hold up and enjoyable to watch and it's the cinematography, over-the-top style, and use of music. In this movie more so than most that I've watched, the music feels like a character. Totally agree about Uma Thurman. She should have been nominated for a Best Actress Oscar for this movie. The best lead performance out of all of Tarantino's movies, in my opinion.

Hey Bowi! We’re super excited to share it with you guys. Thank you for the support! 😃

So Kill Bill was originally filmed as ONE movie. Unfortunately after editing, it ran about 5 hours in length. Since Tarantino didn't want to cut any of the film, he chose to break it into 2 separate films. This is why you have a few "flash forwards" at the end of this movie (you will see them in part 2). Part 1 has most of the action whereas Part 2 has incredible storytelling, character development, and dialog (something Tarantino is known for). This is why I personally liked part 2 better - it was simply a better movie overall. Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one who recognizes the "Wilhelm scream". 🙂

@@caseymoe816 WOW! I really hope that's not just a rumor. What an epic film that will make.

As much as you are seeing other movies drawing from this, understand that this is a conscious mash-up/collage of everything Quenting loves, there's literally nothing new here except the arrangement. Every shot, every detail, every stylistic choice, all those "meticulous decisions" you're seeing are references to other movies, shows or pop culture that Quentin loves. (The Bride's yellow motorcycle leathers are a direct reference to Bruce Lee's iconic "superhero costume" from "Game of Death" (1978) and the music playing during her motorcycle ride is the jazz version of "Flight of The Bumblebee" which was used as the theme music for Bruce Lee's TV series "The Green Hornet") He's not shy about this, he'll tell you each and every single thing he's borrowing/referencing/stealing and gush endlessly about why he loves them so much. Poke around KZread you can probably find interviews or supplemental materials from the DVD release of Quentin citing every movie and show he's referencing and how they inspired and influenced this film. Kill Bill is obviously a "martial arts movie" but there are several sub-categories of that and these movies cycle through them, giving each scene a distinctive feel. When she fights Vivica Fox in the first scene it's "Wu Da Pian;" contemporary action movies with a focus on fairly realistic, grounded martial arts scenes, the genre Jackie Chan pioneered in the 80's with movies like "Police Story" and "Operation Condor." There's an anime flashback because of course that would be the style in which to tell the story of Lucy Liu's rise to power. The showdown at the karaoke bar is in the style of Japanese samurai and ninja movies. The second movie will be more of a traditional "Wu-Jia Pian" - fantasy wire-kung fu movie like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" or "Hero". But the the tone, the music, and the storytelling are a Spaghetti Western like Sergio Leone's "A Fistful of Dollars"(1964) or "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" (1966), and to a lesser degree, the Italian "woman's revenge" genre of thrillers like Meir Zarchi's "I Spit On Your Grave"(1978) in which a wronged woman, usually a gang-rape victim, systematically hunts down her assailants and dispatches them with satisfyingly cruel methods. "This walked so John Wick could run" John Wick is the latest evolution in genre that's at least 60 years old and spans multiple nations and film industries in various countries, with a rich history of so many iconic, influential movies that a must-see list can't be narrowed down to a top 25 or even 50. John Wick owes much to John Woo's "The Killer" (Hong Kong 1989) which in turn is the Chinese take of Jean Pierre Mellville's "Le Samourai." (France 1967). The motorcycles-and-sword chase was a direct lift from Jung Gyung-Bil's "The Villainess" (Korea 2017). Kill Bill's fight choreographer Yuen Woo-Ping's first American movie was "The Matrix"(1999) which also drew heavily from wu-jia and John Woo's signature "gun-fu" style, as well as anime, and was where "John Wick" director Chad Stahelski learned his chops as Keanu's stunt double.

Absolutely agree! In fact it’s very rare to find anything absolutely original at all. But like you said it’s all in the arrangement. All artist are inspired by other art. But not all know how to blend all the different things they love and make it work. Truly impressive! To add some context to my John Wick comment. From a cinematography stand point there’s a shot from over the top that is very reminiscent to its use in the recent John Wick film (if you’ve seen it, then you know which scene im referring to) as well as the bike sequence with the samurai. Just thought it was extremely similar yet they went in complete different directions which is awesome to see. Thank you for sharing some knowledge on cinema history 😄

There is another version of the movie, made for the asian market where the fight against the crazy 88 gang is in full colour and longer! And poor Sofie loses her other arm as well

Loved your reaction. You absolutely have to watch Vol. 2. I saw this in the movie theater when it came out and for only the second time in my life, I heard an audience applaud with enthusiasm at the end of the film. ( The only other time I heard an audience applaud like that was at the end of Star Wars at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood in 1977 ). Tarantino grew up on 70s exploitation, kung fu and samurai films and the late 60s/70s touches from tv shows and pop culture just sent my old nerd heart to beating wildly.

I just found your channel, and so far your reactions and commentary are great! I do love me some Kill Bill. I was a teen when Tarantino burst onto the scene, and I was an instant fan. If you have not watched “True Romance” or “Natural Born Killers” I recommend you do at some point. They are both Tarantino works, and NOT Tarantino works at the same time. He sold 2 of his earliest screenplays in order to primarily help fund the production of “Reservoir Dogs” his first feature film, another great one to watch if you haven’t seen it. Those screenplays were then made into the first 2 movies I suggested above. It is interesting to watch Tarantino’s story and dialogue be handled by a different director. One of the movies you can tell 100% is a Tarantino story and the other one not so much, at least in my opinion. I won’t say which is which, it would be interesting to see if you guys agree with me or not and get your thoughts in general about two of my favorite movies.

i totally agree with you two regarding the music! i love both soundtracks to kill bill. and from alot of his other films. it absolutely fits every scene, i love the music when she goes into the place and sees oren and they look at each other. that old piece of music is sosoo beautiful there. the girl band that played the 5 6 7 8 ; the whoo hoo song was really popular for geico years ago i think it was on tv. tarantino while in japan heard the song in a shop and asked who they were and got them for the movie.

Great reaction! I saw a funny Tarrentino interview and he was talking about how Kung Fu Panda has alot of references and parodies of Kill Bill. 😆

You two are Fantastic!

Tarantino loves cult films, especially 60's-70's Japanese 'Pinky Violence' gangster revenge films and 60's-70's Spaghetti Westerns which also have epic revenge themes, Westerns with Italian directors, filmed in Spain with mostly Italian and Spaniard actors with a few Americans, Germans, French and other Euros. Some of the soundtrack songs on Kill Bill 1 & 2 are from those Japanese cult films and Spaghetti Westerns. I have a ton of both those genre films. The revenge in some is epic. They're part fairytale, part gritty, with brutal violence and often sociopathic/psychopathic characters.

They left us on such a cliffhanger, everyone walked out in shock, awe, and huge smiles. We knew we had watched and experienced yet another Tarantino masterpiece. The only good part of the whole waiting game I remember thinking was that since Tarantino had shot it as one whole film, we would not have to wait years for the resolution.

I know this is a year old, but I've recently discovered your channel and have been binge watching a lot of it. I don't know if this is really inspired by anime, but if you have seen anime, you can actually visualize almost every scene as an anime scene or even a manga panel. If you haven't venture into the world of anime, try asking your Patreon for recommendations, I have a feeling you will love the experience and the liberty of the animated medium brings. Love the channel, keep it up. 💖

Fun fact: the only reason why Quentin decided to make the Crazy 88s fight black and white is to avoid an NC-17 rating. And even then, he had to cut some shots and moments down to keep that R rating.

One if not THE best action films ever. Seen this in the theater on opening night in North Carolina and the house was packed with excited people oohing and aahing. NO one like Tarantino in the director's chair! Stunning!

Fucking hell, was watching this and thought "man I need to fire up sifu when I get in" then you dropped the sifu line 🤟

I’m sure you guys have watched at least two of these but if not then I hope you guys eventually react to some of these amazing films: Inception, Interstellar, There Will Be Blood, The Exorcist, Whiplash, The Martian, Blade Runner 2049, Dune, Sicario, Arrival, The Prestige and Shutter Island. And if you are looking for tv shows then Barry, the final seasons first two episodes releases tonight and Severance, two recent masterpieces.

Thank you for the suggestions! We’ve watched a few of those! Some of the ones we’ve yet to watch is The Prestige, Blade Runner 2049, Sicario and Arrival. The rest we’ve watched a couple of times haha and we are game to watch some Barry as well!

22:15 Love how it transition to black and white! Pure gold!

Even if you all have seen pulp fiction and inglorious basterds, I would very much like to watch you all react to it. Great reaction, thank you

Oh goodness, yes, they're actually on our list for sure!! Thank you so much for your support, we appreciate your kind words!

epic masterpiece my fave Tarantino movie, and one of my faves of all time. its an interesting point you made so many movies copied this film so when ppl watch it today it doesn't feel new any more, but back when this movie came out it was legendary

I had to watch this in the theater then go to dinner with no smart phone pissed I had to wait for Part 2!!! That was a proper cliff hanger for sure.

As always love your reaction. I don't watch much TV these days but your thumbnail pops up. I'm like AWSUM. Something to watch! But today something extra.....you mentioned SIFU. absolutely love the game. Not many I know even know about it. Problem is my characters about 60yrs old and I'm only at the third location.. haha. I gotta restart and get better at Kung Fu.

Awwww duude thank you!!! It always means so much to us to see you comment and support us consistently, you have no idea! SIFU is an amazing game but it's hella tough!! It's just a bit of practice but we have faith in you, you can do it!!!

I like your videos. Time to binge watch EVERY SINGLE ONE 🤣. Nah I'll just watch the ones I like. Kill bill certainly falls into that category 😋

23:59 Yeah, that’s the last “leg” of the fight. LOL 😆

Adding to my last post, the spurting blood and violence comes from the cult Japanese Pinky Violence films of the 60's-70's.

Just found your channel and have fallen in love with you guys immediately! Keep up the great work and I look forward to more videos! Not sure how many movies you have seen from Christopher Nolan but all of his are great ones to react to!

Ohhh dude thank you so much for that!! We appreciate your kind words so much! Sadly, we did watch a majority of Nolan movies, but we may get into some rewatches for those if there is interest!

If you ever take a trip to Japan, the restaurant that they modeled the Crazy 88/ O ren fight location from is in the Roppongi area of Tokyo and is called Gonpachi. There is a sushi restaurant upstairs and a bar/ grill restaurant on the ground floor where they have everything from pizza to soba and yakitori. The scene was shot on a sound stage in China but Tarantino had visited Gonpachi on a trip to Japan (it may have been a location scouting trip for this movie) and liked the look so much he made his own version for the movie. I got to eat there earlier this year and even though it was busy, it was worth the wait time. They play O ren's intro theme "The House Of Blue Leaves" over the PA system when one of the guests has a birthday and they bring out a piece of cake for them. They didn't have the roof access open so I can't confirm if they have a garden on the roof like you see in the film or not but my bet would be that they don't. The band playing in the scene is a real Rockabilly group from Japan called the 5-6-7-8's . Tarantino heard them playing when he was in a shop in Tokyo just before jumping on a plane back to the states and asked the shop owner if he could buy the CD so that he could hear more of their music and also be sure to remember their band name so that he could contact them for the film. Apparently, the CD wasn't for sale at the store but the cashier was nice enough to sell him their own personal copy that had been playing in the store.

So many subtle things I love about the part of this that took place in Japan! 1. O-ren's Kimono: It’s white, which is the color of death in Japan 2. When the Bride calls O-ren out, she does it in Chinese. SO disrespectful given O-ren's role as the top yakuza dog. And it speaks to the depth of the relationship between the two (and the depth of betrayal), that the Bride would know to call her out in that way. Soooooo good.

Fun fact: the bald sword master with the dual wield bamboo swords, is the real life father of the guy who plays Zoro in One Piece Live 😊

I always thought Bill pulled his shot when The Bride says "it's your ba . . .", and that's why she survived. She claws her way back from just a thread of life.

Funny how no one mentions that everyone who got a limb or head cut off has high blood pressure...

They didn‘t know what a masterpiece they had, in this movie but as it ages it becomes clear.

It's wasn't quite the 3 years it took to find out if Vader was lying, but it was up there.

Bill is in the anime section when Oren's parents are killed. He kicks the cigar butt to light the place on fire.

That sweet yellow outfit wore during this. Was a tribute to the outfit Bruce Lee wore in one his movies. Only difference is Bruce outfit was a one piece basically and uma's is a teo piece. Still total badass!!

Great reaction

Everything in this movie is absolutly perfect. The cast, the over-the-top dialogue, the cinematography, the tension builds, the music, the twists, the sound effects, the silence. It really is a masterpiece. The second one is just as good, but a different style of movie.

The Red Violin 🎻 a great movie of a perfectly made violin and it's affects on people through time.

Thank you for the suggestion! We’ll look into it 😃

I’m officially a fan!!

One of my favorite movies. I saw it in the theater. There are so many subtle things brilliantly written into the movie that are easily overlooked. For example in the anime flashback telling of the death of O-Ren’s parents it is actually Bill that kills them. (The man is wearing Bill’s ring and has his sword) Since young O-Ren was under the bed she didn’t see his face. So O-Ren unknowingly grew up to work for the man who killed her parents.

Can't wait for the next one.

Thanks for watching with us!

This movie never gets old, I swear. So sooo good.

I had such a crush on O-Ren. She's my favorite character. And the Bride in her yellow Bruce Lee is SO COOL. The band playing is The 5 6 7 8's. :)

Lucy Liu...One of the BEST University of Michigan Graduates EVER!

I'm gald you guys liked it! i was fortunate to get to see this in the theater in college. the theater was dead! i was just in awe; and i love Tarantino! If you get the chance watch the making of it.

I enjoyed both of these.

that whistle song at the beginning with Elle Driver is my cell phone ringer and its been my ringer since the movie came out. fun fact: the RZAfrom WU tang Clan did the soundtrack
