Tarantino did not make this film for the average film goer whose film experience does not include Asian martial arts films. Tarantino loves the martial arts genre, and Kill Bill Vol. I (which I have seen)and Vol. II (which I have not) are homages to that genre, with tongue firmly planted in cheek. Unless you are, at minimum, familiar with that genre, and more particularly a fan of that genre, then it's attributes will be missed. And the scene with Lucy Liu and Uma Thurman in the garden with the snow falling is absolutely beautiful.
