Do I call Lucy Liu's head flying in the air beautiful? No. I call it a humorous take on the genre, a nice juxtaposition with what took place before. Read my earlier post. This movie was clearly made with tongue in cheek. That scene was made to be funny in it's own wicked way. That is the point. Begin with a beautiful scene, dark, sparkling snow in a garden, the light hitting snow and garden perfectly, creating an air of tranquility and peace. Then enter the violence. That scene was in the film for it's own sake. Notice how it never snowed anywhere else in the movie? Why only there? Because it had to snow for the scene to work. The beauty of that scene gave the scalping more impact. And it worked. You either appreciated it or you did not. Have you seen that type of scene before? Probably not.This is the same reason why different people think different jokes are funny. For the same reason that someone did not get a joke does not make the joke bad, and merely because you did not appreciate Kill Bill does not make it bad. With an "R" after your moniker, I assume you appreciate the opinions of reviewers. Well, more than eight of ten reviewers thought Vol. I was a good film. Or are reviewer's opinions not worth the ink? Present company excluded, naturally.
