on making the perfect hamburger. Think of it like this.
We disagree, again, on the motivation. Jeesh, the guy killed her husband (I don't remember exactly if the ceremony concluded?), shot her in the head, and (she thought) killed the fetus within her: that's THIN justification for revenge? Wow, what more do you want?
Regarding Uma's trailer technique: You're forgetting what she went through, right? Shot in the chest with a shotgun, beaten and buried, walking God knows how many miles. YOU try jumping around after that. Besides, she DID engage in a bit of the flying kicks.
Anyhow, I actually thought the second was a more powerful film, with more story and less "wow, look at that" stuff.
Still, I'll re-visit KBI just to be thrilled again and re-assess my opinion. These films pass my test of excellence: WITHIN their genre, they're great, and they're complex and interesting enough to stand up to multiple viewings.
