The ultimate "hell-on-wheels" spectacular! "Death Proof" packs on the action, suspense, & humor we've come to expect in a Tarentino movie. It's badass on the Nth degree.
Gritty, badass, head on Quentin Tarantino. You know its good depending how long Tarantino is in front of the camera. In this he serves the drinks. Its rated R, 18, for a reason.
Okay, first of all, I was pissed that we didn't get the double feature together with Planet Terror here in Germany. But hey, it's a Tarantino, it had to be watched anyway. And surprise, the longer version of the movie works very well on its own. Tarantino wrote his best dialogues...( read more)
Kurt Russell makes Death Proof. All the girls are gorgeous, and they do wonders with Tarantino's dialogue, but Kurt is still the star of the show. He goes from charming to murderous to a huge pansy throughout the course of the movie, and he's excellent at each and every one of th...( read more)
I haven't seen the beginning of the movie, but after just a few scenes I told to myself this must be a Tarantino movie! and... it was! Well, I'm not a huge fan of his work, but this one amused me quite good! Beautiful girls, fast cars, a lot of car crash - a man's dream movie heh...( read more)

It's not junk, it's a masterpiece. No Tarantino fan would call it junk. I loved it and can watch it repeatedly. The dialouge is sharp, witty and the chase scene breathtaking. The only thing I dont like is Zoe Bell, annoying as hell.

Nice to see a challenger kick ass. Love the car chase till the end. And rosario's betty hairstyle was hot!! And don't get me started on the music!!
n awesome homage to '70's car chase films and so much more. An exploitation flick about an insane serial killer, Stuntman Mike, who kills women with his souped-up Dodge, stunt car. I absolutely loved this film. Intriguing characters, and awesome Tarantino diaologue are two of the many things that set this film apart from other violent action flicks. Wonderful touches such as grainy images and jump cutting make the viewer feel like they're actually watching a film at the drive-in circa 1970. The climactic car chase at the end is not to be missed!
Ok - The grindhouse concept is cool, and it worked out ok for Planet Terror which I thought was entertaining. I ddin't think the same of this one. What is the use of making a film look old when it plays in modern times? The "old" theme was used throughout the film by means of old neon-lit bars with jukeboxes and old cars, but if you also see modern cars and cellphones, it kind of kills the effect. I am a great fan of dialogue in a film, but it must be meaningful. The dialogue was long, boring an tireing. The ending car-chase was long and the end of the movie was just absurdly abrupt. Tarantino may have produced oscar-winning titles, this stuff is, in my eyes, absolute junk.
It takes at least 35-40 mins for someone to die in this film.I did like the concept for Death Proof & Kurt Russell performance but the film needed more action not unnecessary dialog that takes forever & becomes boring.
