Grindhouse is the best time you'll have at the movies all year - guaranteed! It was amazing; I laughed and applauded through the whole thing. It was 3 hours long - you get your money's worth with this movie. I'm ready to see it again, but I'm waiting. They are talking about re-releasing it as two separate movies. If they do that, I am so there.
I think I liked Planet Terror best - that's the Robert Rodriguez zombie movie first half. It was a sick movie, and I mean that literally and figuratively. Freddy Rodriguez, Naveen Andrews, and Rose McGowan rocked the S out of this movie. It was definitely gross, but in an over-the-top, funny way. It was truly hysterical. The fake movie trailers were also hysterical and sick.
Death Proof was true Quentin Tarantino, which is to say a tad wordy and self-indulgent. I didn't think it really fit in with the Grindhouse theme at first, but toward the end it did. Otherwise it just felt like a regular, good Q.T. movie. Also, it didn't have the same amount of scratches and jumps as Planet Terror. I really enjoyed that aspect of the first half, because it really added to the whole atmosphere of the Grindhouse experience. And I like the mysticism!
I loved these F-ing movies! They really give you an adrenaline rush.
