  • Inglourious Basterds

    Movie Review | Ali | 19th August 2009

    Love him or hate him, Quentin Tarantino knows how to make movies that get people talking about cinema. Granted, the people doing the talking are usually the characters in his movies, but his passion for the medium is infective - if not always effective.

  • Tarantino not done Killing Bill

    Movie Feature | | 11th August 2009

    Quentin Tarantino has been flapping his lip about returning to finally finish what he started with Kill Bill. Can the man not write a full movie from start to finish?

  • Grindhouse

    Movie Review | Ali | 9th March 2008

    If you're looking for proof that America is a nation dangerously low on brain cells, then don't look to their president, their love of NASCAR or the success of Two And A Half Men - look at the cinema-going public and their increasingly erratic choices.

  • Kill Bill Vol. 2

    Movie Review | Ali | 12th September 2004

    Not many people in Hollywood would have the audacity to split their latest movie into two parts, but if there's one person we could forgive, it's fanboy favourite Quentin Tarantino. Last September saw the arrival of the first instalment, kicking, screaming and wielding deadly Hattori Hanzo steel. Now Volume Two has arrived, bu...

  • Kill Bill Vol. 1

    Movie Review | Ali | 5th September 2004

    Whether you're inclined to believe Harvey Weinstein's view that it was too good to be slimmed down, or the general consensus (that we're being forced to pay twice to see what is essentially just the one movie), Kill Bill has been unceremoniously chopped in two parts - one Eastern in style, one Western. Volume One is Tarantino's...
