Loud, fast, and proudly out of control, Grindhouse is a tribute to the low-budget exploitation movies that lurked at drive-ins and inner city theaters in the '60s and early '70s. Writers/directors Quentin Tarantino (Kill Bill) and Robert Rodriguez (Sin City) cooked up this three-hour double feature as a way to pay homage to these films, and the end result manages to evoke the down-and-dirty vibe of the original films for an audience that may be too young to remember them. Tarantino's Death Proof is the mellower of the two, relatively speaking; it's wordier (as to be expected) and rife with pulp/comic book posturing and eminently quotable dialogue. It also features a terrific lead performance by Kurt Russell as a homicidal stunt man whose weapon of choice is a souped-up car. Tarantino's affection for his own dialogue slows down the action at times, but he does provide showy roles for a host of likable actresses, including Rosario Dawson, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Rose McGowan, Sydney Poitier, and newcomer Zoe Bell, who was Uma Thurman's stunt double in Kill Bill. Detractors may decry the rampant violence and latch onto a sexist undertone in Tarantino's feature, but for those viewers who grew up watching these types of films in either theaters or on VHS, such elements will be probably be more of a virtue than a detrimental factor. -- Paul Gaita

I didn't actually get the chance to see "Death Proof" in theatres, though it escapes me as to why...Anyway, I first saw this on DVD. A friend of mine demanded that I see it, and since I'm a Tarantino fan, found this to be no hardship.
I think part of the problem why some people rated it so low is that most are all about the action--instant gratification, loves a drive thru and not a sit down at dinner type of person. This movie, though slow, is full of some of the most realistic and ... Read More

Another B movie Drive-In Theater Grindhouse production. I enjoyed Kurt Russell and the rest the cast in this fun 70s style horror emulating many of the movies back then like Death Race 2000 made in 1975. Although I didn't find this quite as entertaining as Grindhouse Planet Terror, I still think it is worth at least a rental and for this low low price for this two disc set I went ahead and bought a copy. Russell plays a heartless stunt driver bent on killing women. Unfortunately for him he runs across ... Read More

It's true; Death Proof starts out a bit slow. Don't quit on Tarantino, however, because he eventually delivers. If you've enjoyed his past works, stick around for the ride and you will be pleasantly entertained.
On one hand, this movie is ground-breakingly original. It's a seamless blend of various genres, with great camera work and character development, and an homage to old fashioned movie-making that is so devoted as to foregoing various modern film-making advances - so much so that ... Read More

You know I wish that I could agree with most of you on this movie. But I was kinda dissappointed with it.I just thought there was too much dialogue at the beginning I was so "bored".There were only maybe four scenes that I liked from the whole movie and they were all close to the end. I just wish the guy in the movie done more killing, or had a little more action in it just something better than the way it is. It was still pretty good in those four scenes though.Well not everyone agrees with everyone about ... Read More

Death Proof went on and on with boring elements of Tarrontino's yapping. At least the end of the film was exciting, but that wasn't enough for me to give it more stars.
