GRINDHOUSE

GrindHouse - Movie review:

great quick review on what Grindhouse is all about. If you were hesitant to see this movie, definitely watch this full youtube video to see what to expect and why you should see it in the theaters instead of DVD. Let me just say this...

BEST $8.75 I EVER SPENT!

It was honestly the best movie theater experience i ever had! The whole theater was cheering, clapping, screaming, laughing through the whole thing. There was so many 'omg holy shit amazing' scenes and i can honestly say it's one of the few films i have seen in theaters that i had a smile on my face through the whole thing. It was so fucking genius, exactly like the old Grindhouse films. I strongly recommend seeing it in theaters with a lot of people with a good sense of humor. I have seen it 3 times in theaters so far, with 3 different groups of friends, and i would easily pay to see it again.

Planet Terror was a more 'fun' movie, a lot of non-stop over-the-top action, but Death Proof was the better film. Death Proof stayed much more true to the slasher grindhouse movies that had a lot of dialogue in scenes, some people were turned off by it. As much as the dialogue was a bit boring, it was needed to get you to connect to the characters and realize how real they were before all hell breaks lose and their lives end. I also have to give props to the conversation they have in the dinner, i didn't notice until my third time seeing it, but the camera never cuts that entire time. That must have been extremely difficult to shoot, mainly difficult for the actresses. But the end is the best payoff EVER, well worth sitting through some 'boring' parts. One of the best car chases ever and the final seconds of the film will make you feel happier than anything. Remember that there is no CGI in Death Proof and all the stunts are real. Fucking loved it.

"Grindhouse Voted one of the Best Films of All Time"
