I spent 2 hours soaking in every spoken word, investing myself in Bill's character, and Beatrix's love/hatred of him, that to have it over so quickly was a complete let down.

Totally disagree. That ending fight was PERFECT if you ask me. Part of the "battle" was their conversation. He knew it was invevitable that they would fight, but he had to justify what he did. The whole "what would you expect from a killer" thing was great. In addition, the Clark Kent thing was beautiful.
The actual battle showed her unexpected superior technique. The "now I am the Master" theme is always a good one in classic Kung Foo. Between getting shot with the truth serum, the gun that Bill had and just the whole advantage throughtout the movie that he enjoyed, it was a classic battle and wholly orignial at the same time. Great stuff.
Oh yeah - I don't think the deadly assasin Viper Squad would kill all those people with guns. I think they would have at least used swords and they may have allowed some of the innocent to leave first. They seem to have some honor (it is not like the crazy 88s or whatever came after The Bride with machine guns or anything.)
I dunno. Great movie either way. . .
