I'm mostly with docbungle on how Vol.2 turned out. I'm all for movies with plot and character development but a lot of it seemed forced and drawn out. Were the actors told to speak slowly and put heaps of attention-grabbing emphasis on every word? It seemed that way most of the time.
I think the dialogue could have used a bit of trimming. The actions scenes were fine. The part with Pai Mei was great, but I would have liked to see some more of it. the one single biggest problem I had was with her name. What kind of name is Beatrix Kiddo? Now I know why they kept it a secret. It instills a mingled sense of laughter and horror all at once.
