Hi, I'm new to TFP, but I just have to say having watched Grindhouse, and then watching the movies after they were split up (Box office results being what they were), Deathproof is a much better film when watched solo. It's not great, but it moved up in my book from garbage to watchable. The extra reel didn't change my opinion. It added fluff. It was just this time, I wasn't on an adrenaline high from the previous movie. The movie you watch before Deathproof actually makes a huge difference. I watched Meet Joe Black before I went to see Deathproof, and it helped. Deathproof was actually exciting! So, if Tarentino was smart, he would of had Meet Joe Black playing in his Grindhouse double-feature not a movie that dominated his attempt at a car chase, action movie.
