Kill Bill

Kill Bill



Next Friday, September - our translation 12, this crime thriller Kill Bill hits theaters across America, starring Robert De Niro and Al Pacino. This marks their third collaboration after The Godfather Part II and Heat, though it’s actually the first time we’re seeing them share the screen for most of a movie.

The story centers on two detectives—partners played by De Niro and Pacino—who are digging into whether a recent string of murders is linked to an old case they thought they had already closed.

The cast is pretty stacked too; alongside De Niro and Pacino, you've got Carla Gugino, John Leguizamo, Donnie Wahlberg, Brian Dennehy, and 50 Cent (who, if I'm being honest, makes the movie a bit of a hard sell for me).

Sadly, the early reviews for the movie are pretty much a disaster...😢😢

Writing this review feels incredibly depressing. I’ve known the hype surrounding this one has been trash for months, but I honestly thought the crew behind Kill Bill might actually knock it out of the park. I mean—come on—you've got Robert De Niro and Al Pacino teaming up for a cop movie. How bad could it possibly be? Unfortunately, the answer is: pretty damn bad.

They're giving it a 5.5/10

I just watched an incredible movie, honestly have no clue why critics were so hard on it.

btw what's the American translation?

The film. I have no idea how a script like this managed to land Robert De Niro and Al Pacino... It feels like something starring Lorenzo Lamasa and his brother instead.

I don't know... I feel like we've seen these themes played out so many times before... overall, the movie was just okay for me... nothing to write home about...
The ending is actually pretty interesting, even if you can pretty much figure out where things are headed halfway through the film.
At the end of the day, seeing these two actors work together is always a draw, regardless of how thin the script might be. 🙂
@ Carol Harris64 - Our translation would have been RIGHTEOUS KILL... now I wonder what they'll settle on for the theatrical title here in the States... 🙂

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling pretty indifferent. Both Robert De Niro and Al Pacino have become mere caricatures of their former selves and the iconic characters they once played.

I have absolutely no intention of sitting through that again.🤷

I caught this one the other day, and honestly, it didn't really blow me away. The only real highlight was seeing Robert De Niro and Al Pacino sharing the screen again. I actually think those two would be incredible in a comedy together—maybe something like Meet the Parents 3. 😁 😁 😬

The ending is interesting, even if you can pretty much guess where it's going halfway through.
At the end of the day, watching those two work together is always a blast, regardless of how weak the script is. 🙂
@ Carol Harris64 - Our translation would've been JUSTIFIED MURDER... now I wonder what they'll settle on for the US theatrical title... 🙂

Hehe, I know what "Kill Bill" means, I'm just wondering what the title is in theaters if it's already playing.
They didn't even bother translating it; they just kept the English title.

I honestly only sat through this one because I was dying to see Al Pacino and Robert De Niro on screen together... but man, the script was a total disaster, and the movie itself? Just a complete mess.

Such a massive disappointment 😢

The film is just okay. Nothing to write home about, really. It feels somewhat forced, as if the whole thing was cobbled together solely to get Robert De Niro and Al Pacino on screen at the same time. I have to admit, the ending manages to salvage it slightly, but even then... it’s certainly not something you’d feel compelled to watch a second time.
And honestly, where on earth did they find that actor playing 50 Cent? He can barely deliver a line of dialogue properly.😂

Total garbage—I have no idea what they were even trying to achieve here...👎

Bad movie.
Even having Robert De Niro and Al Pacino in the cast didn't save this one—not even a little... plus they really tried to sell us on the idea that De Niro can still pull off those intense roles constantly... like, how? Yes/no. 😁

Total waste of time.

It isn’t exactly trash—not by any means—but I really feel like they shouldn't have cast this particular group... These actors are clearly meant for cinematic masterpieces, especially when you consider their collective caliber. That said, it does seem like it could work as a solid TV series...

What a shame! 😢

The two leads are top-tier, but man, that script is absolute garbage. 😉

To be honest, I watched this entire thing just for those two, not because I cared about the plot, and I don't regret a second of it. You have to respect the fact that these guys are pushing 60 and they still deliver performances that hit harder than Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, or whatever other trendy Hollywood crowd is currently riding a wave of hype during their prime. At the same time, it would be pretty naive to expect them to bring that same explosive energy they had back in The Godfather Part II. I won't say for certain—because you never know when a movie might actually catch you off guard—but there’s a real possibility I might just stop watching American movies altogether once this particular generation of actors passes away (I'm talking about heavyweights like Anthony Hopkins, Jack Nicholson, Dustin Hoffman, Morgan Freeman, and Samuel L. Jackson). It’s also perfectly clear to me why the critics are tearing them apart. Critics always tend to go after these types of projects involving veteran actors in their later years; everyone expects them to stay eternally youthful and demands that every single thing they touch lives up to the legendary status they earned decades ago. Now, look, the film itself isn't even in the same league as The Godfather Part II or Heat, but I’d still find it more watchable than some of those overhyped, critically acclaimed duds that have been released lately. For anyone who genuinely loves this specific duo, I’d highly recommend checking out 88 Minutes. It’s by the same director, though it features just Al Pacino paired up with Amy Brenneman (who was also in Heat). In my opinion, that one is actually the better film.

Honestly, what a disaster of a movie! The only reason I didn't turn it off halfway through was because Carla Gugino was actually on screen. She’s the sole thing keeping this from being a total waste of time.🙂

I actually avoided this one because of all the bad reviews, but I finally sat down to watch it and honestly? It’s a really solid movie. Did anyone else catch how they basically hand you the killer right at the start? In that scene where Robert De Niro is watching the footage, his first line is basically saying, "My name is David Fisk and I killed 14 people..." or something along those lines. That means everything he's saying on that tape is actually about Al Pacino. I knew immediately it wasn't him; otherwise, the whole thing would be way too easy. Personally, I thought the woman was the killer.

David Walker4 said:I watched this movie strictly for those two, not for the plot, and I don't regret it one bit. Honestly, these guys are in their 60s and they still deliver performances that outshine Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and whatever trendy young crowd is currently trending in their prime. You have to respect that. At the same time, it would be pretty naive to expect them to be just as powerhouse as they were in The Godfather Part II. I won't say anything for certain—I love being surprised—but I might actually stop watching American movies altogether once this generation of actors passes away. I'm talking about the heavy hitters like Anthony Hopkins, Jack Nicholson, Dustin Hoffman, Morgan Freeman, and Samuel L. Jackson. It’s a scary thought. And look, I totally get why the critics are tearing into them. Critics always go after these projects when veteran actors reach a certain age. Everyone expects them to stay eternally youthful, demanding that every single thing they touch lives up to the legendary status they earned decades ago. It's unfair.Look, let's be real here. This movie just doesn't hold a candle to The Godfather Part II, and it certainly isn't touching Heat. It's not even in the same league.Honestly, it’s a much more engaging watch than some of those overhyped, critically acclaimed blockbusters that have been flooding theaters lately. I don't get the obsession with the big studio fluff. If you actually appreciate top-tier acting, I’d highly recommend this one—especially if you're a fan of this particular duo. "88 Minutes." Just thinking about that flick makes my blood boil a little. It’s one of those movies that sticks in your throat. You sit there, watching the clock tick down, feeling that heavy, suffocating tension. It’s relentless. I don't know if it's the pacing or just the sheer weight of the premise, but it stays with you long after the credits roll. A real gut punch. It’s the same director, actually. Only this time, you've got Al Pacino starring alongside Amy Brenneman—who, if you recall, was also in Heat. Personally? I think this one tops the other.

You can't even put them in the same sentence as Heat. It's not even a fair fight. But if you want to talk comparisons, you could maybe look at 88 Minutes—they’re equally mediocre.

I didn't sit through the whole thing, but I can tell already the movie is a total waste of time.
