KILL BILL VOL. 2
Miramax, $29.99, with deleted scene and featurette, available now.
Two stars
Can one word ruin an entire movie?
It can certainly crystallize doubts you have about a picture.
This particular word can't be printed in a family newspaper and is used as an endearment to Uma Thurman at the conclusion of Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill Vol. 2."
The first film was a rip-roarin' homage to Japanese samurai pics and westerns and cut a bloody trail through black and white, animation and glorious color as Thurman's Bride set out to avenge the deaths of her wedding party.
