Quentin Tarantino's sprawling homage to
action films of both the East and the West reaches its conclusion in this continuation of 2003's ultra-violent
Kill Bill Vol. 1. Having dispatched several of her arch-enemies in the first film,
The Bride (
Uma Thurman) continues in
Kill Bill Vol. 2 on her deadly pursuit of her former partners in the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, who, in a furious assault, attempted to murder her and her unborn child on her wedding day. As
The Bride faces off against allies-turned-nemeses
Budd (
Michael Madsen) and
Elle Driver (
Daryl Hannah), she flashes back to the day of her deadly wedding, and we learn of how she was recruited to join the DiVAS, her training under unforgiving martial arts master
Pai Mei (
Liu Chia-hui), and her relationship with Squad leader
Bill (
David Carradine), which changed from love to violent hatred. Originally planned as a single film,
Kill Bill grew into an epic-scale two-part project totaling more than four hours in length; as with the first film,
Kill Bill Vol. 2 includes appearances by genre-film icons
Sonny Chiba,
Michael Parks,
Larry Bishop, and
Sid Haig;
Wu-Tang Clan producer and turntablist
RZA and filmmaker and composer
Robert Rodriguez both contributed to the musical score.
