From Dusk Till Dawn in "Other" with 0 comments on Sat Mar 15, 2008 3:11 am
"From Dusk Till Dawn" (USA 1996, 108 min.) [3/2008]
Robert Rodriguez (D), Quentin Tarantino (S), Harvey Keitel, George Clooney, Quentin Tarantino
If nothing else, screenplays by Tarantino promise something "different" and this one certainly makes good on that promise. Actually these are more or less two films with the first half an action film with an "R" rating and a very slight look-and-feel of "Kill Bill Vol. I"; the second half is a B-horror-movie, but with fun dialogs, good acting, no story-line to speak of as well as the "X" rating.
As I haven't caught this film in the original English language, I need to guess at the translation of the final scene dialog:
Marin: (overlooking the scene of an indescribable massacre) "So who were these people, crazies?"
Clooney: "Crazies? Did you see them explode? Crazy people don't explode, it doesn't matter how crazy they are."
- Graded: 7.9 of 10 (possible points)
