Sin City was awesome which Rodriguez directed. I actually kept hearing though that Rodriguez's film was better then Tarantino's in Grindhouse. I guess it's all opinion though.

Never understood the obsession with Tarintino's movies.. They've always seemed really dumb to me.. Kind of like Kevin Smith's movies, many are obsessed and I am not one of them.

I liked Kill Bill 1 and 2. thats it for Q Tarintino movies I liked. Grindhouse looks too much like fake, fantasy violence to me.

I don't think tarentino is that great either, but i find kevin smith movies to be funny and all the early ones were really well written. Clerks and mallrats are probably my favorites. The new stuff, however lacks the charm the movies he was making when he was broke had.

Yeah, Kill Bill was OK.. Not great, but OK.. Tolerable I guess.

I love Tarintino movies. Pulp Fiction was great. My fav movie of all time. Jackie Brown was a hit in my book too. Being a fan..i wasn't that impressed with Grindhouse. Rodriguez isn't that great of a director in my opinion. Sin City was awesome though. All in all Grindhouse: c+
