Grindhouse
We live here in a terrifying adventure through the 2007 film, which is derived from the American film industry 'grindhouse'. The title of the film seems to refer to the specialized cinemas in B films which exhibit a different model of filmmaking and often take advantage of films unexpectedly.

A weaponized adrenaline rush.

Grindhouse is both impressive and disappointing. From a technical and craft point of view it is first-rate; from its standing in the canon of the two directors, it is minor.

A paean to the exploitation films of the 70s, built more for titillation than story-telling, Grindhouse - especially the Rodriguez sequence - is nearly impossibly silly, not necessarily a bad thing, and is certainly not for everyone.

A rowdy jolt of quasi-nostalgic escapism.

Grindhouse is a great experience, packed with fun, thrills, chills and gore galore.

RR and QT do an excellent job of simulating the content of grindhouse offerings, but they don't simulate the experience or the giddy kick.

Delivers all the trashy, seat-squirming, eye-covering moments your fiercely racing heart craves. Forget about "guilty pleasures." Call it a pleasure, and leave it at that.

Shocking gore. Excessive violence. Gratuitous nudity. Exploding pustules. Hey, maybe your childhood was different than mine.

This is a movie theater experience. It needs to be seen at night, with a big screen and lots of friends.

Not just a movie but an event in its own right, Grindhouse is simply unmissable in its complete form.

The whole thing runs a bit over three hours, goes by swiftly, contains countless film references and includes hilarious fake trailers.
