There is much to admire but little to love. Tarantino is not a director who engages on an emotional level.

Consensus: Talkier and less action-packed than Vol. 1, Kill Bill Vol. 2, nevertheless, delivers the goods for those expecting a satisfying conclusion to this two-parter.
Theatrical Release:23-04-2004
Synopsis: The second and final volume in Quentin Tarantino's KILL BILL series is another stylish, sprawling masterwork. VOLUME 2 picks up where the first film left off, as The Bride (Uma Thurman) resumes her... [More]

Reviews for Kill Bill Vol. 2
1 - 20 (sorted by critic A-Z; UK critics are listed first)
Top CriticStrong back-stories add a viscerally entertaining punch--scary, jarring, funny, touching--that keeps a smile firmly fixed on our face.
04/18/04
The death of her daughter is her driving inspiration. The Bride is motivated by love, and that theme is even more resonant in Vol. 2.
04/19/04
Go see it, laugh and flinch in all the right places, have a ball, but don’t expect to remember this for years to come.
05/14/04
Top CriticThis is, to cut to the chase, a masterpiece.
04/13/04
Top CriticAlone, or stitched onto the end of Volume 1, the second part of Kill Bill could not feel more satisfying.

Top CriticPeerless finale to a brilliant revenge tale. Tarantino is a master!
04/10/04
"Kill Bill: Volume 2" commits the ultimate crime of being boring. What could have been one of the best action films of all time turns into a mediocre, frustrating film.
04/16/04
Kill Bill is a triumphant achievement in American film, a cut-and-paste epic celebrating the crudest and most noblest human traits.
04/16/04
A powerhouse movie.

V1 Bad - V2 Good
04/19/04
Technically, it's an exhilarating piece of filmmaking.
04/15/04
Treads emotional waters that barely rippled the surface of Volume 1.
04/16/04
'Tarantino deja un buen sabor de boca con esta cinta que es bastante más sólida e interesante que su antecesora.'
07/20/04
While Vol. 1 was energetic and entertaining, Vol. 2 is elegant and intelligent making the overall experience powerful and memorable.
04/15/04
Simply one of the best films, period.
04/16/04
Maybe if Tarantino hadn’t sprinted so hard early on, he wouldn’t have run out of gas right when it mattered.
