Stephen King he has never hidden his passion for the world of cinema and television, nor has he ever avoided the temptation to analyze more or less well-known works, thus expressing his honest opinion: recently, for example, we have read those which according to the ‘ master of terror’ would be the similarities between Misery and Baby Reindeer.
Among the works judged by Stephen King is Kill Billto which the author dedicated a long review, published in Entertainment Weekly way back in 2007.”You’ve probably read good reviews of Kill Bill, including in this magazine. Steve says: Don’t believe it. Steve tells you that you should remember that movie critics see movies for free and also don’t have to pay a babysitter or $10 parking fee. They are therefore inclined to get excited about narcissistic stuff like Kill Bill, which advertises itself as Quentin Tarantino’s fourth film“, King wrote.
The article continued: “Kill Bill isn’t a benchmark for unpleasantness, like Mars Attacks can be! or Mommy Dearest; he’s just obtusely full of himself. Uma Thurman gives it her all, and she’s the best thing about the moviebut is ultimately forced to play a woman who is a label rather than a human being: she is, God save us, the Bride“. Positions also reiterated in the following paragraphs, in which pearls such as “The violence is choreographed as a water ballet by Esther Williams” or “There isn’t even an ending you can hold on to; we are simply told to stay tuned for more” it’s still “It’s certainly well made and the story holds some of our interest as it progresses, but it’s still boring, right?“. To tell the truth, however, we are talking about a writing dating back 17 years ago: it would be interesting to ask King if he has changed his opinion in the meantime, which in any case still represents an excellent example of slap-up criticism. Speaking of works that he liked, we finally leave you with our article on a horror film particularly appreciated by Stephen King.
