movie review - Death Proof

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Tokyo, 2009.03.04

Well, 2009 is not off to a strong start, movie-wise. Death Proof is the last Tarantino movie I'll watch, I just did not appreciate the stories, the misogyny, the too-witty dialog, the tool-cool characters, and the winking references to stupid exploitation movies from the seventies that aren't worth recalling.

Not recommended.

I believe you find life such a problem because you think there are good people and bad people. You're wrong, of course. There are, always and only, the bad people, but some of them are on opposite sides.

—Terry Pratchett (as Lord Vetinari)
