No, I didn't see that, either. I miss a lot of movies because I don't like to go alone.

You should try to get the DVD.

Carradine did a phenomenal job in both movies.

Even if for people who don't like Tarantino as a director it's a great action-adventure flick.

One film is mostly narrative, and back-story-exploring the chain of events that led each character to the position he/she occupies in the plot-while the other is mostly a shoot-'em-up kung fu/spaghetti Western.

But even the violent aspects of the film have been overhyped, IMO.

There's a lot of it-to be sure-but it's cartoon violence, more akin to Manga than Reservoir Dogs.

There are a few particularly gross scenes, but nothing that graphic.
