Watch Death Proof For Free

Simply Perfect

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

The 70s grind-house satire may be enough for some and Kurt Russell is as commanding a screen-presence as he as ever been but this over-long, unfocused mess has far too little plot to keep you entertained and even lacks in the 'exploitation terror' it promises. The two-half approach in 'Death Proof (2007)' kills the pacing, too. None of the characters have any development, perhaps because of the structure or maybe because of the writing. The film is made to look like a bad 70s transfer, with grunge effects and skipped reels. These are just plain distracting and actually disappear just over halfway through because even Tarantino must have found them annoying and useless. Overall, the flick is a joyless experience that didn't keep me engaged at all. Easily the acclaimed director's worst attempt. 4/10

Filmgoers who are familiar with Quentin Tarantino knows that movies are his passion and most probably his sole love. 'Death Proof' is the product of Tarantino's love for movies which surpasses his drive for creating his own brand of movies. This is the work of a director who wants to recreate a forgotten genre that appealed to him once. Therefore 'Death Proof' has more elements of the slasher genre than Tarantino's own unique style of film-making. All that being said, 'Death Proof' is definitely not one of his finest works. The action elements in the movie are so wide apart and is ridden with many dialogues that are stuffed with references of the movies that either 'Death Proof' has drawn inspiration from or plays into the theme of the story. While these dialogues between the characters of the movie about random things is one of Tarantino's signature elements, in 'Death Proof' they seem out of place and sometimes even hollow which is worsened by weak performances and lack of chemistry between some of the characters. Despite these disappointments, when there is action it is top-notch and deserves to be applauded for its technical proficiency.To sum it all up, 'Death Proof', while does not engage you consistently, gives you just enough to distinguish itself from many of the other passable movies.

Plot: Two separate sets of voluptuous women are stalked at different times by a scarred stuntman who uses his "death proof" cars to execute his murderous plans.I'll be honest, the first 47 minutes of this film were painful to watch to me, from the annoying characters, to the pacing, and the long takes of uninteresting conversations by these women in the first half. The one positive note I could say from those minutes was the performance of Kurt Russell as Stuntman Mike who gives it his all and delivers a very good performance. This film really picks up when we're introduced to Zoë Bell, Rosario Dawson, Mary Elizabeth Winsted, and Tracie Thoms who were more interesting characters than the ones in the beginning, even though Zoë Bell plays herself, she actually managed to surprise me by being very good in this film. The only character of the 4 that I wish was written better was Tracie Thoms mostly because of how Tarantino writes the character not necessarily the actress who did the best that she could do.Overall, this is a decent film from Tarantino, it would've been great if he focused more on the characters from the second half than the first half. If you're a Tarantino fan and you haven't seen it, check it out it's worth a watch.

Mr. Quentin Tarantino brought back the classic slasher genre by making a film in the style of B-movies from back in the day. Starring Kurt Russell as a psycho who goes by the name of "Stuntman Mike", Death Proof sort of tricks the audience by focusing on a certain group of girls for roughly the first 40 minutes of the film until Stuntman Mike "Does his work". During the rest of the movie, Kurt Russell's character has his eyes set on another group of girls. This time however, things won't go as he expected. Compared to Tarantino's other work, Death Proof doesn't seem so great but in the end, it's a fun thriller to watch.
