Wonder of wonders, my wife and I made it out today to catch this second half of Quentin Tarantino's most indulgent of cinematic extravaganzas. I don't think I agree with some other reviews that say it stands fine on its own, and I'm not even sure if I think it was better than the first half, but the two volumes taken together definitely a fantastic movie make.
It definitely seemed shorter than Vol. 1, and it was much more linear (versus the time-shifting jumparounds that Q.T. tends to do), but whereas the first half was the blood and gore half of the usual equation, this half had the dialogue we were missing... and more genuine heart that I would have ever thought Q.T. capable of putting on screen.
The best part? You walk out dreaming up how Vol. 3 would go...
