Holy Groundhog Day Batman! I think the critics and us users are hard up for movies. This ain't no 84/8.3. This is a 50/5.0 at best. Modestly funny, but I guess there's not much out there these days.

Slow, slow, politically biased movie with questionable scenarios. Couldn't even watch past 45 minutes. Why is a prison warden all of a sudden upset over the death penalty? Why in the world would they have some hack doctor be botching an execution? Why should we be meant to feel that a self confessed cop killer is the victim. And why are all the people working at the prison a bunch of drunks in a local bar. Give me a break. This is one of the worst, contrived, movies I've seen in a while.

Look, plain and simple this movie is a lot of fun! Lots of action, lots of blood, humor, a like-able heroine, a fun snooty villain. Great "stay at home" entertainment. At $19.95, uh, what the heck. I made up for it with cheaper beer and popcorn than what I would have paid in a theater.

This movie has great nostalgia and plot surprises. However, the movie moves too slow and is too long. The story telling is pretty good but not as engaging as many of the previous Tarantino movies.
