Death Proof

Point I Fell Asleep: 0:55 out of 1:54 (48%)
Location: Home
Time I Started Movie: Midnight
IMDB: http://imdb.com/title/tt1028528/

First off, I take back what I said about Rose McGowan. Well, sorta. Brunette Rose in "Planet Terror" = HOT! Blonde Rose in "Death Proof" = typical blonde actress = average. Secondly, this movie has the best thrilling car chase scene I've ever watched. Yes, this includes "Bourne Ultimatum" and the "Transporter" movies. Quentin didn't use all the special effects and explosions like modern movies; he puts his own spin on it, and once you watch the movie, you'll understand. Five minutes into the movie and you instantly know it's a Tarantino movie because you have 4 girls in a car just talking Tarantino-style. It's great. It's almost like "Pulp Fiction" with girls. I don't think this movie is a classic though. If I were to rank the Tarantino movies, it would go "Kill Bill" > "Pulp Fiction" > "From Dusk Till Dawn" > "Death Proof" > "Desperado" > "Reservoir Dogs" > "Jackie Brown." I know I left out a couple others, but these were the biggest ones I think. Although I fell asleep, I really did enjoy this movie.
