Movie reviews: Grindhouse

by Blake Thomas Miller

Created on: July 22, 2010   Last Updated: July 23, 2010

                 Grindhouse was a stellar film. Death Proof seems to be the longest music video ever with the engine grinding in the open road. The car itself, is the best actor, because of it's noises it had made. It was an era thing. It was like a tragedy play, when you know it's just a freaking actor on a stage and, nobody is dying. The special effects you must say, pretty much captivates the imagination. The grotesque terror pretty much makes your palms sweaty. The art of horror is portrayed beautifully. The truth is, if these charlies angels died, this stuntman mike doesn't stand a chance. It would provoke a national outrage. 

           With him, evading the law is absolutely fictional. Maybe, what's attractive about the film is the dialogues, with its cream and puff with the cherry on the top. They use fancy slap stick words to describe a manner. It gets old after a while. Honestly, the film is about a cocky guy trying to win the favor of the audience and, pin the badness on the girls, by building a case that they deserve it. The film undetectably pushes our buttons. The race card was used and please, we aren't racist.  There was a NASCAR circuit nonsense that got him, Stuntman Mike a free pass from the law.

Death Proof was playing on the edges of our imaginations. The film was absolutely like a high grade pot. The music, the car, the jukebox and, the dialogues is why I pin the film to be a music video. It is a grainy film to start with. This gypsy girl was sort of a harlot and, had a reggae beat to her. There is a very offensive comment which says "Beggars can't be choosers." which would be like, reminding somebody that they had cancer. This blond dyed hair girl must have hurt somebody feelings. Women have to protect themselves for certain. It is absolutely laughable, because none of this is real. It is just smoke and, screen. Fake.  Special Effects. Every prop, t skirt and, style was designed for psychological purposes.

           Although, the electronic gadget with fonts that echos the days of Apple computers obviously put this film in the early 90s to mid 90s. The "local DJ" girl was texting a guy named Chris.  The stage was set in in Austin, Texas. You would have to drive a car a certain distance to be able to appreciate film that has something to do with cars. You would have to slap
