	I'm with Peter. It rocks.
	For a start, its absolutely loaded with references to old 

Kung Fu films and other asian cinema, plus various other films, mostly 70s tv and film. If you are a fan of this stuff, that definitely adds to the experience.

        Like most Tarantino films, you have to appreciate it on one level as a film about parts of pop culture colliding with rawer depictions of the same themes. Or something like that.

	And it rocks.
	Which is to say that, although there might be a lot more to 

the film than simply an action packed blood soaked revenge melodrama, Tarantino knows thats no excuse not to do the action right.

	Cheers
