...favored genre. But Vol. 2 makes a compelling case for a more serious interpretation of Tarantino’s talent, and the film justifies the otherwise vapid (and very cool) Vol. 1, which should never have existed as a separate film. Indeed, Tarantino’s lip fetish is itself enough to empower Vol. 2 with far more powerful scenes than Vol. 1: when a tied-up Beatrix must wrap her lips around a flashlight, the degrading image is worth more than any moment in the first volume. Here Tarantino employs the same technique as in Reservoir Dogs, where...

The commercial logistics of a four-hour movie aside, Kill Bill would have worked best as a single entity, the second half imbuing the first with a certain weight.

Drina L.

Bush, meanwhile, has made a fetish of constancy. He brags that he never revisits a decision or reads a poll. Intellectuals change their minds, he says; leaders know where they are going and act. "Steady leadership in times of change" is his campaign slogan, as though the steadiness is what matters, regardless of the direction in which he is leading. Voters have by now had plenty of opportunity to take the measure of his convictions, whether it's his immovable commitment to cut taxes or his resolve to take out Saddam Hussein. That has given the President a weird advantage...
...Escapist, with art by Eric Wight, along with several tongue-in-cheek tales by other comic-book writers and artists. Each one evokes a different period of the medium's history: Howard Chaykin turns in a '50s-style hard-boiled story of a red-baiting Senator with a diaper fetish; another, by Jim Starlin, flashes back to a trippy "cosmic" look of the '70s. The Escapist is sometimes amusing, but it lacks the emotional ambition of its literary source. --By Andrew D. Arnold
