I don't mind the absurd geysers of blood, but having it be bright red just ruins it for me, and I also don't care for the narration. But it's a solid, watchable revenge flick that keeps rolling along without losing steam. Some excellent photography, including great use of color and some killer zooms. Groovy modern soundtrack. Fun to watch either on its own merits or just to play "count the things Quentin stole".
