I have major issues with this film...

1. Tarantino has taken a real life tragedy and completely changed the story. There was no need as its pretty brutal anyway.

2. They make Bruce Lee look like an arrogant wimp.

3. Not much happens for a v. Long time. I don't mind slice of life, but this was slice of wrists...

4. Tarantino has disappeared up his own arse with dialogue.

The ending was Tarantino, almost at his best.
