Oh well, I finally saw this movie.
Let me start by saying that that GoGo chick isn\'t hot. Her nose looks like it belongs on an eagle. You people just *fap fap fap* because of the school girl uniform. 
About the movie... I wasn\'t that impressed. I\'m not saying it\'s totally bad, but I don\'t think it\'s good either. It was average. I mean, stylistically (is that even a word ) it\'s good, the fights are alright (although there are only so many ways you can kill someone with a sword), but the movie just didn\'t grab me. I was never like "oooh that\'s just cool/funny/great" or whatever.
Bring on vol. 2.
6.5/10.
Just watched Volume 1 last night and have to say the same.
Finally got round to renting on VHS (all the DVD where out) it and have to say I am kind of glad that I didn’t rush out and buy the DVD before I watched it.
The thing that ruined it for me was the film’s beyond the call of Duty OTT violence.
Yes the fight scenes where spectacular and the action was just about on the right level, but for some reason it just loved to linger to long on the blood letting to the point where you felt sorry for the “brides” victims.
example
Coppermouths Death… it still can’t put my finger on what switched may emotions from relief on the brides part to pity for coppermouths death.
It could have been the slow mo over egging close up with the shocked expression on her face.
Or it could have been the fact that her 7 year old daughter walked in on it.
Or it could have been the Brides reaction of the daughter and what she says to her.
The rest of the film was fairly inconsistent and moved from moments of greatness (love the magna flask back) to moment of utter pish.
But still ... Roll on Part 2...although after watching part one... i don\'t think i will be parting £5.50 per ticket to see it at the theatre … I’ll just wait till it go’s rental.
Total Score...
2.5 out of 5
