Entertainment Reviews:
4 stars out of 5 -- DEATH PROOF is a berserk and memorable thrill ride....Tarantino switches to action mode, building to a white-knuckle cat-and-mouse chase that barnstorms to a climax.
Empire
Rating: 3/5 --
With its scratchy print, jerky editing and retro title sequence, Quentin Tarantino's fifth film bends over backwards to establish its Seventies sexploitation-flick credentials.

Independent (UK)
Rating: 2/5 --
A horror-comic splatterfest set in 2007, but somehow filmed in 1972, about a posse of women taking revenge on a murderous, misogynist stunt-driver.

Guardian
Rating: 3.5/4 --
Death Proof is superbly made. There's a terrible tension watching these beautiful and spirited young women getting too close to the flame, followed by enormous relief when the mood changes in the second story.

Sydney Morning Herald
Rating: 1/5 --
The dialogue with which Tarantino is usually adept is disastrously clunky, the filmmaking largely without flair and even the apeing of the smears and scratches of the schlock originals seems ridiculous.
London Evening Standard
Rating: C- --
A mindless action film meant solely for Tarantino fans.

4 stars out of 5 -- [T]he overall effect is quietly subversive. It is Tarantino's first art movie.

Product Description:
Master director Quentin Tarantino (PULP FICTION) indulges his inner fanboy by paying homage to his favorite B-movies in DEATH PROOF. Stuntman Mike (Kurt Russell) stalks beautiful women with his deadly vintage car, but when he picks a trio of tough girls (Rosario Dawson, Tracie Thoms, and Zoe Bell), he learns they aren't such easy prey. As with any Tarantino film, there are plenty of nods to pop culture. Most of the scenes are deliberately short on plot development, the dialogue comes thick and fast throughout, and the film stock is often cleverly manipulated to perfectly replicate the B-movie aesthetic. DEATH PROOF was originally released as part of the GRINDHOUSE double feature with Robert Rodriguez's PLANET TERROR.
