Death Proof Director: Quentin Tarantino Writer: Quentin Tarantino Cast: Kurt Russel, Venessa Ferlito, Sydney Poiter
Plot: At just 80 minutes Death Proof is Quentin’s shortest film to date, and somehow his most interminable. Overly chatty and under-compelling, its tale of a stuntman/serial killer (a vehicular-homicidal maniac) lulls when it should wow and stalls when it should kick into high gear. The film is broken into two halves, the first concerning a band of shallow 20-something females on a bar-hopping night in Austin, Texas, and the second a group of Hollywood types killing time in-between set-calls while on location. Timings: Seef Cineplex II at 12 noon, 2pm, 4pm, 6pm, 5pmm, 8pm, 10pm, 12 MN
