A recently retired master assassin, The Bride (played by Thurman) is gunned down on her wedding day by Bill (David Carradine of the 1970s American TV series Kung Fu), her onetime boss and lover. She wakes up from a coma four years later and resolves to wreak vengeance by hunting down the killers in Bill's posse?a multinational Charlie's Angels-style trio called the Deadly Viper Assassination Squad, played by Daryl Hannah, Lucy Liu and Vivica Fox. Eventually, one can safely assume, The Bride will eliminate Bill himself.

MovieWeb Reviews:

"I want my ending right now! Yellowstone's ready to blow. The Universe is in trouble. There's a very likely chance that none of us will ever know if Uma Thurman kills Bill or not. It just doesn't make sense for us to wait. "

- B. Alan Orange

"This careful balance between subtle character work, graceful choreography, brutal confrontation and highly-caricatured violence is what makes Kill Bill so enjoyable to both hardcore fanatics and passive viewers alike."

- Christopher Monfette
