Critics Consensus

Grindhouse delivers exhilarating exploitation fare with wit and panache, improving upon its source material with feral intelligence.

Chicago Sun-Times

Grindhouse is both impressive and disappointing. From a technical and craft point of view it is first-rate; from its standing in the canon of the two directors, it is minor.

Rated: 2.5/4

Wall Street Journal

The whole thing runs a bit over three hours, goes by swiftly, contains countless film references and includes hilarious fake trailers.

An outrageously entertaining, slam-bang double feature

The one thing that became evident to me, while watching Tarantino's homage to sewer cinema, is that even while the flesh is melting and being blown apart with bullets, if the spirit is missing, there simply isn't much point.

Not just a movie but an event in its own right, Grindhouse is simply unmissable in its complete form.

I liked both.....you must look at these movies as homage to late 60s early 70s. In that aspect from an artistic point of view it hits the mark. Violence should always be expected with Tarantino and Rodriguez movies. It's not over the top it's on par with all of thier movies in that way. I love violence and can't understand why people that don't like some brutality would ever watch any of these directors movies. They are well established by now.

Horrible. Threw it in the trash after seeing woman purposefully beaten and killed and then body parts of next violence to women. Sick. Trash. Clearly I did not watch the entire movie but my ex-con friend I was watching with and I agreed, trash. Maybe it had some great action but we did not like taking in horrible to enjoy something later. Eject. Trash.

Grindhouse is fantastic and the concept well executed. Both films are very entertaining on their own but better with the overall presentation. They are B films but with master storytelling which I hope there is more to find of somewhere. The trailers alone are worth the watch. Not recommended for those who aren't fans of gore as Tom Savini's work is found throughout the films. Pretty Good stuff. Rating: 9/10

This is everything you would expect from this team of filmmakers. It is a campy, violent, unique homage' to the low budget horror films of the 1960's and 1970's. Everything about it fits the bill, including the way in which it is shot. A purposefully weak plot. A script filled with campy lines. Characters that are more caricatures. It is all so well done. What is also amazing is how this film is so ahead of the Zombie craze that followed with series like "The Walking Dead" and movies like, "Last Train to Busan". This has a terrific cast, all who are in on the joke. The special effects are great. Harder to make in 2007 than it would be today.
