Yep.

I was thinking the very same thing watching him.

Yep.

I thought she was really good. Great fun.
movieboy wrote:Walton Goggins was a disappointment for me. I liked him in "The Shield" but he wasn't convincing here - the accent seemed very exaggerated. But he was good in the last half hour. Zoe Bell is seen again after "Death Proof" in a small role.
I really like Goggins, and thought he was very good here too. Zoe Bell seemed completely superfluous and I find her annoying at the best of times. I'm assuming she's a friend of Quentin's, as she's no actress imo. I was willing someone to shoot her as soon as possible.
movieboy wrote:The thing about the General's son didn't really fit with the rest of the movie - seemed sort of unnecessarily inserted into the movie.
I'm pretty sure the story Warren told the general about his son didn't happen - or at least is wildly exaggerated for the purposes of getting a rise out of the general. That's no problem, but the fact that Tarantino showed the events as described by Warren is at odds with the fact that it's probably not true. It seemed weird to me.
Really enjoyed the movie though.
