The Making of 'Kill Bill' is a 22 minute long documentary that is found on just about every Kill Bill: Vol. 1 DVD ever released anywhere so it's not hard to find & it was made for TV so I'd imagine a lot of people saw it that way.
This was obviously made before the films were released & is nothing more than a dull promotional piece that aired on TV to generate interest, there's nothing of any great surprise here.
A few of the cast say how good it was working with Quentin Tarantino & the man himself speaks about the films origins & the ideas behind it. He talks a little about the music including a long dull anecdote & where the film was shot.
The action & martial arts scenes barely get a mention, there's no real making of secrets revealed & the gory special effects aren't mentioned once. There's nothing on the films style including the Anime section & generally speaking this is as forgettable as they come. Nothing is said about why they ended up cutting the film in half & you feel most of the participants at the time of the interviews hadn't even seen the finished film yet.
As a free extra on a DVD it's good value but as a making of documentary this fails badly, the only interest is seeing a few brief behind the scenes clips & that's really the only thing going for it. A disappointment which tells the viewer virtually nothing about the Making of 'Kill Bill' which I'd hope was the whole point.
